Solar Energy Augmented Water Heating System
US Patent:
4052000, Oct 4, 1977
Filed:
Apr 19, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/677912
Inventors:
Terence C. Honikman - Santa Barbara CA
International Classification:
F24J 302, F24D 300
US Classification:
237 1A
Abstract:
Solar energy is utilized to augment the heater of a water heating system, such as a domestic hot water system, having a water storage and heating tank by conducting water to the tank through a solar energy storage tank and circulating a heat transport liquid through a solar collector and selectively through the solar tank and water tank in response to the collector temperature, the solar tank temperature, and the water tank temperature, in a manner such that heat transport liquid flow occurs in a normal solar energy storage mode through the collector and the solar tank under a first set of temperature conditions, and cascade fashion through the collector, the water tank, and then the solar tank in a cascade solar energy storage mode under a second set of temperature conditions and in a maximum solar energy storage mode under a third set of temperature conditions. Heat transport liquid flow may occur through the solar collector and solar tank in response to a preset low collector temperature to prevent freezing of liquid in the collector, and the water tank heater may be shut off in response to a high collector and water temperature condition to conserve energy. The invention also provides novel solar collector and tank heat exchanger structures for the heating system.
Freeze Protection For Solar Heating Systems
US Patent:
4133338, Jan 9, 1979
Filed:
Sep 1, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/829730
Inventors:
Terence C. Honikman - Santa Barbara CA
International Classification:
F24J 302
US Classification:
126271
Abstract:
Redundant freeze protection having primary and secondary protection modes is provided for a solar heating system, such as a solar water heating system, of the kind whose normal operation involves circulation of a heat transport liquid through a solar collector and a solar energy storage tank to store solar thermal energy in the tank. The primary protection mode is triggered in response to the collector liquid temperature, T. sub. c, dropping to a selected freeze protection trigger level, T. sub. f, and involves termination of liquid circulation through and draining of liquid from the collector. The secondary or back up freeze protection mode occurs upon failure of the collector drainage means to drain the collector in the primary mode in response to the freeze protection trigger condition T. sub. c. ltoreq. T. sub. f and involves continued circulation of liquid through the collector and solar energy storage tank to warm the collector.
Medical Irrigation Device
US Patent:
4880408, Nov 14, 1989
Filed:
May 2, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/189220
Inventors:
David M. Cumes - Santa Barbara CA
Terence C. Honikman - Santa Barbara CA
Terence C. Honikman - Santa Barbara CA
International Classification:
A61M 518
US Classification:
604 36
Abstract:
A medical irrigation device which enables the introduction of a sterile fluid ito a urinary bladder and thereafter the withdrawal of the fluid containing particulate matter such as prestatic tissue, blood clots and stones is provided. The device enables the reintroduction into the bladder of the withdrawn fluid relatively free of particulate matter.
