摘要： A hot water heater in which water is heated by passing it through a heat exchanging coil positioned in a tank filled with a heat exchanging liquid, such as water. Flue gases are drawn from a burner by a jet pump positioned in the tank, the gases passing through a second heat exchanging coil. The jet pump is driven by heat exchanging liquid from the tank circulated by an auxiliary pump. The flue gases are mixed with the heat exchanging liquid by the jet pump causing the flue gases to be washed and cooled before they are vented off from the top of the tank.

摘要： A temperature sensitive liquid level controlling apparatus employs a pair of carbon resistors, each having a resistance which changes in response to immersion in a low temperature liquid, for determining upper and lower levels of the liquid in a container. The resistances of the resistors are compared with those of reference resistors to provide a signal for controlling a flow of the liquid into the container. A liquid cooling system incorporating this liquid level controlling apparatus displaces the liquid from a second container into the first-mentioned container by supplying a gaseous phase of the liquid into the second container, the signal being used to operate a two-way valve in the liquid passage for venting the second container through the liquid passage and for permitting the flow of the liquid from the second container through the liquid passage.

At least one injector is formed in the downstream end of the body portion and in flow communication with the fuel supply, whereby fuel is provided to the cavity through the fuel injector bars in accordance with a Rich-Quench-Lean (RQL) process. Consistent with such RQL process, fresh air is provided through flow passages of the dome inlet module directly into the combustion chamber to maximize the distance available for effecting good mixing and rapid dilution of the combustion gases to a lean state.
