    摘要: A fuel-fired water heater has a three-pass condensing type heat exchanger disposed within its tank and having a central vertical first pass flue pipe separated into upper and lower portions by an internal dividing structure. Respectively coupled to the upper and lower first pass flue pipe portions are circumferentially spaced series of vertical second and third pass flue pipes which circumscribe the central flue pipe within the tank. During firing of the water heater, combustion gases from a power burner are sequentially forced downwardly through the upper portion of the first pass flue pipe, upwardly through the second pass flue pipes to an upper plenum external to the tank, and then downwardly through the third pass flue pipes and the lower central pipe portion into a bottom plenum external to the tank for discharge from the water heater.

    摘要: A fuel-fired commercial water heater has a three-pass condensing type heat exchanger disposed within its tank and having a vertical flue connected at its lower end to a central collector plenum horizontally circumscribed by an outer plenum to which an exhaust pipe is coupled. A series of vertical tube structures are disposed above and intercommunicate the central and outer collector plenums. The outlet of a fuel burner is coupled to the upper end of the flue and is operative to sequentially flow combustion gases downwardly through the flue into the central collector plenum, upwardly and then downwardly through the tube structures into the outer collector plenum and then outwardly through the exhaust pipe.

    摘要: A fuel-fired water heater has a single pass condensing-type heat exchanger disposed within its water storage tank portion. The heat exchanger includes a primary non-condensing portion defined by a combustion chamber positioned in an upper interior portion of the tank and having a spaced series of vertical tubes depending therefrom. A secondary condensing portion of the heat exchanger is defined by a plenum having a top side connected to the bottom ends of the vertical tubes, and a bottom side from which a downwardly coiled flue tube depends. A fuel burner generates hot combustion gases that are sequentially flowed into the combustion chamber and then downwardly through the balance of the heat exchanger in a single pass.

    摘要: The invention relates to a condensation heat exchanger. The inventive heat exchanger consists of two co-axial helicoidal tube bundles which are positioned end-to-end, one of said bundles (2a) serving as a primary exchanger and the other (2b) serving as a secondary exchanger. Each of the aforementioned bundles comprises a tube and/or a group of flat tubes which are mounted inside a gas-impermeable casing (1). Moreover, means are provided to circulate at least one fluid to he heated inside the tubes, the casing (1) being equipped with a gas exhaust sleeve (122). In this way, a first hot gas, known as the main gas, which is, for example, generated by a burner (6), passes radially through the voids in the bundles. A deflector system (7) ensures that said main hot gas first passes through the primary exchanger (2a) from inside outwards and, subsequently, the secondary exchanger (2b) from outside inwards, after which it is discharged from the exchanger through the above-mentioned sleeve (122). The deflector (7) comprises two adjoining parallel plates (7a, 7b) which are made from a thermally-insulating material. In this way, a second (additional) hot gas can be introduced between the aforementioned plates in order to heat the fluid circulating in the secondary exchanger or to contribute to the heating thereof. The inventive condensation exchanger is suitable, for example, for domestic use.

Galvanic corrosion or stay current corrosion caused by using heterogeneous metal between the present and latent heat exchangers is suppressed, to thereby enhance durability of a product and thus heighten reliability of the product.

    摘要: Devices and methods for controlling a boiler system. One illustrative method includes controlling the bypass temperature by increasing the firing rate of the boiler. Further methods include bypass temperature control methods wherein both regular and fast control methods are used, where the regular method operates to control bypass temperature by using, first, a bypass valve, and second, possible increases in firing rate. The fast control method responds to particular situations suggesting potential condensation in a primary heat exchanger to increase firing rate without waiting for a bypass valve to fully open. Further embodiments include controllers programmed for or containing programming for performing steps of the method embodiments, as well as systems incorporating such controllers.

    摘要: An air-proportionality type boiler is provided. Since the air-proportionality type boiler directly controls a current proportionality gas valve according to an amount of air by using a low-price AC air blower, a low-price current proportionality gas valve and a low-price airflow sensor, a gas supply amount can be adjusted with respect to all ranges of the airflow amount. Also, an appropriate calorie required for proportionally controlling a present circulation water temperature to a set temperature, can be supplied. The boiler can be safely ignited to perform a combustion operation under the optimal condition although abnormal weathers and conditions. Accordingly, since a combustion performance is enhanced, combustion efficiency is high and a fuel cost can be saved.
