Radiators, convectors, and baseboard and finned tube units are types of heat-distributing devices commonly used in steam and low temperature water heating systems. ... In general, these types of heat-distributing units should be placed at the points of greatest heat loss of the space. ... For example, such units are commonly located under windows, along exposed walls, and at door openings. ... The term "baseboard" ... refers to heat-distributing units designed for installation along the bottom of walls, in place of the conventional baseboard. They may be made of cast-iron, with a substantial portion of the front face directly exposed to the room, or with a finned tube element in a sheet metal enclosure. They operate with gravity-circulated room air. ... Baseboard heat-distributing units are divided into two types: radiant-convector and finned tube. 5, record 1, English, - baseboard%20heater

A rotary dryer consists of a cylinder slightly inclined to the horizontal and rotated on suitable bearings. The rotary action of the cylinder serves to convey wet material from one end to the other while passing hot gases axially through the dryer shell. The contact of the solids and gases is further improved by means of flights arranged within the dryer shell so as to shower the wet material through the hot gas stream. 1, record 2, English, - direct%20rotary%20dryer
