Abstract
Heat exchanger, comprising a series of interconnected modules, each module comprising at least part of a water duct and part of a flue duct, wherein at least the parts of the water ducts of successive modules are interconnected, forming at least one continuous water duct through and/or along a number of said modules, wherein water duct parts of two adjacent modules are interconnected by a connector inserted into an opening in at least one of the modules forming a sealing connection.
Claims26
Heat exchanger, comprising a series of interconnected modules, each module comprising at least part of a water duct and part of a flue duct, wherein at least the parts of the water ducts of successive modules are interconnected, forming at least one continuous water duct through and/or along a number of said modules, wherein water duct parts of two adjacent modules are interconnected by a connector inserted into an opening in at least one of the modules forming a sealing connection,
- wherein the connector is provided with at least one opening, extending through a wall part thereof, for injecting a bonding agent between an outer surface part of the connector and an inner surface part of the opening in the at least one of the modules.
Module comprising at least part of a water duct and part of a flue duct, the module further comprising a connector inserted into the part of the water duct, wherein the connector is provided with at least one opening, extending through a wall part thereof, for injecting a bonding agent between an outer surface part of the connector and an inner surface of the module, said connector configured for forming a sealing connection between the part of the water duct and a part of a water duct of a successive module when interconnected.
Heat exchanger, comprising a series of interconnected modules, each module comprising at least part of a water duct and part of a flue duct, wherein at least the parts of the water ducts of successive modules are interconnected, forming at least two continuous water ducts through and/or along a number of said modules, wherein water duct parts of two adjacent modules are interconnected by a connector inserted into an opening in at least one of the modules forming a sealing connection, wherein the modules each further comprise a flue inlet and a flue outlet, and wherein the part of the flue duct of each module connects said flue inlet with said flue outlet, wherein an inlet for the part of the water duct in said module is closer to the flue outlet than to the flue inlet and wherein an outlet for the part of the water duct in said module is closer to the flue inlet than to the flue outlet, and wherein
- each of said interconnected modules further comprises a duct part extending around an opening near an upper end of the module, wherein said part of the flue duct comprises said opening and extends through each module, providing a continuous opening through the series of modules that forms a burner chamber for the heat exchanger, wherein a first of said at least two continuous water ducts extends above said burner chamber and a second of said at least two continuous water ducts extends below said burner chamber.
