Apparatus for heating, storing and transferring of heat

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6759828
A heat accumulating and heat transferring apparatus is described comprising: a hollowed vessel spherically arranged and a heat conducting inner liner internally arranged along the innermost spherically surface; the hollowed vessel spherically arranged, having ports disposed opposite each other, one port to receive fuel injection/firing means and the other to receive a pressure regulator control valve; the hollowed vessel spherically arranged where the fuel injection may be combusted in a systematic manner based on the demand of the pressure regulator valve, releasing in the combustion process heat energy; the hollowed vessel spherically arranged where the pressure control valve is permitted to allow the evacuation of excess pressure, in terms of build up heat into a secondary heat exchanger; the hollowed vessel which is spherically arranged where the heat energy is allowed to be absorbed through the inner liner, into a heat storage chamber.
