Description
- The present invention concerns an instant boiler for heating water, comprising a first closed hydraulic circuit in which a heat carrier fluid circulates, which, by means of a heat exchanger, heats a secondary hydraulic circuit connected to the user apparatus, and in which the water flows. To be more exact, the boiler according to the present invention comprises, apart from a gas burner to heat the heat carrier fluid, an accumulation tank to reduce the waiting times of the hot water to the user apparatus.
- Instant boilers for heating water are known, comprising a closed primary hydraulic circuit, provided with a pipe in which a heat carrier fluid circulates, and with which a gas burner and possibly an accumulation tank are associated, and a secondary hydraulic circuit connected to the user apparatus, in which the water circulates.
- The secondary hydraulic circuit, by means of a heat exchanger, acquires heat from the primary hydraulic circuit, to supply the user apparatus with heated water at a desired temperature.
- Conventional instant boilers have the disadvantage, however, that once the accumulation tank has been emptied, the cold fluid which when the cycle is started is found in the pipe, flows into the heat exchanger. Therefore, at the moment when the hot water is required, firstly water at a high temperature is supplied to the user apparatus, heated by the fluid arriving directly from the accumulation tank, then water at a lower temperature is supplied, cooled by the fluid in the pipe, and finally water at the desired temperature is supplied, which acquires heat from the fluid heated by the gas burner.
- One purpose of the present invention is to achieve an instant boiler for heating water which will allow to deliver to the user apparatus hot water having a desired and substantially constant temperature at least during the first steps of delivery, that is, from the moment the request for hot water is made, to the moment when the heat exchange occurs directly with the fluid heated by the gas burner.
- The Applicant has devised, tested and embodied the present invention to overcome the shortcomings of the state of the art and to obtain these and other purposes and advantages.
- The present invention is set forth and characterized in the main claim, while the dependent claims describe other characteristics of the invention or variants to the main inventive idea.
- In accordance with the above purpose, an instant boiler according to the present invention is able to heat water for sanitary use and comprises a first closed hydraulic circuit, in which a heat carrier fluid circulates, associated by means of heat exchange means with a second hydraulic circuit connected to a user apparatus, and in which the water flows.
- The first hydraulic circuit comprises a pipe and burner means able to heat the heat carrier fluid.
- According to a characteristic feature of the present invention, the first hydraulic circuit also comprises accumulation means connected to the pipe and able to contain and maintain at temperature a determinate quantity of heat carrier fluid, and valve means associated with the pipe, and able to selectively divert the heat carrier fluid towards the exchange means or towards the accumulation means, according to whether the fluid has or has not been subjected to heating by the burner means.
- When hot water is required by the user apparatus, the valve means are disposed so as to direct the heat carrier fluid, which initially is stationary in the pipe and has rather a low temperature, around 15°C, into the accumulation means, so that the heated heat carrier fluid present in the latter, is thrust towards the heat exchange means, following a determinate path. At the moment when the heat carrier fluid is heated by the burner means, the valve means divert the heat carrier fluid arriving from the pipe directly towards the heat exchange means.
- In this way, the cold fluid present initially in the pipes, which is normally the cause of the initial variations in the temperature of the water delivered, is conveyed into the accumulation means, without participating in the heat exchange with the second hydraulic circuit.
- In this way, a substantially constant temperature of the water delivered to the user apparatus is guaranteed, from the moment it is requested to the moment when the heat exchange occurs directly with the fluid heated by the burner means.
- In a preferential form of embodiment of the present invention, the boiler comprises a command and control unit, for example manually settable, able to coordinate the activation of the valve means both according to the temperature of the heat carrier fluid and also according to the manually set values.
