Development of water heater using tubular flame - Heat transfer characteristics on the coiled tube and the inserted tube heat exchangers -

The purpose of this study is to develop the compact auxiliary water heater using tubular flame for home CHP (combined heat and power). The tubular-flame water-heater consists of the tubular flame burner, the coiled tube heat exchanger and the inserted tube installed at the center of the coiled tube...
