Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch einen elektrischen Heizkörper mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 sowie durch einen Durchlauferhitzer mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 12.This object is achieved by an electric heater with the features of
Vorteilhafte Aus- und Weiterbildungen, welche einzeln oder in Kombination miteinander ersetzbar sind, sind Gegenstand der jeweils abhängigen Ansprüche.Advantageous embodiments and further developments, which are individually or in combination replaceable with each other, are the subject of the respective dependent claims.
Ein erfindungsgemäßer elektrischer Heizkörper hat ein erstes Rohr zur Aufnahme eines Heizelementes, das gegenüber der Rohrwandung des ersten Rohres elektrisch isoliert ist, und ein von einem zu erwärmenden Fluid zu durchströmendes zweites Rohr. Erfindungsgemäß ist das zweite Rohr ein Außenrohr und das erste Rohr ein im Innenraum des Außenrohrs angeordnetes Innenrohr.An electric heater according to the invention has a first tube for receiving a heating element, which is electrically insulated from the tube wall of the first tube, and a second tube to be flowed through by a fluid to be heated. According to the invention, the second tube is an outer tube and the first tube is an inner tube arranged in the interior of the outer tube.
Somit umströmt erfindungsgemäß das durch das Außenrohr fließende Fluid, beispielsweise Wasser, das die Heizwendel aufweisende Innenrohr vollumfänglich, so dass die Wärmeübertragungsfläche im Prinzip einer Mantelfläche des Innenrohrs entspricht und das Fluid schnell erwärmt wird. Hierdurch wird im Vergleich zu bekannten Rohrheizkörpern eine wesentlich bessere Wärmeübertragung erreicht, so dass die eingesetzte elektrische Energie zu einem größeren Anteil zum Erwärmen des Fluids zur Verfügung steht und der erfindungsgemäße Heizkörper somit eine verbesserte Effizienz aufweist. Gleichzeitig wird der Energieverlust reduziert, so dass der erfindungsgemäße Heizkörper einen wesentlich verbesserten Wirkungsgrad gegenüber bekannten Rohrheizkörpern aufweist. Die Gefahr einer Verkalkung ist über die vergrößerte Wärmeübertragungsfläche des Heizkörpers stark reduziert. Darüber hinaus ist der Heizkörper durch die innenliegende Anordnung des Innenrohrs bzw. der Heizwendel kompakt ausführbar.Thus, according to the invention, the fluid flowing through the outer tube, for example water, completely flows around the inner tube having the heating coil so that the heat transfer surface corresponds in principle to a lateral surface of the inner tube and the fluid is heated rapidly. As a result, a much better heat transfer is achieved in comparison to known tubular heaters, so that the used electrical energy is available to a greater extent for heating the fluid and the radiator according to the invention thus has an improved efficiency. At the same time the energy loss is reduced, so that the radiator according to the invention has a significantly improved efficiency over known tubular heaters. The risk of calcification is greatly reduced by the increased heat transfer surface of the radiator. In addition, the radiator is made compact by the internal arrangement of the inner tube or the heating coil.
Erfindungsgemäß stützt sich das Innenrohr über Rippen mit einer hohen Wärmeleitfähigkeit, insbesondere über metallische Rippen, an der Innenwandung des zweiten Rohrs bzw. Außenrohrs ab. Hierdurch wird zum einen eine stabile Positionierung des Innenrohrs in dem Außenrohr erreicht und zum anderen werden Wärmeleitbrücken zwischen dem Innenrohr und dem Außenrohr geschaffen, wodurch nicht nur die Wandung bzw. Mantelfläche des Innenrohrs als Wärmeübertragungsfläche dient, sondern ebenfalls die Rippenflächen, die die Wärme somit radial in das Außenrohr einleiten, wodurch die Erwärmung des Fluids weiter beschleunigt wird.According to the invention, the inner tube is supported via ribs with a high thermal conductivity, in particular via metallic ribs, on the inner wall of the second tube or outer tube. On the one hand, a stable positioning of the inner tube in the outer tube is achieved and on the other heat-conducting bridges between the inner tube and the outer tube created whereby not only the wall or lateral surface of the inner tube serves as a heat transfer surface, but also the rib surfaces, which thus the heat radially into the outer tube, whereby the heating of the fluid is further accelerated.
