Abstract
Heat exchanger comprising a first enclosure in which heat is supplied, in thermal contact with at least one second enclosure at the top of which arrives a cold heat transfer fluid in the liquid state and at least one pipe, placed in the second enclosure, via which the fluid is discharged in the form of vapor or a liquid-vapor mixture, wherein the second enclosure incorporates a filling making it possible to regulate the outflow of fluid to the bottom of the second container and the partial transformation of said fluid into vapor which can escape by means of the pipe which, for this purpose, has holes arranged over its entire height.
Claims3
A heat exchanger comprising a first enclosure, in which heat is supplied, in thermal contact with at least one second enclosure at the top of which arrives a cold heat transfer fluid in the liquid state, and at least one pipe, placed in the second enclosure and ported at the top to the exterior of said enclosure, via which the fluid is discharged in the form of vapour or a liquid-vapour mixture, wherein the second enclosure incorporates a filling making it possible to regulate the flow of fluid to the bottom of the second container and the partial transformation of said fluid into vapour which can escape by means of the pipe which, for this purpose, has holes arranged over its entire height, said heat being supplied by means of a salt fused by the high latent fusion heat stored in the first enclosure.
