HEATING DEVICE FOR FLUID Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC F24J1/00 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: fluid heating device includes a reservoir for holding the fluid to be heated and a fuel briquette hydraulically connected with the fluid (and the fuel briquette comprises of a fuel mixture containing reagents and a catalyst) and an ignition source which is thermally coupled with the fuel mixture and the catalyst. The ignition source is selected from the group consisting of an induction heating device, an electrical resistor, a heating device that uses natural gas combustion, and a heating device that uses fuel combustion. The fuel briquette is configured to provide thermal coupling with said fluid. The resistor is designed to be connected to a voltage source. The device further comprises a controller coupled to said voltage source and a temperature sensor. The fuel mixture contains lithium and lithium aluminium hydride. The catalyst comprises of a group element 10. The controller is configured to monitor the temperature from the temperature sensor and, based on the at least partially specified temperature, repeatedly accelerate the reaction in the fuel mixture. Repeated acceleration of said reaction involves changing the voltage of said voltage source.

EFFECT: obtained high outlet temperature.
