The present invention relates to a heat exchanger and condensation combustion chamber assembly, comprising a plurality of tubes and including a front plate and a rear plate connected to the combustion chamber with a drop pattern. Each of the heat exchanger tubes comprises a variable area cross section, with a flat portion at a middle region, to provide a larger thermal exchange surface. The middle region is subjected to a crossed cut molding process to provide a helical type of fume path, suitable to enhance the efficiency of the assembly, owing to an increased thermal exchange between the fumes and heated air flows. The combustion chamber having a cross section of drop shape allows to properly solve the problem related to the very high temperatures generated by recent cylindrical gas burners having a metal mesh surface generating great amounts of heat, which must be disposed of in a thermal exchange process with the heated air flow.
A heat exchanger and combustion chamber assembly, specifically designed for burners and heated air generators, characterized in that the heat exchanger comprises a plurality of tubes connected to one another and to said combustion chamber by a front plate and a rear plate, each said tubes having a cross section area decreasing from said front plate to said rear plate, for compensating for the loss of the volumes and the temperature of the fumes and for holding the fume rate substantially constant.
A tube sheet heat exchanger, for a passage of the fumes coming from a drop combustion chamber, comprising a plurality of tubes, supported by a front plate and a rear plate, characterized in that each said tube has a cross section having an area decreasing from the front plate to the rear plate to compensate for the volume loss and temperature of said fumes and hold a substantially constant fume rate.
