US Patent:

7036462, May 2, 2006

Filed:

Mar 2, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/070534

Inventors:

Kenneth W. Cohen - Fort Lee NJ, US

Assignee:

Mestek, Inc. - Westfield MA

International Classification:

F22B 13/02

US Classification:

122 30, 122 10

Abstract:

A boiler apparatus includes a housing defining an interior boiler chamber and a burner element arranged to be in thermal communication with the boiler chamber. An ignition device is provided for instigating combustion of an inlet gas stream, and is arranged adjacent one edge of the burner element. A gas restricting device is utilized for restricting contact between the burner element and the inlet gas stream such that the inlet gas stream is initially incident upon the one edge of the burner element, thereby forcing the inlet gas stream to propagate across the burner element from the one edge.

Westcast, Inc. - Westfield MA

International Classification:

F24H 1/34

US Classification:

392461, 392465, 126 151

Abstract:

A water heater system includes a boiler having a supply port, an output port and a recirculation input port. A heat exchanger includes first input and output ports, and second input and output ports. An averaging tank has an inlet and an outlet. A first fluid flow subsystem is for controllably directing water along a primary loop through the boiler and from the output port of the boiler to the input recirculation port via either a first path through the first ports of the heat exchanger or a second path bypassing the heat exchanger. A second fluid flow subsystem is for directing water along a secondary loop through the second ports of the heat exchanger, through the inlet and outlet of the averaging tank, and back to the heat exchanger, whereby water directed through the secondary loop is heated from water directed through the primary loop via the heat exchanger.

Abstract:

A modular boiler system includes a boiler control, a first boiler in operative connection with the boiler control, and a temperature sensor in operative connection with the first boiler. The system also features at least one secondary boiler in operative connection with the master boiler. The boiler control is operatively connected to only the first boiler and it enables the first boiler to control a boiler parameter of the first boiler and the at least one secondary boiler.

Abstract:

A modulating boiler system for heating a structure including a controller, a boiler operatively connected to the controller, and a thermostat operatively connected to the controller and boiler. The controller assesses a level of thermostat activity over a predetermined measuring period and adjusts the boiler in response to the level of activity to increase the boiler's efficiency.

Inventors:

Kenneth Cohen - Fort Lee NJ, US

Assignee:

Westcast, Inc. - Westfield MA

International Classification:

F24H 7/00

US Classification:

432030000

Abstract:

A fuel equalization system includes a filter box for accepting an air stream and a fuel stream, the air stream and the fuel stream mixing to form a mixed air/fuel stream. A blower is provided that has an inlet for accepting the mixed air/fuel stream from the filter box. An air deflection member is positioned in the path of the mixed air/fuel stream, between the filter box and the inlet, so as to reduce the turbulence of the mixed air/fuel stream.

Appl. No.:

Inventors:

Kenneth W. Cohen - Harrington Park NJ

Assignee:

International Classification:

US Classification:

Abstract:

A water heater supplies hot water at a variable flow rate, depending on demand, and at a substantially constant, controlled temperature. It comprises a heat exchanger formed with an inlet and an outlet whereby water can be supplied to and withdrawn from the heat exchanger in accordance with demand and means for passing a second fluid such as steam through the heat exchanger coil to heat the water. A temperature gradient is thus established in the water in the direction of its flow through the heat exchanger. A sense tube forms a substantially homogeneous mixture of different portions of the water, these portions being drawn from sampling points spaced apart along the temperature gradient and in relative proportions depending on the flow rate of the water through the heat exchanger. The temperature of the water in the sense tube is detected, and control means responds to the sensed temperature for controlling the rate at which steam is supplied to heat the water. Thus a combined set point and feed forward control is established that minimizes fluctuations in the temperature of the hot water as withdrawn for end uses by anticipating changes in BTU requirements.
