Definitions

  • the invention concerns an electrical resistance heating element for a heating device for heating a gaseous medium, with at least one heating resistor that extends essentially in the longitudinal direction of the electrical resistance heating element, with the medium flowing past the heating resistor and being heated in the process.
  • the resistance heating element has at least one flow canal that extends along the heating resistor and through which the gaseous medium is able to flow from a canal inlet side to a canal outlet side of the resistance heating element, with the heating resistor consisting of an electrically conductive ceramic material for conducting the current.
  • the invention also relates to a heating device for a flowing gaseous medium that is equipped with an electrical resistance heating element of this type.
  • heating devices specifically means heating apparatus, modules, or systems where the electrical resistance heating element is located in a heating tube.
  • Air or gas for example, are blown into one end of the tube, and the heated flow of air or gas exits from the other end.
  • the air flow may be generated by a blower provided on the heating device, or may be supplied to the heating device by an external air flow generator, or in case of a gas flow, it may be supplied by a preferably pressurized gas reservoir.
  • Such heating devices are commonly known and are used extensively in industry and trade.
  • a cold flow of the gaseous medium is guided towards the resistance heating element and is then guided through and/or along the heating element exposed to the flow, with the cold medium being heated increasingly on its way from the inlet side to the outlet side of the heating resistor due to its contact with the hot heating resistor.
  • the flowing gaseous medium passes the heating element in one or several flow canals that enclose at least one heating resistor.
  • such a heating device in the form of a hot air device where the resistance heating element is located in a heating tube.
  • various nozzles can be attached to the side of the heating tube that is associated with the air outlet side of the heating element.
  • the heating element comprises a carrier made of a ceramic material of high thermal strength that is held, via a central pin, on a connection head located on a side facing the blower.
  • This connection head also serves for the electrical connection of the heating resistor that is formed by heating wires extending in a spiral configuration in a central air canal.
  • a thin ceramic cover plate, also held by the central pin, is located at the air outlet side of the heating element.
  • the connection head as well as the cover plate have passages for the flow of air, enabling it to pass unimpeded through the air canal with the heating resistor.
  • the heating wire will usually burn through, thereby rendering the heating element unusable.
  • An insufficient flow of air may be caused, for example, by a failure of the blower or a restriction of the air inlet or air outlet cross-section of the hot air device.
  • special protective electrical measures need to be taken to protect the heating wire from undesirable overheating.
  • commercial hot air devices are commonly equipped with a thermal sensor or switch that reduces or interrupts the supply of power to the heating resistor when there is a danger of overheating.
  • DE 100 12 675 A1 discloses an electrical flow-though resistance heating element made of PCT ceramics that, with a small cross-section and low weight rates of flow, is especially well suited for heating liquids flowing through it.
  • the heating element In the flow direction, the heating element has an oblong sectional body that, in the longitudinal direction, has an essentially constant cross-sectional area and layers of electrodes by which the heating current is conducted through the walls of the sectional body essentially perpendicular to the flow direction of the flowing liquid. Throughout, the walls have an essentially even thickness, corresponding to the current path, and heating ribs equipped with electrode layers that intrude into the flow canal.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 6,442,341 B1 also discloses a flow-though heater for liquids.
  • the flow-through heater disclosed there has a resistance heating element embedded in a metallic housing.
  • a flow canal for the liquid runs parallel, at a distance, to the one heating element.
  • the resistance heating element itself has no integrated flow canals and is in direct contact with the housing with its entire surface. The heat from the heating element is transferred indirectly to the flowing liquid along a section of the housing in which the tube-shaped flow canal is located, with the housing being made of a material of good thermal conductivity.
  • EP 0 899 985 A1 relates to a flow-though heater for heating a liquid in a closed circulation system of a motor vehicle.
  • the flow-through heater comprises at least one heating body with at least one canal through which the liquid to be heated flows, and with at least one PCT heating element for heating the heating body positioned in close vicinity.
  • it is essentially similar to the flow-through heater disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,442,341 B1. It differs from this by having several flow canals and several heating elements.
  • the invention addresses the problem of proposing an improved electrical resistance heating element for a heating device for a flowing gaseous medium, wherein the danger of overheating is reduced even without special protective measures.
  • the heating resistor of the electrical resistance heating element is rod-shaped, with the heating resistor being held by carrier plates that are located at the canal inlet side and the canal outlet side of the resistance heating element, and in which the flow canal continues. At its ends, the heating resistor positively engages the carrier plates.
  • rod-shaped heating resistor means a solid heating resistor whose length is distinctly greater than its width. Its cross-sectional shape can be selected randomly, and may also vary over its length. In the longitudinal direction, the heating resistor may also have two or more parallel sections that are connected to each other to form a current path.
  • the heating resistor includes an electrically conductive ceramic material for conducting the current.
  • the conductive ceramic material may itself serve as the ceramic heating resistor, or may be provided as the jacket of a ceramic rod consisting of electrically non-conductive ceramic material.
  • Such a heating resistor has high mechanical as well as electrical wear and thermal strengths, thereby making a long service life possible.
