Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a device for heating a medium, including a burner unit and a flame tube, wherein the burner unit generates flue gas, wherein the flame tube has a flue gas inlet, a longitudinal axis, a casing extending along the longitudinal axis, and an end face opposite the flue gas inlet, wherein the flue gas passes from the burner unit into the flame tube via the flue gas inlet, wherein a plurality of recesses are located in the casing, and wherein the recesses have different dimensions and/or are distributed asymmetrically on the casing. The longitudinal axis is in a central plane, wherein a first side and a second side of the casing are formed by the central plane, and wherein recesses on the first side have smaller dimensions than recesses on the second side.
Claims5
A device for heating a medium, comprising:
- a burner unit and a flame tube,
- wherein the burner unit generates flue gas,
- wherein the flame tube has a flue gas inlet, a longitudinal axis, a casing extending along the longitudinal axis, and an end face opposite the flue gas inlet,
- wherein the flue gas passes from the burner unit into the flame tube via the flue gas inlet, wherein a plurality of recesses are located in the casing that are divided into a first set of recesses and a second set of recesses
- wherein the flame tube is horizontally arranged,
- wherein the longitudinal axis is in a central plane, wherein a first side and a second side of the casing are formed by the central plane such that the first side is arranged above the second side,
- wherein the first set of recesses are disposed on the first side and the second set of recesses are disposed on the second side, and
- wherein the recesses have different dimensions and are asymmetrically distributed on the casing, such that the first set of recesses disposed on the first side have smaller dimensions than the second set of recesses disposed on the second side.