- These and other characteristics of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of a preferential form of embodiment, given as a non-restrictive example with reference to the attached drawings wherein:
- fig. 1 is a schematic view of an instant boiler for heating water according to the present invention in a first operating condition;
- fig. 2 is a schematic view of the instant boiler in fig. 1 in a second operating condition;
- fig. 3 is a schematic view of the instant boiler in fig. 1 in a third operating condition;
- fig. 4 shows a graph comparing the theoretical curves of temperature/time of a traditional boiler and the boiler in fig. 1.
- With reference to figs. 1, 2 and 3, an
instant boiler 10 according to the present invention comprises a closedprimary circuit 11, with which asecondary circuit 13 is associated, by means of aheat exchanger 12 of a substantially conventional type; thesecondary circuit 13 is connected to auser apparatus 15. - The
primary circuit 11 comprises apipe 16, in which a desired quantity of heat carrier fluid, such as water, anti-freeze or other, flows cyclically, and to which are connected apump 17, agas burner 19, apreheating valve 20, anaccumulation tank 21 and theheat exchanger 12. - Moreover, the
primary circuit 11 comprises adiversion valve 24 that selectively diverts the flow of heat carrier fluid towards apipe 18 connected to a heating plant of a conventional type, not shown in the drawings. - The
secondary circuit 13, on the contrary, is of the open type and water for sanitary use arriving for example from awater system 23 flows inside it. - To be more exact, the
secondary circuit 13 is partly disposed inside theheat exchanger 12, so that the water for sanitary use acquires, through convection, a temperature near that of the heat carrier fluid that flows in theprimary circuit 11 in correspondence with theheat exchanger 12, and thus delivers to theuser apparatus 15 water with the desired temperature. - The
pump 17 to make the heat carrier fluid flow inside theprimary circuit 11, and thegas burner 19 to heat the heat carrier fluid, can be of any known type and will not be described in detail here. - The
accumulation tank 21 is connected to thetube 16 and comprises acontainer 25, advantageously with stratifications, in which a desired quantity of heat carrier fluid is contained, anelectric resistance 22 disposed inside thecontainer 25 to compensate the normal heat losses of the heat carrier fluid contained, alower pipe 26 and anupper pipe 27, the latter both able to allow the introduction and exit of the heat carrier fluid from thecontainer 25. - The preheating
valve 20 comprises inside a plurality of components selectively driven by means of mechanical or electric actuators, not shown here, to create three different conditions of fluid-dynamic connection between thegas burner 19, theaccumulation tank 21 and theheat exchanger 12, according to the various steps to be performed during the delivery cycle of the water. - To be more exact, the preheating
valve 20 is shown in the figures with a fluid-dynamic symbol, and comprises afirst sector 29 used during the start-up step of the cycle, asecond sector 30 used during the normal delivery of the water, and athird sector 31 used during the steps of reloading theaccumulation tank 21. - The
instant boiler 10 according to the present invention functions as follows. - In the inactive condition, that is, when no delivery of hot water is required by the
user apparatus 15, inside thepipe 16 the heat carrier fluid is stationary and has a relatively low temperature, that is, about 15°C, while inside thecontainer 25 the fluid is normally kept at a temperature that varies from about 40°C to about 90°C, by means of theelectric resistance 22. - When the
user apparatus 15 requires hot water, thepump 17 puts the heat carrier fluid into circulation inside theprimary circuit 11, thegas burner 19 heats afirst segment 16a of thepipe 16 adjacent thereto, and the heat carrier fluid contained in theaccumulation tank 21 exits therefrom through theupper pipe 27. - In this first operative step, as shown in fig. 1, the components of the
preheating valve 20 are activated to connect thegas burner 19, theaccumulation tank 21 and theheat exchanger 12, in order to simulate the connection condition of thefirst sector 29. - In this way, the cold fluid initially present in the
pipe 16, is diverted towards thelower pipe 26 of theaccumulation tank 21, while the hot fluid contained in the latter is sent directly to theheat exchanger 12, in order to heat the water flowing in thesecondary circuit 13. - In a second operative step, in which all the cold fluid arriving initially from the
pipe 16 has been conveyed inside theaccumulation tank 21, the various components of the preheatingvalve 20 are actuated to simulate the connection condition of the second sector 30 (fig. 2). - In this way, the fluid heated by the
gas burner 19 arrives directly to theheat exchanger 12, temporarily excluding theaccumulation tank 21 from theprimary circuit 11. - In this way, the cold fluid initially present inside the
pipe 16, and now contained in theaccumulation tank 21, does not participate in the heat exchange, so as not to affect the temperature of the water delivered to theuser apparatus 15. - Fig. 4 shows schematically, with a line of dashes, a theoretical curve made from the relation between the temperature of the water and its delivery time in an instant boiler of a conventional type. In the curve it can be seen that, after a sudden heating, determined by the heated fluid arriving from the accumulation tank, a flexion of the temperature occurs, due to the heat exchange with the cold fluid initially present in the pipe. Only after a few seconds does the water regain temperature due to the effect of the heat exchange with the heat carrier fluid heated by the gas burner.
