An instant water heater. The instant water heater includes a housing having a transparent reservoir configured to store liquid water. The reservoir includes an inlet and an outlet in fluid communication with a building's existing water supply lines. A plurality of infrared lights are disposed around a perimeter of the reservoir. A plurality of reflectors disposed around each infrared light are configured to direct the emitted light energy to the reservoir, in order to heat the water therein. A control circuit is operably connected to the infrared lights, and is configured to receive input commands and selectively activate the plurality of infrared lights in order to heat water within the reservoir. Other parameters such as a flow rate and water pressure can be monitored and controlled wirelessly or on an included display screen. The device can be utilized to quickly and efficiently heat water to a desired temperature.

A method of producing an active chemical species, steam or superheated steam includes flowing one or more fluids through a conduit, locating one or more incandescent lights in close proximity to the conduit, and using at least a portion of the heat emitted from the one or more incandescent lights to heat the one or more fluids flowing through the conduit so that the fluid or fluids are disassociated into chemical components, associated into a new compound, or converted into steam.

The present invention relates to an integrated liquid-circulating dual pipe lamp comprising: a lamp unit which has a plurality of coils and filaments thereinside, and which has a position-fixing ring for fixing positions of the filaments; a lamp housing which has the lamp unit thereinside, and which has a circulation hole formed thereon so that liquid circulates outside the lamp unit at a predetermined temperature; watertight members which seal both end parts of the lamp housing, and into/through which both end parts of the lamp unit are inserted and penetrate; a liquid-circulation member which is coupled to the watertight member, which supplies a predetermined amount of liquid towards the circulation hole so as to circulate the same, and which discharges the circulating liquid according to the temperature of the liquid; and a reflection member in which the lamp housing is mounted.

According to aspects of the embodiments, an integrated light and heat arrangement of low profile light-emitting diode (LED) fixture to harness both the light and the heat generated by the LEDs is described. New system architectures and example form factors are provided for the development of new LED fixtures for integrative lighting and heating arrangement to increase their overall luminaire system efficiency. The integrative lighting and heating arrangement of the LED fixture in low profile design can minimize interference of harvesting the heat from LEDs with their light output. The heat which would otherwise be wasted from LEDs is harvested for the purpose of heating up some nearby body, such as a body of air, or a component, or a lens to accomplish some benefits, including, for example, reduction in overall energy uses for space heating, cooling, and lighting and associated cost, and melting snow and de-icing on outdoor LED fixtures for safety and security.

A windshield heating system includes a vehicle that has a windshield. A heat lamp unit is provided and the heat lamp unit is selectively coupled to a support and the heat lamp unit is pointed toward the windshield of the vehicle. The heat lamp unit selectively emits electromagnetic radiation to melt frozen precipitation from the windshield. A remote control is provided and the remote control may be manipulated to turn the heat lamp unit on and off.

An evacuated tube boiler comprised of one or more evacuated tubes and a header, operatively connected to form a common internal volume. The internal volume further containing a first heating fluid. A conduit system conducting a second heating fluid through the header and first heating fluid. One or more artificial light sources in proximity to the evacuated tubes. In operation, the artificial light sources radiate light and/or thermal energy to the evacuated tubes whereby the first heating fluid is efficiently heated. The conduit system conducts the second heating fluid through the header and first heating fluid, whereby heat from the first heating fluid is transferred to the second heating fluid. The conduit system conducts the second heating fluid to the point of use. The apparatus may be used in a hydronic boiler heating system for heating a dwelling.

A vaporizer includes: a liquid-material supply unit that supplies a liquid material for semiconductor manufacturing; a vaporization having therein a vaporization space for vaporizing the supplied liquid material; and a material-gas discharge unit that feeds a material gas obtained through vaporization to a following step. The vaporization unit includes: a vaporizer body; transparent spheres; a heater; and a reflective member.