Bei einem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Rippen als Zwischenwände ausgebildet, die den Innenraum in eine Vielzahl von Kanälen unterteilen. Hierdurch wird die Wärmeübertragungsfläche nicht nur in radialer Richtung, sondern auch in axialer Richtung vergrößert, wodurch eine noch schnellere Erwärmung des Fluids erfolgt. Die Zwischenwände können jedoch auch zusätzlich zu den Rippen installiert sein. Ebenfalls können die Rippen und/oder die Zwischenwände als Stege, radiale Vorsprünge des Innenrohrs und drgl. ausgebildet sein.In a preferred embodiment, the ribs are formed as partitions that divide the interior into a plurality of channels. As a result, the heat transfer surface is increased not only in the radial direction, but also in the axial direction, whereby an even faster heating of the fluid takes place. However, the partitions may also be installed in addition to the ribs. Likewise, the ribs and / or the intermediate walls may be formed as webs, radial projections of the inner tube and the like.
Um zu erreichen, dass die Rippen bzw. Zwischenwände über ihre gesamte radiale Erstreckung ausreichend erwärmt werden, sieht ein Ausführungsbeispiel vor, die Zwischenwände in radialer Richtung keilartig auslaufen zu lassen.In order to achieve that the ribs or intermediate walls are sufficiently heated over their entire radial extent, an embodiment provides for the intermediate walls to be wedge-shaped in the radial direction.
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Heizwendel mit dem Magnesiumpulver in einem Metallrohr aufgenommen, das in das Innenrohr eingesetzt und mit diesem zur Herstellung einer hohen Wärmeleitfähigkeit bspw. verlötet ist. Diese Variante ist besonders einfach herstellbar, da das Metallrohr gewalzt und somit das aufgenommene Magnesiumoxidpulver hoch verdichtet werden kann.According to the invention, the heating coil with the magnesium powder is accommodated in a metal tube, which is inserted into the inner tube and, for example, soldered to it to produce a high thermal conductivity. This variant is very simple can be produced because the metal tube rolled and thus the recorded magnesium oxide powder can be highly compressed.
Bevorzugterweise besteht das Außenrohr aus einem Material mit einer hohen Wärmeleitfähigkeit, so dass über die Rippen bzw. die Zwischenwände die Wärme auch in die Wandung des Außenrohrs eingeleitet wird, wodurch die Wärmeübertragungsfläche weiter vergrößert wird. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel wird über sämtliche Seitenflächen der Kanäle Wärme in das Fluid abgegeben, so dass dieses quasi von allen Seiten und dabei nahezu gleichmäßig über seinen Querschnitt erwärmt wird und noch schneller und insbesondere energieeffizient erwärmt wird.Preferably, the outer tube is made of a material having a high thermal conductivity, so that the heat is also introduced into the wall of the outer tube via the ribs or the partition walls, whereby the heat transfer surface is further increased. In this embodiment, heat is released into the fluid over all side surfaces of the channels, so that it is heated almost from all sides and thereby almost uniformly over its cross section and is heated even faster and in particular energy efficient.
Um zu verhindern, dass das Außenrohr seine Wärme radial nach außen abstrahlt sieht ein Ausführungsbeispiel eine thermische Isolierung zur Ummantelung des Außenrohrs vor.In order to prevent the outer tube radiating its heat radially outward, an embodiment provides a thermal insulation to the sheathing of the outer tube.
Die Wärmeübertragung zwischen dem Innenrohr, den Zwischenwänden und dem Außenrohr lässt sich verbessern, wenn der Heizkörper als ein integrales Bauteil mit einer hohen Wärmeleitfähigkeit wie ein Metallprofil ausgebildet ist. Das Bauteil kann beispielsweise durch ein generatives Herstellungsverfahren hergestellt werden oder besonders einfach, schnell und kostengünstig durch ein Strangpressverfahren. Das Innenrohr, das Außenrohr und die Rippen können jedoch auch als nachträglich miteinander zu verbindende Einzelbauteile ausgebildet sein. Ebenso können die Rippen bzw. zumindest einige der Rippen mit dem Außenrohr oder dem Innenrohr einstückig ausgebildet sein.The heat transfer between the inner tube, the intermediate walls and the outer tube can be improved if the radiator is formed as an integral component with a high thermal conductivity such as a metal profile. The component can be produced for example by a generative manufacturing process or particularly simple, fast and inexpensive by an extrusion process. However, the inner tube, the outer tube and the ribs can also be designed as subsequently to be interconnected individual components. Likewise, the ribs or at least some of the ribs may be integrally formed with the outer tube or the inner tube.