- On the contrary a continuous line shows schematically the same type of theoretical curve, but this time referring to the
instant boiler 10 according to the present invention. - As can be seen, after the initial sudden heating of the water, there is a substantially constant temperature of the latter. This is possible because, due to the effect of the preheating
valve 20 that selectively connects thegas burner 19,accumulation tank 21 andheat exchanger 12, by means of the connection conditions shown in thefirst sector 29 or thesecond sector 30, the cold fluid is conveyed into theaccumulation tank 21, without being able to intervene in the heat exchange with the water. - Fig. 3 on the contrary shows a third operating step in which the
accumulation tank 21 is filled when theuser apparatus 15 no longer requires hot water. - To be more exact, the components of the preheating
valve 20 are actuated to connect thegas burner 19, which in this step is off, theaccumulation tank 21, whoseelectric resistance 22 maintains at temperature the fluid contained therein, and theheat exchanger 12, so as to simulate the connection condition of thethird sector 31. - In this case, the heat carrier fluid, still hot after the heating cycle of the water, is put into circulation by the
pump 17 in thepipe 16, and is sent directly to theupper pipe 27 of thecontainer 25, so as to enter inside theaccumulation tank 21. At the same time, the cold fluid present inside thecontainer 25 exits from thelower pipe 26 and is sent directly to theheat exchanger 12 and returned into circulation in thepipe 16. - Once the
accumulation tank 21 is full, thepump 17 is stopped, so that the heat carrier fluid contained therein is maintained at temperature by means of theelectric resistance 22. - This solution allows to introduce inside the accumulation tank 21 a heat carrier fluid already heated by the
gas burner 19 during the delivery of the hot water, restoring to thepipe 16 the cold fluid contained therein. - In this way, at the end of the heating cycle it is possible to re-use the hot fluid present in the
pipe 16, without its heat being dispersed, and use it to fill theaccumulation tank 21. Therefore, with theinstant boiler 10 according to the invention, it is possible to considerably reduce the consumption of gas necessary for heating the heat carrier fluid. - It is clear, however, that modifications and/or additions of parts may be made to the
instant boiler 10 as described heretofore, without departing from the field and scope of the present invention. - For example, it comes within the field of the present invention to provide that one or more sensor devices can be associated with the
pipe 16, which detect the temperature of the water in desired sections of thepipe 16 and, according to the temperatures detected, command thepreheating valve 20 to simulate the conditions of thesectors - It also comes within the field of the present invention to provide that instead of said sensor device a timer can be provided which commands the
preheating valve 20. - According to a variant, a control and command unit can also be provided, even of the type that can be selectively set by the operator, which manages the electronic and fluid-dynamic part of the
instant boiler 10. - It is also clear that, although the present invention has been described with reference to specific examples, a person of skill in the art shall certainly be able to achieve many other equivalent forms of instant boiler for heating water, having the characteristics as set forth in the claims and hence all coming within the field of protection defined thereby.
