Abstract
The present disclosure is related to nested heating systems. The heating system uses nested thermoelectric heating assemblies, and hot temperatures can be increased by adding intermediate nested heating assemblies. Intermediate and/or inner assemblies may be removed from the outer assembly to allow for easy transport.
Claims15
A nested thermal heating system, the system comprising:
- a first heating assembly comprising:
- a first housing;
- a first heating apparatus inside the first housing comprising at least one thermoelectric module embedded in the first housing;
- a first thermal conductive layer forming a first cavity inside the first housing;
- a second heating assembly disposed within the first cavity, the second heating assembly comprising:
- a second housing;
- a second heating apparatus comprising at least one thermoelectric module embedded in the second housing;
- and
- a second thermal conductive layer forming a second cavity inside the second housing;
- and
- a power circuit configured to communicate power to the second heating apparatus, wherein the power circuit is one of:
- an inductive power circuit, an inductive resonance circuit, and an optical power circuit.
