A heat exchanger includes a casing configured to direct a working fluid therethrough, and at least one heat exchanger (HE) section in the casing. Each HE section includes a pair of spaced supports. The spaced supports include: an upstream support and a downstream support with at least one of them including a coolant carrying body configured to direct a coolant therethrough. A first cross-support couples to and extends between respective upstream and downstream supports; and at least one second cross-support couples to and extends between the respective upstream and downstream supports. Cross-supports are vertically distanced from adjacent cross-supports. A plurality of tube positioners coupled to each cross-support position a plurality of heat exchange tubes extending across a working fluid path through the casing. The tube positioners and the cooling of the cross-supports allows ferritic material to be used for once-through, duct-fired HRSGs.

The presently claimed invention relates to a heat exchanger and a method of exchanging heat.

A water heater can include a baffle and a slab heat exchanger with at least two rows of heat exchanger tubes, each row comprising a plurality of heat exchanger tubes. At least one of the heat exchanger tubes comprises a tube and a plurality of fins on the exterior of the tube circumscribing the tube, wherein the outer edge of each fin of the plurality of fins is bent at least at the same three areas of each fin such that the bends form at least three flat or concave areas running along the length of the heat exchanger tube.

A multilayered material system includes at least one of a liner sheet and a cellular core, and a multilayered composite joined to the at least one of a liner sheet and a cellular core. The multilayered composite includes hollow microspheres dispersed within a metallic matrix material.

Embodiments include various water heaters. In one example, a water heater includes a burner, an exhaust vent, a corrugated baffle having a first slit having a first length and a second slit having a second length that is less than the first length, and a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger includes a first set of heat exchanger tubes arranged in a first row, and a second set of heat exchanger tubes arranged in a second row, the second set of heat exchanger tubes having a third tube having a first angled surface and a second angled surface, where the first angled surface and the second angled surface together form a fin. The third tube can be arranged such that the fin is disposed at least partially between the first curved outer surface and the second curved outer surface.

A heat shielded assembly includes a fuel structure of a combustor of a gas turbine engine and a woven heat shield at least partially conformally surrounding the fuel structure and spaced from an exterior of the fuel structure by a distance where it surrounds the fuel structure. The fuel structure is configured to deliver fuel to the combustor. The woven heat shield comprises a first set of strands, a second set of strands interwoven with the first set of strands, and a weave pattern comprising the first set of strands and the second set of strands. Each strand of the first set of strands extends in a first direction, each strand of the second set of strands extends in a second direction transverse to the first direction, and the first set of strands and the second set of strands are not attached where they intersect in the weave pattern.

The disclosed technology relates to a solar water heating system including a tank configured to store heat transfer fluid, a solar collector in fluid communication with the tank, and a pump system in fluid communication with the tank and the solar collector. The pump system can include a first pump, a second pump, and a valve assembly. The valve assembly can direct the heat transfer fluid from an outlet of the first pump to the solar collector when the first pump is operating and can direct the heat transfer fluid from an outlet of the second pump to the solar collector when the second pump is operating. The first pump and the second pump can transfer the heat transfer fluid from the solar collector back to the tank when the first pump and the second pump are not operating.

A multilayered material system includes at least one of a liner sheet and a cellular core, and a multilayered composite joined to the at least one of a liner sheet and a cellular core. The multilayered composite includes hollow microspheres dispersed within a metallic matrix material.

In at least some implementations, a plate for a heat exchanger defines at least in part a flow channel for a working fluid of the heat exchanger, the plate defines an aperture adjacent the flow channel, and the aperture has a sensor assembly disposed therein. The sensor assembly includes a body mounted to the aperture and at least in one of a temperature sensor and a pressure sensor secured within the body, and the body forming in part the flow channel for the working fluid.

A cover for a heat source according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first portion covering at least a portion of the heat source, and a second portion including a first latch and a second latch. Each of the first and second latches are configured to engage a fluid conduit. An assembly is also disclosed.
