[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the described embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 :

[0029] The utility model provides a paraffin-covered open thermal storage heating system, which includes: a concrete base 1; an open thermal storage water tank 2 is installed on the left side of the upper end surface of the concrete base 1, and a heat exchanger 3 is installed on the right side of the upper end surface of the concrete base 1; a circulation water pump 4 is installed at the rear of the right side of the upper end surface of the concrete base 1, and the water outlet of the circulation water pump 4 is connected to the first water inlet at the rear end of the heat exchanger 3 through a water pipe; a control box 201 is installed on the right side of the front end surface of the open thermal storage water tank 2, and an audible and visual alarm 202 is installed on the top of the control box 201; heat storage fresh water 2011 is filled inside the open thermal storage water tank 2, and a paraffin layer 2012 floats on the water surface of the heat storage fresh water 2011;

[0030] The paraffin layer 2012 has the functions of oxygen barrier and corrosion prevention, and its corrosion prevention effect on the carbon steel open thermal storage water tank 2 is particularly obvious. Using this technology, the problem of easy oxidation and corrosion at the water-air interface can be avoided;

[0031] The paraffin layer 2012 also has the function of preventing water evaporation and steam generation, making its energy-saving effect more obvious. During the process of heating water, the paraffin mixing technology is adopted to block water and air, so that water no longer vaporizes below the boiling point;

[0032] The paraffin layer 2012 can also play a heat preservation role. Since the thermal conductivity of paraffin is 0.12 w / (m·K), which is less than that of water, a good heat preservation effect on the medium itself is achieved;

[0033] The paraffin layer 2012 can also improve the heat storage capacity. The phase change heat of paraffin is 200 kj / kg. When the phase change occurs at 52 °C, the heat storage capacity is equivalent to that of 1 kg of water rising from 50 °C to 97 °C. At the same time, when the paraffin is completely liquefied and heated from 52 °C to 95 °C, the specific heat physical property will also make 1 kg of water rise by 27.8 °C, and the heat storage capacity is much higher than that of water;

[0034] The paraffin layer 2012 also has incompatibility. Because water and paraffin are incompatible and the specific gravity of paraffin is lower than that of water, in engineering examples, if the water tank process is appropriate, paraffin will not enter the circulation system.

[0035] The paraffin layer 2012 also has good safety. Paraffin is a colorless, odorless and non-toxic organic material and can be recycled and reused; when the medium needs to be drained during system maintenance and repair, the medium must be cooled to below 40 °C. At this time, paraffin is in a solid state and can be completely recovered.

[0036] In use, first, fill the open thermal storage water tank 2 with thermal storage fresh water 2011, so that the thermal storage fresh water 2011 submerges the water level electrode 208. Then, heat the filled thermal storage fresh water 2011 to 90 degrees Celsius through the heating element 2010. Subsequently, add block or flake paraffin and let it fully melt (the paraffin will fully melt in 90-degree Celsius hot water) to form a paraffin layer 2012. Through the setting of the paraffin layer 2012, the phenomena of evaporation, gasification, and heat loss during the heating and energy storage process of the thermal storage fresh water 2011 can be prevented.

[0037] Then start the circulation water pump 4, so that one upper H-shaped water distributor 203 generates suction to transport the upper-layer thermal storage fresh water 2011 inside the open thermal storage water tank 2 to the inside of the heat exchanger 3, where it exchanges heat with the heating liquid inside the heat exchanger 3. The heat-exchanged thermal storage fresh water 2011 then returns to the inside of the open thermal storage water tank 2 through the lower H-shaped water distributor 203, and then is heated again by the heating element 2010. Just perform such cyclic operation.

[0038] A total of two H-shaped water distributors 203 are installed on the upper and lower sides inside the open thermal storage water tank 2. The bottom of the upper H-shaped water distributor 203 is evenly provided with water suction heads, and the bottom of the lower H-shaped water distributor 203 is evenly provided with water outlet heads.

[0039] An outlet pipe fitting 204 is connected to the upper H-shaped water distributor 203, and an inlet pipe fitting 2013 is connected to the lower H-shaped water distributor 203. Both the inlet pipe fitting 2013 and the outlet pipe fitting 204 penetrate through the right side wall of the open thermal storage water tank 2. The right end of the outlet pipe fitting 204 is connected to the suction port of the circulation water pump 4 through a water pipe, and the right end of the inlet pipe fitting 2013 is connected to the front end water outlet of the heat exchanger 3 through a water pipe. The upper H-shaped water distributor 203 is located 300 MM below the junction of the paraffin layer 2012 and the thermal storage fresh water 2011 and is used to suck out the thermal storage fresh water 2011.

[0040] An overflow pipe 205 is fixedly installed at the upper left part of the open thermal storage water tank 2, and the overflow pipe 205 penetrates through the left side wall of the open thermal storage water tank 2. The lower end of the overflow pipe 205 extends downward into the thermal storage fresh water 2011, and the lower end of the overflow pipe 205 is 500 MM lower than the interface between the paraffin layer 2012 and the thermal storage fresh water 2011. Through the setting of the overflow pipe 205, paraffin can be prevented from flowing out during overflow.

[0041] Three temperature sensors 209 are installed on the right inner side of the open thermal storage water tank 2, and a heating element 2010 is installed at the lower end inside the open thermal storage water tank 2 for heating the thermal storage fresh water 2011.

[0042] Example 2, based on Example 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, a water replenishing pipe 206 is provided at the lower left side of the open-type hot water storage tank 2, and a water replenishing solenoid valve 207 is installed on the water replenishing pipe 206. The left end of the water replenishing pipe 206 is connected to a water replenishing tank, and the position of the water replenishing tank is higher than that of the open-type hot water storage tank 2. A water level electrode 208 is installed on the right inner side of the open-type hot water storage tank 2, and the water level electrode 208 is located below the paraffin layer 2012. The sound and light alarm 202, the water replenishing solenoid valve 207, the water level electrode 208, the temperature sensor 209, the heating element 2010, and the circulation pump 4 are all electrically connected to the control box 201. The water level of the heat storage fresh water 2011 inside the open-type hot water storage tank 2 is detected in real time through the water level electrode 208. When the water level of the heat storage fresh water 2011 inside the open-type hot water storage tank 2 is lower than the preset value, the control box 201 opens the water replenishing solenoid valve 207 and also starts the sound and light alarm 202. After the water replenishing solenoid valve 207 is opened, the heat storage fresh water 2011 inside the water replenishing tank will enter the open-type hot water storage tank 2 to realize the automatic water replenishing operation. After the sound and light alarm 202 is started, it can bring an effective warning effect to the staff.
