COMBINED DRINKING AND PROCESS WATER HEATER POWERED BY RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES IN LIVESTOCK BUILDING Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC F24D17/02 A01K29/00 F24H8/00 

FIELD: energy; agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention is intended to utilize the thermal energy of removed ventilation air from the livestock building and the thermal energy of solar radiation to heat water for watering animals and heating water for technical purposes. As a result of the use of the proposed invention , energy costs are reduced while simultaneously heating drinking water for animals and process water for technical purposes using renewable energy sources, for heating drinking water due to the thermal energy released by animals and removed heated ventilation air, using a thermoelectric heat pump consisting of a thermoelectric Peltier module and heat pipes that transfer the heat flow of the removed heated ventilation air to cold drinking water to heat the water, located in the drinking water storage tank, to 12-15°C, and thermal energy from conversion of solar radiation into heat using a solar collector with heat pipes that transfer thermal energy of solar radiation to heat water located in a storage tank for process water to 60-65°C for technical purposes.

EFFECT: reduced energy costs; heated drinking water.
