Definition of waste heat in English English dictionary: Waste heat refers to heat produced by machines and technical processes for which no useful application is found, and is regarded as a waste by-product. A fraction of input energy is always converted to heat by friction between machine parts and other dissipative processes such as liquid friction (see: viscosity). Heat production in bearings can be minimised by the use of rolling-element bearings; Heat energy produced in an energy conversion or transfer process that is lost during conversion or transfer and is not available for useful purposes; an unusable form of energy which inevitably results from energy transformation; is energy that must be dissipated to the atmosphere from a process such as the heat transferred from condensing steam in the condenser of a steam power plant is energy that must be dissipated to the atmosphere from a process such as the heat transferred from condensing steam in the condenser of a steam power plant; (heat) Heat that is left after useful ENERGY generation F - chaleur perdue [1] S - calor perdido; Any heat produced in excess of useful heat required in a process that has to be exhausted or is allowed to dissipate
waste heat boiler: A boiler that receives all or a substantial portion of its energy input from the combustible exhaust gases from a separate fuel-burning process