Bei einem Ausführungsbeispiel besteht das Außenrohr aus einem Material mit schlechter Wärmeleitfähigkeit wie z.B. Kunststoff bzw. mit einer Wärmeleitfähigkeit, die geringer ist als die Wärmeleitfähigkeit des Innenrohrs und/oder der Rippen bzw. Zwischenwände. Hierdurch ist der Wärmeverlust über das Außenrohr auch ohne Isolation sehr gering. Ebenso wird die Fertigung vereinfacht.In one embodiment, the outer tube is made of a material with poor thermal conductivity, such as, e.g. Plastic or with a thermal conductivity which is less than the thermal conductivity of the inner tube and / or the ribs or partitions. As a result, the heat loss through the outer tube without insulation is very low. Likewise, the production is simplified.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel sieht Endkappen zum stirnseitigen bzw. axialen Verschließen der Kanäle vor, die jeweils einen Anschlussstutzen als Flüssigkeitszulauf bzw. Flüssigkeitsablauf, eine radial innenliegende Innenwandung zur stirnseitigen Abstützung auf dem Innenrohr und eine radial außenliegende Außenwandung zur stirnseitigen Abstützung auf dem Außenrohr aufweisen. Die Endkappen, die bevorzugterweise kunststoffbasierte Spritzgussteile sind, ermöglichen eine verlässliche Abdichtung der Kanäle und insbesondere eine räumliche und elektrisch isolierende Trennung von notwendigen Fluid- und elektrischen Stromanschlüssen.An embodiment provides end caps for the frontal or axial closing of the channels, each having a connecting piece as a liquid inlet or liquid outlet, a radially inner inner wall to the frontal support have on the inner tube and a radially outer outer wall to the frontal support on the outer tube. The end caps, which are preferably plastic-based injection-molded parts, allow a reliable sealing of the channels and in particular a spatial and electrically insulating separation of necessary fluid and electrical power connections.
Bei einer Variante bilden die Innenwandung und die Außenwandung einen Ringraum, in den der jeweilige Anschlussstutzen mündet bzw. von dem sich dieser erstreckt, und der eine gleichmäßige und strömungstechnisch günstige Verteilung des einströmenden Fluids in sämtliche Kanäle bzw. eine entsprechend gleichmäßige Entnahme ermöglicht.In a variant, the inner wall and the outer wall form an annular space into which the respective connecting piece opens or from which it extends, and which allows a uniform and fluidically favorable distribution of the inflowing fluid into all channels or a correspondingly uniform removal.
Bei einer alternativen Variante sind die Endkappen so gestaltet, dass die einzelnen Kanäle mäanderartig miteinander verbunden sind und somit einen einzelnen vielfach umgelenkten Strömungskanal definieren. Dies lässt sich zum Beispiel dadurch realisieren, dass in den Endkappen zwischen der Außenwandung und der Innenwandung jeweils eine Vielzahl von Umlenkbereichen ausgebildet ist, die jeweils eine Fluidverbindung zwischen zwei benachbarten parallelen Kanälen herstellen. Hierdurch wird das Wasser länger entlang der aufgewärmten Kanalflächen geführt und somit kann bei gleicher Heizleistung über einen im Vergleich zur vorhergehenden Variante längeren Zeitraum mehr Wärme auf das Wasser übertragen werden.In an alternative variant, the end caps are designed so that the individual channels are connected in a meandering manner and thus define a single multiple deflected flow channel. This can be achieved, for example, by forming a plurality of deflection regions in the end caps between the outer wall and the inner wall, each of which produces a fluid connection between two adjacent parallel channels. As a result, the water is guided longer along the heated channel surfaces and thus more heat can be transferred to the water at the same heat output over a longer compared to the previous variant period.
