Abstract
A plasma heating apparatus including a boiler vessel for holding water to be heated, a cathode housed in the vessel, the cathode defining a watertight cathode chamber isolated from the water in the vessel, and, an anode housed in the cathode chamber, the anode including an internal passage for receiving a gas from outside of the vessel when the passage is connected to a gas supply, and wherein the anode is connectable to a power source for receiving power for generating a plasma in the cathode chamber. In another aspect, the present disclosure relates to a heat or power generating system or plant including the plasma heating apparatus.
Claims7
A plasma heating apparatus comprising:
- a boiler vessel for holding water to be heated,
- a cathode housed in the vessel, the cathode defining a watertight cathode chamber isolated from the water in the vessel, and,
- an anode housed in the cathode chamber, the anode comprising
- an internal passage for receiving a gas from outside of the vessel when the passage is connected to a gas supply,
- wherein the anode
