Dual Fuel
Dual fuel refers to systems or engines that use two different types of fuel to operate. Here are some common applications:
Dual Fuel Engines: These engines can run on a combination of two fuels, typically diesel and natural gas. The diesel fuel acts as the ignition source, while the natural gas provides the bulk of the energy 1 2. This setup can improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.
Dual Fuel Heating Systems: These systems combine an electric heat pump with a gas furnace. The heat pump is used for heating and cooling during milder weather, while the gas furnace takes over during extremely cold conditions 3. This hybrid approach maximizes energy efficiency and comfort throughout the year.
Dual fuel systems offer flexibility, cost savings, and environmental benefits by optimizing the use of different fuel sources based on availability and efficiency 2.
Tamworth (/ˈtæmwərθ/) is a large market town and borough in Staffordshire, England, 14 miles (23 km) north-east of Birmingham and on the West Coast Main Line. The town adjoins Warwickshire to the south and east, Lichfield to the north and west and local junctions of the M6 Toll motorway. It takes its name from the River Tame, which flows through it. Its resident population (mid-2019 est.) was 76,696.
Tamworth was historically divided between Warwickshire and Staffordshire until 1889, when the town was placed entirely in Staffordshire.[1]
Tamworth hosts a simple but elevated 12th century castle, a well-preserved medieval church (the Church of St Editha) and a Moat House. Tamworth was the capital of the Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of Mercia during the Heptarchy of seven kingdoms and throughout its later, greater, form.
The town's industries include logistics, engineering, clothing, brick, tile and paper manufacture. Until 2001 one of its factories was Reliant, which produced the Reliant Robin three-wheeler car and the Reliant Scimitar sports car.
The Snowdome, a prototype real-snow indoor ski slope is in Tamworth and 1.7 miles (2.7 km) south is Drayton Manor Theme Park and one of the many marinas serving the Coventry Canal and Birmingham and Fazeley Canal which combine south of the town.
