    摘要： A water heater appliance may include a casing, a tank, a temperature sensor, a heating system, and a controller. The controller may be in operative communication with the heating system. The controller may be configured to initiate a heating cycle. The heating cycle may include determining a future standby event and determining a contemporary depletion state from a plurality of set depletion states. The plurality of set depletion states may include a steady state and one or more depleted states. The heating cycle may further include calculating a recharge period according to a set formula corresponding to the determined contemporary depletion state and directing, prior to the future standby event, the water heater appliance to the steady state based on the recharge period.

    摘要： The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method of modulating utility usage of a water provision system, the water provision system comprising a heat pump configured to transfer thermal energy from the surrounding to a thermal energy storage medium and a control module configured to control operation of the heat pump, the water provision system being configured to provide water heated by the thermal energy storage medium to a user at one or more water outlets, the method being performed by the control module and comprising: determining a water-usage event upon a water outlet being turned on for provision of water at a first temperature, the first temperature being set by the user; determining whether the water-usage event is a short-duration event based on at least one indicator; and deploying one or more utility-reduction strategies upon determining that the water-usage event is a short-duration event.

    摘要： A hot water supply system includes a hot water supply apparatus, a plurality of supply paths, and an estimation unit. The hot water supply apparatus includes a heating apparatus configured to heat water, a tank configured to store the water heated by the heating apparatus, and a water circuit configured to circulate the water in the tank. Each supply path is coupled to a corresponding one of a plurality of hot water supply targets and is configured to supply the water from the tank. The estimation unit is configured to predict a total amount of hot water supply demand, based on time-series data of a first index that indicates an amount of heat of water used in each of the plurality of hot water supply targets.

    摘要： An electric water heater with a computing device used to heat water from a residential or industrial water tank while executing useful computational tasks for a network. It includes a water tank, a heat exchanger, a computing device, a connectivity system to connect the computing device to a network, the network supplying computing tasks to the computing device, such that running the computing tasks results in a heat production, and a temperature control system to control the heat production from the computing device responsive to the water and heat exchanging fluid temperatures. The computational tasks are defined by one or more network user.

    摘要： A combination space and water heating apparatus includes a frame enclosing a water heating assembly and an air heating assembly. The water heating assembly is positioned in a top front portion of the frame and supplies hot water in response to a hot water demand. The water heating assembly includes inlet and outlet water connections through a top portion of the water heating assembly. The air heating assembly is positioned in a rear and bottom portion of the frame and supplies heated air in response to a space heating demand. Maintenance access to the air heating assembly is solely through a front section of the bottom portion of the frame.
