In the heat exchanger 3 of present embodiment, multiple first heat-transfer pipes 1 are equipped in shell 30.These first heat-transfer pipes 1 Due to along left and right sidewall 303,304, being arranged in above-below direction (herein for 3 sections) with multistage in (short transverse), therefore from The heat for the high temperature combustion exhaust that the gas burner 50 of top is directed in shell 30 is had by multiple first heat-transfer pipes 1 Effect absorbs.Thus, it is suppressed that the abnormal overheat of left and right sidewall 303,304.
Also, although the first heat-transfer pipe 1 is arranged with three sections in the up-down direction, the heat-transfer pipe 13 of lowermost with It is more arranged to the inside mode outstanding of shell 30 compared to epimere side heat-transfer pipe 11,12.
Therefore, lowermost heat-transfer pipe 13 can not only effectively be heated by the burning waste gas flowed in shell 30, Burning waste gas can be made to be flowed towards the inside of shell 30.Therefore, even if the lower half of the left and right sidewall 303,304 along heat exchanger 3 The first heat-transfer pipe 1 is not arranged for part, can prevent the abnormal overheat of left and right sidewall 303,304 conscientiously yet.Also, flow through each top The water conservancy burning waste gas of fluid flowing path 401,402,403 is heated by effectively heat exchange.
The water heater 4 of present embodiment is in the case where carrying out supply hot water operation, out of feed pipe 41 heat exchanger 3 The water of supply flows into the second heat-transfer pipe 2 from the feed water inlet 20 of the inflow head 21 of lower end in front of the left side for being arranged in shell 30.
Then, the water for flowing through the second heat-transfer pipe 2, the downstream side open end 2b from the lower end in front of the right side of shell 30, It is fed into the inner space of dispensing head 22.Then, water flows into and adds along right side wall 304 from upstream side open end 11a, 12a, 13a With the first heat-transfer pipe 1 of arranging.
Also, the water for flowing through each upper flow flow path 401,402,403, from the left end of the front side wall 301 in shell 30 Each downstream side open end 11b, 12b, 13b of upper area opening, flow out to the left upper part from the front side wall 301 of shell 30 The inner space for collecting first 24 that region is arranged to middle section.Flow out to collect first 24 water, via setting collecting first 24 On hot-water outlet 25, be sent to hot-water outlet pipe 42.
On the other hand, the water heater 4 of present embodiment is in the case where carrying out draining, the feed water inlet 20 of water from below It is discharged.Then, with the draining from feed water inlet 20, remain in the water in the first and second heat-transfer pipes 1,2, with the second heat-transfer pipe 2 upstream side open end 2a is target adverse current in the first and second heat-transfer pipes 1,2.
Also, with above-mentioned draining, fills dispensing head 22 and the water for the inner space for collecting first 24 is reduced, in inner space The water surface continuously decrease.When the water surface, which is fallen below, collects first 24 hot-water outlet 25, air enters from hot-water outlet 25 to converge In market-head 24, the volume fractiion of discharged water is gradually replaced into air.
As shown in figure 3, in multiple first heat-transfer pipes 1, the downstream side open end 11b of the heat-transfer pipe 11 of uppermost is first to remittance Air layer opening in market-head 24.Then, as shown in arrow 1, with dampening gradually from upstream side open end 11a (referring to Fig. 2) quilt Discharge, air gradually flow into the heat-transfer pipe 11 of uppermost.So, since the water in the heat-transfer pipe of uppermost 11 is preferential It is discharged, so shipwreck is to remain in the heat-transfer pipe 1 of uppermost.
Then, as the water surface in dispensing head 22 further decreases, the water in the heat-transfer pipe 12 in stage casing is also gradually from upstream Side opening end 12a is discharged (referring to Fig. 2).Then, as shown in arrow 2, air is flowed into stage casing from downstream side open end 12b In heat-transfer pipe 12.
Finally, water is discharged from the upstream side open end 13a of the heat-transfer pipe 13 of lowermost (referring to Fig. 2).Although heat-transfer pipe 13 are connected to the inner space for collecting first 24, but upstream side open end 13a is collecting the lower area opening in first 24.Cause This, to be replaced into air, water is easy to remain in heat-transfer pipe 13 whole shipwrecks in the heat-transfer pipe 13 of lowermost.Moreover, It compares with uppermost with the heat-transfer pipe 11,12 in stage casing, in the heat-transfer pipe 13 of lowermost, due to passing through water drain so far Head buckling is low, so water is difficult to be discharged because being applied to the surface tension of upstream side open end 13a.
But the flow path cross sectional area of the upstream side open end 13a due to the heat-transfer pipe of lowermost 13, it is set as comparing uppermost With the flow path cross sectional area bigger of upstream side open end 11a, 12a of the heat-transfer pipe 11,12 in stage casing, therefore the heat-transfer pipe 13 of lowermost The amount of interior water is more compared with uppermost and the amount of the water of the heat-transfer pipe 11,12 in stage casing.
Therefore, when drain operation, the head pressure energy in heat-transfer pipe 13, which is increased to overcome, is applied to upstream side open end 13a's The degree of surface tension.As a result, as shown in arrow 3, air is flowed into heat-transfer pipe 13, the residual in the heat-transfer pipe 13 of lowermost Water can be successfully discharged.
Also, since the second heat-transfer pipe 2 is made of the excellent elliptical straight tube of section lengthwise of drainage performance, the Water in two heat-transfer pipes 2 also can be successfully discharged.
