- The present invention relates to a combustion apparatus having an intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger, and more particularly, to a combustion apparatus having an intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger, in which heat exchange is performed between exhaust gas generated from a burner and exhausted to the outside and intake air flowing from the outside.
- In general, a combustion apparatus is to heat water using combustion heat that is generated in a combustion process of fuel and circulate the heated water along a pipe so that the circulated water is used to heat a room or supply heated water, and includes a water heater and a boiler.
- Such a combustion apparatus includes a burner that combusts fuel gas to generate high-temperature thermal energy, a combustion chamber in which combustion of a mixture of air and gas is performed by the flame generated from the burner, a heat exchanger in which heat exchange is performed between exhaust gas having passed through the combustion chamber and water having passed through the inside of the pipe, and an exhaust gas duct that discharges, to the outside, the exhaust gas in which heat exchange has been performed in the heat exchanger, and an exhaust flue for discharging the exhaust gas to the outside of a building is connected to the exhaust gas duct.
- Since the exhaust gas discharged to the outside through the exhaust flue is high-temperature gas, the exhaust flue is made of aluminum or stainless steel as a heat-resistant metal material, so that there is a problem that manufacturing costs increase.
- In case of some countries, when the temperature of the exhaust gas discharged through the exhaust flue is low, the exhaust flue is allowed to be made of an inexpensive synthetic resin material, but the exhaust gas having passed through the heat exchanger is high temperature gas, so that the exhaust flue is difficult to be made of the synthetic resin material.

- Also, a temperature sensor for measuring the temperature of the exhaust gas passing through the inside of the exhaust gas duct may be provided in the exhaust gas duct, and a control unit may control to stop the operation of the combustion apparatus when the temperature measured by the temperature sensor is a set temperature or higher.

- Also, a condensed water discharge pipe for discharging condensed water may be connected to the outlet side exhaust gas duct connected to the exhaust gas passage.
- According to the combustion apparatus of the present invention, by heating intake air using the waste heat of exhaust gas exhausted to the outside, the efficiency of the combustion apparatus may be improved.
- Also, by manufacturing an intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger using a thin film, instead of manufacturing an existing heat exchanger formed of an expensive metal plate, the manufacturing costs may be reduced, the heat exchangers having various sizes may be manufactured, and the durability of the heat exchanger may be improved thanks to excellent chemical performances such as water resistance, salt resistance, chemical resistance, and the like.
- Also, by lowering the temperature of exhaust gas exhausted to the outside, the exhaust flue may be made of a synthetic resin material, and thereby may reduce the installation costs of the combustion apparatus.
- Also, by making the dropping direction of condensed water coincide with the flowing direction of exhaust gas, the heat exchange efficiency in the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger may be improved.
- Also, by making the distance between thin film plates forming an intake air passage smaller than the distance between thin film plates forming an exhaust gas passage, the heat exchange area may be increased and thereby the efficiency may be improved.

