The coolant flow path includes an electric component, and the distribution valve is configured to control a distribution of the first coolant flowing towards the electric component and the re-entry point.

A water heater system includes a water heater having a first water outlet and a second water outlet. The water heater system further includes a flow detection device coupled to the first water outlet to detect a water flow through the first water outlet. The water heater system also includes a flow control valve fluidly coupled to the second water outlet. The flow control valve is configured to control a flow of water through the second water outlet based on whether the water flow through the first water outlet is detected by the flow detection device.

The present disclosure provides a cap and a water-heating device having the same. The cap for covering a top side of a case of the water-heating device includes a cover having a receiving space that is open at the bottom, the cover including an exhaust hole formed therein for releasing exhaust gas in the case to the outside, and an exhaust duct that is received in the receiving space and coupled to the cover and that forms an exhaust channel that connects an exhaust tube included in the case and the exhaust hole and releases the exhaust gas, in which the exhaust duct is formed of a material different from a material of the cover, and the material of the exhaust duct has higher heat resistance than the material of the cover.

A heating system is connected to a source of supply fluid to be heated, and has an internal combustion engine provided with engine coolant and gases that flow to and from the engine, and are heated thereby. A heat generator is provided in fluid communication with a supply of heat transfer fluid for circulating the heat transfer fluid in the heat generator causing fluid friction to create heat directly in the heat transfer fluid, and provide heated transfer fluid that is not in fluid communication with the engine. A fluid heat exchanger arrangement is provided in fluid communication with the supply fluid, the engine coolant, the gases of the engine and the heated transfer fluid for transferring heat from the heated engine coolant, the heated engine gases, and the heated transfer fluid to heat the supply fluid.

The present disclosure discloses an ignition temperature control apparatus of a gas water heater, comprising: a heat exchanger made of stainless steel; a combustion device which supplies high-temperature flue gas to the heat exchanger; a water passage communicated with the heat exchanger; a first temperature detection device provided on the heat exchanger or on the water passage; a controller, wherein if a temperature detected by the first temperature detection device is lower than or equal to a first preset temperature or a rate of decline of a temperature detected by the first temperature detection device is higher than or equal to a first preset value the controller controls the combustion device to operate in such a state that a requirement for thermal bearing capacity of the heat exchanger made of stainless steel is satisfied. The heat exchanger of the ignition temperature control apparatus of the gas water heater of the present disclosure, which is made of stainless steel, has good thermal inertia and excellent thermal insulation properties, and thus the combustion device is started for heating when the ignition temperature control apparatus of the gas water heater is in a stop state, such that it is possible to ensure that the heat exchanger will not fail while an anti-freezing effect can be achieved.

A portable thermoshapable fabric composite heating device kit mainly comprises a portable heating device and a thermoshapable fabric composite; wherein the portable heating device includes a first box body and a second box body disposed above or inside the first box body. A heating space formed between the bottoms of the two box body bodies is used to accommodate a heating pack. The thermoshapable fabric composite can be accommodated within a receiving space of the second box body. After water is added into the first box body to flood the heating pack, and a lid is placed to cover the top, the heat-generating material in the heating pack contacts the water to generate water vapor during an exothermic reaction. The water vapor enters the receiving space, in which the thermoshapable fabric composite is stored, through the multiple pores at the bottom of the second box body. The generated thermal energy will heat the thermoshapable fabric composite without the need for open flame or electricity. That is, the thermoshapable fabric composite can be heated and softened, so that the thermoshapable fabric composite can be used in the field without reliance on external elements, such as conventional heating or electricity, in order to achieve the purpose of providing first aid such as bandaging and fixation, and to prevent secondary injuries.

The present invention relates generally to a portable device for heating the ends of plastic tubing to enlarge the diameter and increase the flexibility of the tubing to more easily connect with various fittings.

The invention can be used to clean the pipes of aircraft.

Heating body (I) for a device (16) for electrically heating liquid, said heating body (I) comprising at least one first helical heating element (4) defined by a diameter (di), a second helical heating element (5) defined by a diameter (d2), and a base (2) carrying the first and the second heating element (4, 5), characterized in that the first diameter (di) is greater than the second diameter (d2), and in that the first heating element is disposed around the second element. The heating body (I) can be configured so as to comprise three heating elements, or more, arranged such that the size in terms of length is limited, and could include a core, disposed so as to be surrounded by all of the different heating elements, reducing the volume of liquid inside the chamber (15) in which the heating body (I) is housed.

A modulating burner apparatus includes a burner and a blower placed upstream of the burner. A venturi is placed upstream of the blower. A damper valve is placed upstream of the venturi. The damper valve has an open position and a restricted position. A smaller gas valve and a larger gas valve are communicated with the venturi. A controller is operably associated with the system to select a position of the damper valve and to select the appropriate one of the gas valves so as to provide a low output operation mode and a high output operation mode, which in combination provide an overall turndown ratio of at least 25:1.
