Stéphane BilodeauAn energy recuperation system for storing energy in a process for subsequent supply to an energy demand in the process comprises a recuperation storage system having a phase -change storage material. Recuperation circuitry between the energy loss/availability, the energy demand of the process/proces ...
Stéphane BilodeauAn energy accumulator system (10) for accumulating heat from a heat source (A) for subsequent supply to a heat demand (B), comprises an energy accumulator (11) having a storage material in a heat exchange relation with the heat source (A) so as to store heat produced by the heat source (A). A contro ...
A process to clear pipelines carrying fluids viscous and/or rich in organic residues includes the introduction of a heating element inside a pipeline carrying the fluids through a coupling spool which is intercalated in the fluid-carrying pipeline. Simultaneously an electric current is applied to th ...
In a heat-generating pipe comprising a ferromagnetic pipe and an insulated conductor line installed therethrough wherein an AC flows through concentratedly in the inner skin region thereof due to the skin effect of AC heat quantity generated in the heat generating pipe is locally controlled by chang ...
Deionized pretreated supply water is stored in a storage unit, and a part of the stored water is recirculated through a pure water recirculation loop. The recirculated water is polished in polishing demineralizers to an electrical resistivity at the circulating temperature equivalent to 18 megohm el ...
An electronic thermostat operative to be connected to a furnace or other temperature modifying apparatus, to control its state of operation, includes means for generating a desired temperature set point signal and means for measuring ambient temperature on the thermostat. When the ambient temperatur ...
A zone thermostat for use in connection with an Electronically-Controlled Register vent (ECRV) that can be easily installed by a homeowner or general handyman is disclosed. The ECRV can be used to convert a non-zoned HVAC system into a zoned system. The ECRV can also be used in connection with a con ...
A method and control is provided wherein the sensors in a plurality of zones are properly associated with the dampers associated for each of the zones after installation. A technician goes to each zone and sends a signal from the sensor, and the control then makes a change at the associated damper. ...
Retaining clips are provided by the present invention for use in a novel method of constructing radiant heat flooring. The clips are used to secure heating pipe that has been laid on top of a wire grid. The pipe is secured by attaching the retaining clip to the wire grid so that the retaining clip p ...
A zone climate control system and method of its operation. A zone can be a single room. A method for determining which zones' vents are to be closed, and which are to be opened, in performing heating or cooling, circulation to heat or cool a zone by mixing its air with air from another zone, circula ...