combustion apparatus 1 according to the present invention may be applied to a boiler that performs heating or a water heater that supplies heated water, or applied to a device that combines heating and supply of heated water. - The
main heat exchanger 300 includes asensible heat exchanger 310 that absorbs combustion sensible heat generated by theburner 200 and alatent heat exchanger 320 that absorbs latent heat of the exhaust gas having passed through thesensible heat exchanger 320. - In the
latent heat exchanger 320, condensed water is generated due to the absorption of the latent heat of the exhaust gas, and the generated condensed water is discharged through a condensedwater discharge port 610. A water trap (not shown) having a siphon structure to ensure that the water trap is kept in a state of being filled with the condensed water at a predetermined water level or more is connected to the condensedwater discharge port 610, so that the exhaust gas is prevented from being introduced into the room through the condensedwater discharge port 610 during the operation of the boiler. - The intake air/exhaust
air heat exchanger 500 is provided at a point in which theintake air ducts exhaust gas ducts - The
intake air ducts intake air duct 110 that supplies the intake air introduced from the outside to the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500, and the outlet sideintake air duct 120 that is provided between the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500 and theblower 100 so that the intake air that has been heated while passing through the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500 is supplied to theblower 100. - An
intake port 111 is connected to the inlet sideintake air duct 110, and an intake flue (not shown) for the inflow of external air is provided in theintake port 111. - In the present embodiment, a case in which the outlet side
intake air duct 120 is connected to theblower 100 has been described, but a case in which there is no outlet sideintake air duct 120 is possible. In this case, the intake air having passed through the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500 is discharged to the interior space of thecombustion apparatus 1, and when theblower 100 is operated, air in the interior space of thecombustion apparatus 1 is introduced into theblower 100. - The
exhaust gas ducts exhaust gas duct 410 that allows the exhaust gas having passed through themain heat exchanger 300 to be introduced into the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500, and the outlet sideexhaust gas duct 420 that allows the exhaust gas that has been cooled by heat exchange performed between the exhaust gas and the intake air to be discharged to the outside. - An
exhaust port 421 is connected to the outlet sideexhaust gas duct 420, and theexhaust flue 440 that is connected to the outside of a building in order to discharge the exhaust gas to the outside is connected to theexhaust port 421. - The exhaust gas is discharged to the outside in a state in which the temperature of the exhaust gas is lowered by heat exchange performed between the intake air and the exhaust gas while passing through the intake air/exhaust
air heat exchanger 500, and therefore theexhaust flue 440 may be made of a synthetic resin material. When theexhaust flue 440 is made of the synthetic resin material, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing costs of thecombustion apparatus 1. - In the inlet side
exhaust gas duct 410, atemperature sensor 430 for measuring the temperature of the exhaust gas passing through the inside of the inlet sideexhaust gas duct 410 is provided. When the temperature measured by thetemperature sensor 430 is a temperature set in a control unit (not shown) or higher, the control unit controls to stop the operation of thecombustion apparatus 1 in order to protect the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500 constituted of thin films. - In the present embodiment, a case in which the
temperature sensor 430 is provided in the inlet sideexhaust gas duct 410 has been described, but a case in which thetemperature sensor 430 is provided in the outlet sideexhaust gas duct 420 is possible. In this case, whether there is a need to protect the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500 constituted of the thin films from the temperature of the exhaust gas passing through the inside of the outlet sideexhaust gas duct 420 may be determined - The intake air/exhaust
air heat exchanger 500 includes the plurality ofthin film plates first spacers thin film plates intake air passages intake air ducts second spacers first spacers exhaust gas ducts exhaust gas passages exhaust gas passages intake air passages - Each of the
thin film plates first spacers second spacers - When the thickness of the film is relatively large, the heat transfer efficiency between the exhaust gas and the intake air is reduced, so that the exhaust gas is discharged in a state in which the temperature of the exhaust gas is relatively high and the intake air is introduced in a state in which the temperature of the intake air is relatively low, and therefore the outlet side
exhaust gas duct 420 is difficult to be made of the synthetic resin material, which leads to an increase in the costs. In addition, the temperature of the mixture of air and gas introduced into theburner 200 cannot be raised, so that the efficiency is reduced and an amount of thermal energy that is wasted as waste heat is increased, which leads to a reduction in the efficiency. - Each of the
first spacers second spacers thin film plates thin film plates - The
thin film plates first spacers second spacers - By the above-described configuration, the intake air/exhaust
