Thermosiphon

A thermosiphon is a method used to move liquids, often in heating systems, relying on the natural movement of fluid due to temperature differences. When a liquid is heated, it becomes lighter and rises, while cooler, denser liquid sinks. This creates a continuous flow without the need for pumps. Commonly found in solar water heaters and radiators, thermosiphons efficiently circulate water by utilizing gravity and thermal expansion, ensuring even heating and energy savings in various applications.
