Abstract

A method and apparatus for detecting the flow of a fluid through a heat exchanger is disclosed, comprising monitoring a temperature related to the temperature of the heat exchanger, and detecting a change in the monitored temperature indicative of a flow of the fluid through the heat exchanger. In a further aspect, a combination of a heat exchanger, a heat source or sink, and apparatus for monitoring the temperature of the heat exchanger is disclosed. The heat source or sink communicates with the heat exchanger for circulation of heat exchange medium between the heat exchanger and the source or sink. Preferably, the combination 1 comprises a boiler 2 for heating heat exchange water, a reservoir 3 for storing the heat exchange water and a heat exchanger 4. Domestic water may be supplied to the heat exchanger from an inlet pipe 14 through a water port 16, and heated domestic water delivered through a water outlet pipe 15. Preferably, a thermistor 20 is located on the inlet pipe adjacent the water inlet port of the heat exchanger and a control circuit 24 monitors signals from the thermistor and outputs activating signals to the boiler and a circulating pump 12.
