The method of construction of a wall heating panel and a wall heating panel consists in constructing an aluminium multi-channel collector, preferably with one phase transition channel, connecting it inseparably with vertical aluminium heating elements, arranging the heating elements in the grooves of a dry wall construction board, preferably magnesium, and filling the space between the grooves and the heating elements with elastic compound, and then applying paper—aluminium foil laminate onto the whole surface of the board. A wall heating panel consists of an aluminium collector (1) with stub pipes (2), inside the collector there are horizontal parallel phase transition channels (3) and a water channel (4), the phase transition channel (3) is inseparably connected with the vertical aluminium heating elements (5) which are inserted into the grooves of the dry wall construction board (6), spaces between the grooves and the heating elements are filled with elastic compound (7) and sealed with paper—aluminium foil laminate (8), whereas the top part of the collector (1) adjoins the bottom surface of the board (6).

Thermal energy systems for managing, distribution and recovery of thermal energy. A single-pipe loop circulating a two-phase refrigerant is provided. The single-pipe loop is spread through the entire system and interconnects a plurality of local heat exchange stations, each having different thermal energy loads. A central circulation mechanism (CCM) is also provided for circulating the refrigerant for distribution of thermal energy within the system.

Described herein is a heater for space equipment that includes a heat pipe. The heater also includes a first layer applied to the heat pipe. The first layer may be made from an electrically non-conductive material. The heater additionally includes a resistance heater printed onto the first layer after the first layer is applied to the heat pipe. The heater includes a second layer adjacent the resistance heater. The resistance heater may be positioned between the first layer and the second layer, and the second layer may be made from an electrically non-conductive material.

A geothermal heat delivery system supplies geothermal heat for various residential, surface heating applications, including heating driveways, paths, sidewalks, homes, roofs, swimming pools, and commercial applications, including heating roadways, parkways, highways, airport runways, parking lots and sidewalks. The geothermal heat delivery system includes a series of heat pipes that are used to provide geothermal heat from a borehole to a structure or a surface, which can for example, melt precipitation on a road, driveway or roof, without the use of a ground source heat pump.

The present invention provides a heat pump type hot water supplying device that has solved the inconvenience of an antifreeze operation being not carried out due to the phenomenon of a backflow from a hot water storage tank without increasing the number of components. A control device 70 carries out an antifreeze operation, in which a water pump 23 is operated, if the temperature of water for hot water supply in a hot water supply circuit 20 positioned in a heating unit 50 decreases to a predetermined value or less. The water pump 23 is operated if the temperature of the water for hot water supply in the hot water supply circuit 20 positioned in the heating unit 50 increases while the water pump 23 is in a stopped state.

The objective of the present invention is to provide a body contact-type warmer using a heat pipe, the warmer comprising: a heating part, which includes a body having a heat preserving material-filled space, and heat transfer protrusions formed at both sides of the body; a heat pipe embedded in the heating part and having a heater; caps for holding the heat pipe and blocking both ends of the heating part; a pair of heating plate fixing parts having heat transfer protrusions which come in close contact with the heat transfer protrusions of the heating part so as to transfer heat and, simultaneously, are used as connection means; and a heating plate put on the upper ends of the heating part and the heating plate fixing parts. The present invention can provide the body contact-type warmer having effects of: reducing energy and costs by using only one heat pipe; and being easily manufactured and having a simple structure since the heating part is aligned at the center thereof so as to enable heat of the heat pipe to be quickly and continuously transferred, and the heating plate fixing parts capable of heat transfer to the heating part and, simultaneously, being capable of fixing the heating plate are connected to both sides of the heating part so as to enable the heating plate to be heated, and thus the present invention is very useful.
