Pulse combustion residential water heater. Annual report Nov 80-Oct 81
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5964825
The objective was to develop a domestic water heater based on the pulse combustion principle, thus significantly reducing natural gas costs for the residential consumer. With the cost of natural gas rising, it is important to develop fuel efficient residential appliances which will be economically attractive to the consumer. The pulse combustion principle has been proven to reduce fuel consumption significantly in residential furnaces and is expected to show similar results when applied to domestic water heaters. Direct venting, which is possible with pulse combustion burners, provides an additional economic benefit: the consumer who elects to install a pulse combustion water heater and furnace in a new building will not require a chimney.
