Abstract
A heat-generating device comprising a solution tank containing a heat-generating composition composed of a solution capable of generating the heat of absorption when absorbing a solvent and a certain specific oil, a solvent tank for supplying the solvent to the solution tank, and a heat-exchanging chamber disposed between the vapor phase of the solution tank and the solvent tank. This device can be utilized in a heating or cooling system a hot water supply system, etc.
Claims6
A heat-generating device comprising a solution tank containing a heat-generating composition composed of a solution capable of generating the heat of absorption when absorbing a solvent vapor and an oil having a lower specific gravity than said solution, a solvent tank for supplying the solvent to the solution tank via nozzle means, heating means for heating said solvent and said heat-generating composition, and a heat-exchanging chamber disposed between the vapor phase of the solution tank and the solvent tank, connection means between said heat-exchanging chamber and said solvent tank for fluidly connecting said heat-exchanging chamber and said solvent tank, said connection means including one-way valve means allowing fluid flow only from said heat exchanging chamber to said solvent tank, and means connected in heat exchange relation with said heat-exchanging chamber and receiving heat therefrom.
