20080264601 | Method, Apparatus, System And Heat Exchanger For Increasing the Temperature Of A Substance Which Is Initially In An At Least Partly Solidified State In A Container - One aspect of the present invention relates to a method for increasing the temperature of a substance which is initially in an at least partly solidified state in a container, where at least one heat exchanger is arranged in the container. One object is to obtain that the temperature of a substance may be changed relatively fast. This is obtained by having pumping means for displacing the substance, exchanging heat between a heat exchanger and the substance, displacing substance with the pumping means for increased heat exchange between the heat exchanger and the substance, as well as stirring the substance with the pumping means by displacing the substance inside the container. When the substance is displaced, then not only stagnant substance is in contact with the heat exchanger for heat exchange. The amount of substance in contact with the heat exchanger is thereby greatly increased, and the heat transfer is less dependent on thermal conductivity of the substance. | 10-30-2008 |

20090139688 | WASTE WATER DRAIN HEAT EXCHANGER PREHEATING COLD WATER SUPPLY TO A THERMOSTATIC CONTROL VALVE - A bath waste assembly is that unit that occupies the lowest point in a vessel or tray used for bathing and drains away water to a sewage system, often in concert with an overflow waste drain. The horizontal portion of the waste water assembly terminates in a P-trap that separates the assembly from the rest of the drain and sewer apparatus. The horizontal pipe running from the bath drain hole to the fitting leading to the P-trap can become nearly as hot as the hot water originally entering the vessel, particularly when the bath is being used as a shower vessel. Replacement of this pipe with a copper waste water pipe wrapped with narrower copper pipe through which cold supply water runs, absorbing heat on its way to a thermostatic control valve, allows the amount of hot water balancing this cold water to be decreased automatically since the temperature of the cold water has been increased. Since the heat transfer avoids the hot water supply entirely, various benefits are involved including complete independence from the water heating technology, reduction of heat loss and pressure loss, better heat transfer, and a decreased risk of cross-contamination. | 06-04-2009 |