Die Innenwandung kann eine achsnahe Öffnung zur Aufnahme eines elektrischen Steckverbinders für die Heizwendel haben.The inner wall may have an axially close opening for receiving an electrical connector for the heating coil.
Ein bevorzugter Durchlauferhitzer ist mit einem erfindungsgemäßen elektrischen Heizkörper versehen und zeichnet sich insbesondere durch einen hohen Wirkungsgrad, eine hohe Sicherheit, eine geringe Verkalkung, eine kompakte Bauweise und eine kostengünstige Herstellung aus.A preferred instantaneous water heater is provided with an electric heater according to the invention and is characterized in particular by high efficiency, high safety, low calcification, a compact design and cost-effective production.
Die vorliegende Erfindung eignet sich insbesondere zur Bereitstellung eines kompakten Heizkörpers für ein elektrisches Hausgerät, insbesondere ein Durchlauferhitzer zur Wassererwärmung, der bei einer isolierten Heizwendel einen hohen Wirkungsgrad aufweist.The present invention is particularly suitable for providing a compact heater for an electrical domestic appliance, in particular a water heater for heating water, which has a high efficiency in an insulated heating coil.

Die Rippen bzw. Zwischenwände 6a, 6b, 6c,... sind jeweils in radialer Richtung nach außen verjüngt und weisen einen keilartigen Querschnitt auf. In dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel sind acht gleichausgebildete Zwischenwände 6a, 6b, 6c,... vorgesehen.The ribs or
Die Kanäle 12a, 12b, 12c, ... dienen zur Aufnahme des zu erwärmenden Wassers. Sie und somit das Außenrohr 2 werden in Längsrichtung von dem Wasser durchströmt und haben jeweils einen etwa trapezförmigen, gleichgroßen Querschnitt. Entsprechend der Anzahl der Zwischenwände 6a, 6b, 6c,... sind acht Kanäle 12a, 12b, 12c, ... ausgebildet. Die Energie, die pro Flächeneinheit an das Wasser übertragen wird, kann durch eine Erhöhung der Zahl der Zwischenwände 6a, 6b, 6c,... optimiert werden, wodurch ein Verkalken der wasserführenden Kanäle 12a, 12b, 12c, ... reduziert wird.The

Sobald die Heizwendel 14 bestromt wird, erwärmt sich diese. Die Heizwendel 14 gibt über das Magnesiumoxidpulver Wärme an die Rohrwandung 18 des Innenrohrs 4 ab. Von der Innenrohrwandung 18 wird die Wärme über die sich erwärmenden Zwischenwände 6a, 6b, 6c,... in die Wandung 22 des Außenrohrs 4 eingeleitet. Somit sind sämtliche, die Kanäle 12a, 12b, 12c,... bildenden Seitenflächen des Metallprofils 2 aufgeheizt und das durchströmende Wasser wird quasi vollumfänglich aus Axial-, Radial- und Umfangsrichtung erwärmt wird und eine entsprechend schnelle und effiziente Erwärmung des Wassers erfolgt.As soon as the

Die Endkappe 24 umgreift mit dem verjüngten Außenwandungsabschnitt 32 einen endseitigen Wandungsabschnitt 34 des Außenrohres 2 und stützt sich mit seiner Außenwandung 26 über eine nicht gezeigte Dichtung stirnseitig auf dem Außenrohr 2 sowie mit seiner Innenwandung 28 über eine nicht gezeigte Dichtung stirnseitig auf dem Innenrohr 4 ab. Hierdurch wird zwischen der Außenwandung 26 und der Innenwandung 28 ein Ringraum 36 gebildet, der sich radial über sämtliche Kanäle 12a, 12b, 12c, ... erstreckt und in den der Anschlussstutzen 30 mündet bzw. von dem sich der Anschlussstutzen 30 erstreckt.The
Die Innenwandung 28 begrenzt darüber hinaus eine achsnahe Öffnung 38, in der ein elektrischer Steckverbinder 40 eingesetzt ist, der das Innenrohr 4 stirnseitig verschließt und an den die Heizwendel 14 endseitig elektrisch angeschlossen ist.The