air heat exchanger 500 is provided to absorb the waste heat of the exhaust gas so that the energy efficiency may be increased, and the intake air is heated using the exhaust gas and then supplied to theburner 200 so that the combustion efficiency may be improved. In addition, the exhaust gas is discharged to the outside after the temperature of the exhaust gas has dropped in the intake air/exhaustair heat exchanger 500, and therefore the installation costs of thecombustion apparatus 1 may be reduced when the outlet sideexhaust gas duct 420 is made of a synthetic resin material. - In addition, the intake air/exhaust
air heat exchanger 500 may be manufactured using the thin film, and therefore heat exchangers having various sizes may be manufactured, and the durability of the heat exchanger may be improved thanks to excellent chemical performances such as water resistance, salt resistance, chemical resistance, and the like. -

Here,FIG. 3( a) shows a state in which an intake air duct and an exhaust gas duct are coupled to the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger, andFIG. 3( b) shows a cross-sectional structure of the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger. - Referring to
FIG. 3( a), in an intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1, an inlet side intake air duct 110-1 through which external air is introduced and an outlet side intake air duct 120-1 for supplying the external air having passed through the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1 to theblower 100 side are provided. In addition, in the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1, an inlet side exhaust gas duct 410-1 through which exhaust gas on which heat exchange has been performed in themain heat exchanger 300 passes and an outlet side exhaust gas duct 420-1 for discharging, to the outside, the exhaust gas on which heat exchange with the intake air has been performed are provided. - Referring to
FIG. 3( b), the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1 includes a plurality of thin film plates 530-1, 531-1, and 532-1, first spacers 541-1 and 543-1 which are provided to separate the thin film plates 530-1, 531-1, and 532-1 from one another and form intake air passages 510-1 and 511-1 connected to the intake air ducts 110-1 and 120-1, and second spacers 540-1 and 542-1 which are alternately laminated and arranged with the first spacers 541-1 and 543-1 while being connected to the exhaust gas ducts 410-1 and 420-1 to form exhaust gas passages 520-1 and 521-1 so that heat exchange is performed between the exhaust gas passages 520-1 and 521-1 and the intake air passages 510-1 and 511-1. - Here, the inlet side exhaust gas duct 410-1 is connected to an upper side of the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1, and the outlet side exhaust gas duct 420-1 is connected to a lower side of the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1. When connection is achieved in this manner, the exhaust gas is introduced from upper sides of the exhaust gas passages 520-1 and 521-1 inside the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1 and flows vertically downward.
- As shown in
FIG. 2 , when theexhaust gas passages air heat exchanger 500 is brought into contact with the exhaust gas flowing in the horizontal direction while the condensed water drops within theexhaust gas passages - In the case of the embodiment of
FIG. 3 , by making the dropping direction of the condensed water coincide with the flowing direction of the exhaust gas, a reduction in the heat exchange efficiency in the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1 may be prevented. - Meanwhile, the condensed water may be generated in the exhaust gas passages 520-1 and 521-1 of the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-1, and the generated condensed water may be discharged through a condensed water discharge pipe 450-1 connected to the outlet side exhaust gas duct 420-1. The condensed water discharge pipe 450-1 is connected to the above-described water trap, so that the exhaust gas is discharged through the exhaust flue without being discharged to the room through the condensed water discharge pipe 450-1.
-
FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing an intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger according to another embodiment of the present invention. - An intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-2 includes a plurality of thin film plates 530-2, 531-2, 532-2, and 533-2, first spacers 541-2 and 543-2 which are provided to separate the thin film plates 530-2, 531-2, 532-2, and 533-2 from one another and form intake air passages 510-2 and 511-2 connected to intake air ducts, and second spacers 540-2 and 542-2 which are alternately laminated and arranged with the first spacers 541-2 and 543-2 while being connected to exhaust gas ducts to form exhaust gas passages 520-2 and 521-2 so that heat exchange is performed between the exhaust gas passages 520-1 and 521-1 and the intake air passages 510-2 and 511-2.
- Condensed water may be generated in the exhaust gas passages 520-2 and 521-2, and it is preferable that a distance h1 between the thin film plates 530-2 to 531-2 and 532-2 to 533-2 forming the exhaust gas passages 520-2 and 521-2 be maintained at such a distance that the condensed water can be smoothly discharged.
- In contrast, only air flows in the intake air passages 510-2 and 511-2, and therefore the distance h1 between the thin film plates 532-2 and 533-2 forming the intake air passages 510-2 and 511-2 may be smaller than a distance h2 between the thin film plates 531-2 and 532-2 forming the exhaust gas passages 520-2 and 521-2.
- In this manner, when the distance h1 between the thin film plates 532-2 and 533-2 forming the intake air passages 510-2 and 511-2 is made smaller, an area in which heat exchange is performed is increased together with an increase in the number of the intake air passages 510-2 and 511-2 and the exhaust gas passages 520-2 and 521-2 within the intake air/exhaust air heat exchanger 500-2 having the same size, thereby improving the efficiency.
- While the invention has been shown and described with reference to certain exemplary embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
