Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fluid heating device with a tube through which a fluid flows, concentric around one surrounded by a quartz jacket Spotlight is arranged.
  • Heaters of this type are from the publications US 5 371 830 A, EP 0 570 586 A, US 5 054 108 A, US 5 054 107 A and Patent Abstracts of Japan, Vol. 010, No. 304 (M-526) or JP 61 116246 A known.
  • JP 01 200 143 A is a water heater known with electric heaters, where the water inside a container electrically heated elements is passed.
  • the object of the present invention is a Fluid heater to create that inexpensive is to be produced and with which a fluid is as inert as possible and can be heated up in a controlled manner.
  • the object of the invention is mentioned in one Fluid heater solved in that a Temperature sensor on the one opposite the radiator The outer circumference of the fluid tube is provided.
  • one flowing through a heating wire Heating current switched off when the by the first temperature sensor measured temperature a predetermined temperature value reached.
  • the one from the first temperature sensor The delivered value for the temperature also indicates whether Gas flows through the fluid pipe, because in this case the Heating heat through the fluid medium to the outer circumference of the Fluid pipe is transported.
  • the temperature value determined by the second temperature sensor used to control the heating power.
  • the quartz jacket stores only a small amount of residual heat where by immediately after switching off the fluid heating device the fluid is no longer heated.
  • the quartz jacket is a quartz tube that shaped the spotlight contains an electric heating element.
  • the quartz tube Heating wire Preferably contains at least a portion of the quartz tube Heating wire. If there are several sections of the quartz tube Heating element is included by interconnection of the several heating elements achieves a greater heating output.
  • the radiator is advantageously an infrared radiator and the fluid tube is made of stainless steel, a ceramic tube or one lined with ceramics or a ceramic tube Steel tube. This makes a large part of that Radiators emitted thermal energy on the inner circumference of the Fluid tube reflected back into the fluid tube.
  • Fig. 1 is a first embodiment of an inventive Fluid heating device 1 shown schematically.
  • the fluid heating device 1 has a fluid tube 2 through which a gas (not shown) flows, whereby the direction of flow represented by the arrows in Fig. 1 is.
  • a quartz tube 3 is concentric in the fluid tube 2 arranged, which has a heating wire 4.
  • Of the Heating wire 4 has two lead wires 5, 6 through Passages in the quartz tube 3 and the fluid tube 2 behind are led outside.
  • the heating wire 4 With energy supplies and emits in particular IR heating power that the gas flowing in the direction of the arrow in the flow process warmed up.
  • a first temperature sensor 7 senses the temperature the outside of the quartz jacket 3 to overtemperature to switch off the heating device.
  • a second Temperature sensor 8 senses the temperature of the gas analogously downstream of the fluid heating device 1. The value the temperature measured by the second temperature sensor 8 can be used to control the heating wire 4 via the Lead wires 5, 6 applied electrical power used to keep the temperature of the gas constant hold.
  • the fluid heating device 1 has a fluid tube 2 made of polished stainless steel, in which a gas (not shown), such as N 2 gas, flows. The direction of flow is indicated by the arrows.
  • the gas enters the tube 2 through an inlet 9 arranged transversely to the fluid tube 2 and exits through an outlet 10 likewise offset transversely to the fluid tube 2 and the inlet 9.
  • a quartz jacket is arranged axially symmetrically, which is designed as a quartz tube 3, which extends beyond the inlet 9 and the outlet 10.
  • a heating wire (not shown) is arranged over the schematically indicated length L in a section 11 of the quartz jacket 3, to whose supply wires 5, 6 an electrical voltage is applied in order to heat the heating wire.
  • the lead wires 5, 6 are guided in the quartz tube 3 and are led out of the fluid tube 2 at the quartz tube ends.
  • the points at which the quartz tube 3 emerges from the fluid tube 2 are provided with sealing devices 12, 13 on the inlet side and the outlet side, respectively, which are preferably designed as sealing rings.
  • the first temperature sensor 7 senses the temperature on the outer circumference of the fluid tube 2.
  • a second temperature sensor 8 senses the gas temperature downstream of the heated section 11 of the quartz tube 3 on the outer circumference of a tube that conducts the fluid.
  • the invention was based on two preferred exemplary embodiments described, instead of a gas also a liquid through the heating device according to the invention can be heated.
