Abstract
A hot-water storage type boiler having a vortex guide portion is proposed. Since the present invention includes a spiral portion inside a casing, water supplied into the casing is moved to the upper side of the space part, while being in contact with fire tubes for a long time by moving spirally along the spiral portion, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency of the fire tubes. In addition, since the water supplied into the casing is moved spirally along the spiral portion to form a vortex, the flow of water moving in the direction of a hot-water discharge portion collides with a firebox lower surface part at a high speed, thereby having an effect of preventing scale from accumulating on the firebox lower surface part.
Claims10
A hot-water storage type boiler having a vortex guide portion, the hot-water storage type boiler comprising:
- a casing having a space part therein and provided with an independent firebox at a position above the space part;
- a burner injecting flames into the firebox;
- a plurality of fire tubes having a first side connected to a lower surface of the firebox and a second side extending downward in the space part;
- the vortex guide portion having a spiral portion spirally provided along a vertical direction of the casing in the space part;
- and
- an exhaust part provided at a position below the casing and connected to the fire tubes, wherein the flames injected by the burner are moved along an inside of the fire tubes while heating the fire tubes and then moved to the exhaust part, and water supplied to a first side of the space part moves spirally along the spiral portion and moves to a second side of the space part.
