    摘要: A water heating solar module designed for being connected to a boiler of a water heating system, the module comprises a vessel having a water inlet and a water outlet, a first heating element installed in the vessel, and a power supply for feeding the first heating element with electric power produced from solar energy. The module is arranged as follows: the vessel is positioned near the boiler, so that the vessel's bottom portion is placed not higher than the boiler's bottom portion; the water inlet is provided at the vessel's bottom portion and is adapted for receiving water from the boiler; the water outlet is provided at the vessel's top portion and is adapted for delivering water from the vessel to the boiler; the power supply is electrically connectable to a photoelectric device for receiving electric energy there-from, and to the first heating element, for heating water in the vessel. The invention also describes a system comprising the described module connected to the mentioned boiler, and a method of upgrading an existing water heating solar system by the described module.

    摘要: Systems and methods for a thermosyphonic water heating system for a storage tank. A DC heat pump receives power from a DC power source and heats water via a heat exchanger using a thermosyphonic piping system. A passive back-flushing having a cold water inlet pipe connected to the hot water return pipe draws cold water into the storage tank through the heat exchanger. A vertical array of temperature sensors distributed throughout the storage tank monitor temperature of stored water at multiple heights and a communication unit communicates monitored data to an external control device.

    摘要: A portable hot water supply tank is adapted to be used with a heat source, and includes a water storage unit, a heat exchange unit, and a circulation unit. The water storage unit includes a base member defining a lower water chamber. The heat exchange unit includes a heat exchanger connected to the base member. The circulation unit includes an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. The heat exchanger is movable relative to the base member between an unfolded position and a folded position. When the heat exchanger is at the first position, water stored in the lower water chamber is drawn into the inlet pipe, flows through the heat exchanger to be heated by the heat source, and eventually flows back to the lower water chamber via the outlet pipe.
