AIRCRAFT WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM
An aircraft water supply system supplies water to a water discharge port in an aircraft. A cold water flow path supplies cold water to the water discharge port. A hot water flow path supplies hot water to the water discharge port. A first control valve adjusts the flow rate of cold water flowing through the cold water flow path. A second control valve adjusts the flow rate of hot water flowing through the hot water flow path. A temperature sensor detects the water temperature at any point up to the water discharge port. A flow control unit controls the opening/closing state of the first control valve and the second control valve based on the water temperature detected by the temperature sensor.
Integrated recirculation pump for non-condensing water heater
A hot water circulation system comprises a water heater having a cold-water inlet and a hot water outlet. A water pump circulates water through the water heater to produce hot water. The hot water is circulated to a thermal bypass valve, which is configured to close when hot water contacts a heat activated seal. A bypass circuit is coupled between the hot water outlet and the cold water inlet of the water heater. The bypass circuit prevents hot water from circulating from the hot water outlet to the cold-water inlet when the thermal bypass valve is open and promotes circulating hot water from the hot water outlet to the cold water inlet when the thermal bypass valve is closed. Upon a temperature sensor sensing hot water entering the cold-water inlet, the water heater turns of the water pump.
Methods and Systems for Heating Water with In-Line Magnetic Induction
An apparatus, method, and device for heating water using in-line magnetic induction. The heating system utilizes eddy currents created via one or more magnetic fields acting upon a stationary ferrous core. The device can be housed within an enclosure, which can in turn be connected to any existing water line, and can be connected to basic house voltage. During operation, cold water enters the enclosure, passes through the system, and leaves the system at a desired temperature setpoint greater than the initial inlet water temperature.
Managing hot water delivery
A method, system or computer usable program product for controlling an on-demand hot water heater including providing a plurality of nodes for receiving hot water from an on-demand hot water heater in a hot water delivery system, receiving a demand with a node identifier for hot water at a node, determining a hot water temperature for the node from a centralized database, the database including a set of node identifiers with a corresponding set of preset hot water temperatures, and controlling a temperature of hot water flowing from the water heater based on the determined hot water temperature.
WATER HEATER MONITORING
In one aspect, a first device includes a processor and storage accessible to the processor. The storage bears instructions executable by the processor to receive input from a water heater meter that monitors a water heater and provide an output comprising information pertaining to a time estimate related to the provisioning of heated water based on the input.
METHOD TO HEAT WATER IN AN ELECTRICAL BOILER, CORRESPONDING DEVICE AND ELECTRICAL BOILER
A method and a device to heat water in an electrical boiler are disclosed. The method include the steps of storing user's requests of hot water in association with corresponding times of requests, heating water in advance to a next user's request, wherein the next user's request is estimated on the stored user's requests. The device is the hardware implementing the method.
BOILING WATER HEATER
The invention discloses a boiling water heater, which includes a barrel shape internal tank body, a water inlet pipe, a water outlet pipe and a exhaust pipe, the upper end of the tank body, fixedly and hermetically connect to the first upper cover, the first upper cover is fixedly and hermetically connected to the second upper cover. One cavity is formed between the first and second upper covers, water inlet pipe passes through the second upper cover. An exhaust hole is set on the inner wall of water inlet pipe to connect to the cavity, a separation plate extended to the middle which is above the exhaust hole on water inlet pipe's internal wall. The invention has the characteristics of convenient installation and disassembly, convenient cleaning, and can ensure the quality of water flows out, and the production cost is low, and very safe for use.
Boiler control system
A system and method for controlling a boiler comprising a microcomputer operatively connected to a microcontroller wherein the microcontroller is configured to provide flame safeguard operations and the microcomputer is configured to provide operating control instructions to the microcontroller. The boiler control system may operate either in a stand-alone, cascade master or cascade slave configuration.
Instant-response on-demand water heater
An on-demand hot water dispenser includes a housing, a water heating system received in the housing, and a faucet connected to the water heating system through the housing for dispensing hot water into a container. A drip tray is positioned below the faucet and a screen covers the drip tray to support the container during dispensing of the hot water.
Hybrid heater
Embodiments of the invention provide a pool heater including a housing, a first tankless heater, a second tankless heater, and a controller. The controller is configured to activate only the first tankless heater when a first condition is met, activate only the second tankless heater when a second condition is met, and activate the first and the second tankless heaters simultaneously when a third condition is met.