  • the ceramic materials used in this device also have excellent properties regarding thermal and electrical conductivity.
  • the flow of current through the heating resistor can be influenced by the conductivity of the ceramic material as well as by the geometry of the ceramic heating rod. By changing the conductive and non-conductive portions of its components, the conductivity of the ceramic material can be varied over a wide range. An additional advantage is due to the fact that, compared with known heating elements, higher temperatures and faster temperature changes are possible.
  • the electrical heating element according to the invention is intended, for example, for an air heater that can be operated with voltages of 48 V, as commonly used in ships and aircraft, or with 110 V, 230 V, or 380 V provided as line voltages by electrical power companies.
  • the electrical resistance of the ceramic rod-shaped heating resistor must be sufficiently high. This can be achieved either by a high specific resistance of the electrically conductive ceramic material and/or by the geometric design of the ceramic heating resistor.
  • the electrical resistance heating element where the conductive ceramic material has a specific resistance of between 0.01 and 1.0 ⁇ -cm and/or where the ratio of the length to the cross-sectional area of the ceramic material of the heating resistor is between 1 and 500 cm ⁇ 1 .
  • oblong heating elements must be used for the resistance heating element according to the invention.
  • a U-shaped rod-shaped heating resistor offers advantages. This doubles the length of the ceramic heating rod and therefore its electrical resistance value.
  • several preferably U-shaped heating resistors may be provided. Depending on the values of the available voltage supply and the desired power, they may be connected parallel or in series.
  • the ends of the rod-shaped heating resistors are coated with a layer of metal.
  • This coating may be applied by means of vapor deposits or by sputtering, for example.
  • a metal paste is used that typically contains silver and possibly an additional precious metal, such as platinum or palladium.
  • the carrier plates holding the heating resistor are formed out of an electrically non-conductive ceramic material. Except for the electrical conductivity, the carrier plates have specific material characteristics that are similar to those of the ceramic heating rod.
  • the carrier plates preferably have recesses that match the cross-sectional shape of the heating resistor and serve to accept the ends of the heating resistor, and also have passages through which the flow of the gaseous medium are able to pass.
  • the resistance heating element according to the invention has several ceramic heating rods that are arranged concentrically around the center of the heating element. With its front and rear end sections, each U-shaped heating resistor is held positively in the recesses of the carrier plates, with the carrier plates being fixed to each other by means of a common central pin extending in the axial direction. Through the recesses of the carrier plate on the canal inlet side, the heating resistors are connected electrically to each other and to the power supply lines. In addition, the flow of the medium is able to pass through the flow canal that extends between the two carrier plates and in which at least one heating resistor is located by passing through the passages of the two carrier plates.
  • the heating resistor is positively connected to the carrier plates.
  • the carrier plates may be permanently connected to each other before, during, or after the sintering process.
  • heating elements produced in this way are self-supporting and do not need to be guided or supported by an additional element.
  • the carrier plates that hold the ceramic heating resistors on both sides must be able to withstand temperatures far in excess of 1000° C., for example, at the air outlet side of the resistance heating element.
  • the U-shaped ceramic heating resistor may have a flat or a structured surface. Preference is given to an embodiment of the invention where the heating resistor has indentations and/or raised areas in order to enlarge the surface area that is in contact with the gaseous medium, as compared with a flat surface. Besides providing as large a surface area as possible for the heat exchange with the flowing medium, this more complex geometry also has the effect of creating turbulence in the medium flowing past the heating resistor in the flow canal. This turbulence promotes the uniform and homogeneous heating of the entire flow of the medium.
  • the conductive ceramic material of the heating resistor consists of a mixed ceramic material with a conductive and a non-conductive component, with the conductive ceramic component having a positive thermal coefficient between 0 and 10,000 ppm/K.
  • MoSi 2 molybdenum disilicide
  • Al 2 O 3 aluminum oxide
  • the preferably positive thermal coefficient should not rise too steeply because this might lead to the formation of hot spots. Also, a steep flank of the specific resistance should not occur within the operating temperature up to approximately 1500° C., as is the case with some electrically conductive ceramic materials with positive thermal coefficients.
  • the mixed ceramic material may also contain additional additives for improving the sintering characteristics or the stability. It is also possible to partially substitute other insulating ceramic materials such as oxide or nitride or silicate ceramic material for the aluminum oxide.
  • the specific resistance of the material can be set within a certain range by the proportion of the conductive component. A proportion of 20 to 30% of molybdenum disilicide in the mixed ceramic material proved to be ideal. This makes it possible to achieve specific resistances between 0.01 and 1.0 ⁇ -cm at room temperature that increase by a factor of three or more up to 1000° C.
  • the heating device according to the invention for example for a hot air device, with a resistance heating element that is arranged in the flow of the gaseous medium and is surrounded by a heating tube, includes an electrical resistance heating element according to the invention.
  • air or gas At one end of the heating tube, air or gas, for example, is blown in as a medium, and the heated flow of air or gas exits from the other end of the heating tube.
