Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance thermal conductance at a part of contact between a condensing part of a heat pipe and a container, by a method wherein a condensing part of a heat pipe is covered by a covering container made of a material having a coeffient of thermal expansion lower than that of a material for the condensing part, and the container and a hot water storing tank are sealed. CONSTITUTION:The water heater is comprised of a heat collector which consists of heat-collecting plates and an evaporating part of the heat pipe 1, and the hot water storing tank 3 which is placed in the direction of an upper part of the heat collector and through which the condensing part 1a of the heat pipe 1 is passed. The condensing part 1a is covered by the covering container 2 made of a material (e.g., copper) having a coefficient of thermal expansion lower than that of the material (e.g., Al) for the part 1a, and the container 2 and the tank 3 are sealed. Initially, an appropriate gap is present between the container 2 and the condensing part 1a, so that the part 1a can be easily fitted into or detached from the container 2. On the other hand, when the heat collector receives sunshine, the temperature of the pipe 1 becomes higher than that of the container 2, and the part 1a and the container 2 are snugly connected to each other, whereby the thermal conductance can be enhanced, and heat-collecting efficiency can be enhanced.

A conventional device of this type (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 56-957) has a configuration as shown in FIG. The liquid 11 in the hot water tank 9 is sealed with the liquid 11 between the screw container 10 and the hot water tank 9. Note that 12 in the figure is a heat insulating material that covers the hot water storage tank 9.

Here, since the heat pipe 8 is inserted into the screw container 10, the condensation part 8a formed in the shape of a screw of the heat pipe 8 and the screw container 10 are in local contact, and the thermal conductance becomes small. This will have a negative impact on heat collection performance.
Furthermore, if the heat collecting plate provided in the evaporation part of the heat pipe 8 is large or if multiple heat pipes 8 are connected, it is impossible to screw the heat pipe 8 into the screw container 10 while turning it. It had a serious drawback.

The present invention eliminates these conventional drawbacks, and allows the condensing section of the heat pipe to be easily inserted into the heat exchange container that is firmly sealed to the hot water storage tank without turning it. The object of this invention is to allow a container for protection against corrosion to be easily attached, and to increase the thermal conductivity at the contact portion between the condensing portion of the heat pipe and the container.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention covers the condensing part of the heat pipe with a metal covering container that has a smaller thermal expansion coefficient than the material of the condensing part of the heat pipe and has good thermal conductivity, and the covering container and a sealed hot water tank.

With this configuration, when solar radiation hits the heat collector, the temperature of the heat pipe becomes higher than the temperature of the covering container that is in contact with the liquid in the hot water storage tank, and the coefficient of thermal expansion is also lower than that of the heat pipe condensing part. Because the heat pipe is larger than the covering container, due to the difference in thermal expansion, even if there was initially a suitable gap between the covering container and the heat pipe condensing part and it could be easily inserted or installed, when collecting heat, The condensing part and the covering container are in close contact with each other to increase the thermal conductance and, in turn, improve the heat collection efficiency.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. Figure 1 shows a cross section of the main part of a solar water heater in which the condensing part of the heat pipe is inserted into the hot water storage tank. 1a is formed, the condensing part 1a has fins 2a, and the coefficient of thermal expansion is equal to that of the condensing part 1.
A covering container 2 made of a material smaller than a is arranged in a loose fit, one end of the covering container 2 is closed, and a sealing cylinder 2b is formed at the other end,
The heat pipe 1 inserted into the connecting cylinder 4 provided in the hot water storage tank 3 and the hot water storage tank 4 are connected by a sealing member 5 made of a flexible material that connects both the sealing cylinder 2b and the connecting cylinder 4. It is sealed to prevent the liquid 5 from leaking. 7 is a heat insulating material that covers the hot water storage tank 3.

Next, to explain the operation of the solar water heater with the above configuration, when solar radiation is irradiated onto the heat collecting plate (not shown) and the evaporation part (not shown) of the heat pipe 1 and the heat is absorbed, the absorbed heat is is the condensing section 1a
The temperature of the condensing section 1a increases. Thermal expansion also occurs as the temperature rises, and the condensing portion 1a, which has a larger coefficient of thermal expansion than the covering container 2, eventually fits snugly into the covering container 2, which was initially loosely fitted and easy to attach and detach. This increases the thermal conductance of the contact area and improves heat collection performance.

When the material of the condensing part 1a is aluminum and the material of the coating container 2 is copper, the respective coefficients of linear expansion β are aluminum (β=23.9×10 -6 1/℃) copper (β=16.5×10 -6 1 /°C) {value at 20°C}, and the heat absorbed by the heat collecting plate (not shown) is transferred from the covering container 2 that is in direct contact with the liquid 6 in the hot water storage tank 3 to the condensing section of the heat pipe 7. Coupled with the fact that the temperature in section 1a is higher, the condensation section 1
a and the covering container 2 can be brought into close contact with each other.

In this way, when the covering container 2 and the condensing part 1a come into close contact with each other, not only does the thermal conductance of the contact part become large and the heat collection performance improves, but also when the material of the condensing part of the heat pipe 1 is aluminum, Although it cannot be inserted into the hot water storage tank 3 due to corrosion, the condensing portion 1a can be protected from corrosion by installing the copper coated container 2 as a protective container as in the present invention.
