The hot water storage tank is made of high-temperature-resistant and pressure-resistant materials and is internally provided with a heat preservation layer to reduce heat loss.
[0003] However, during long-term storage, scale will gradually accumulate in the current hot water storage tank, especially on the inner wall of the tank. The higher the water temperature, the faster the mineral precipitation, and the more obvious the scale formation. When a large amount of scale accumulates, the poor thermal conductivity of the scale will hinder heat transfer, resulting in a decrease in heating efficiency and an increase in energy consumption. In addition, scale accumulation can cause the inner wall of the tank or the heating element to overheat, and even cause equipment failure or damage. The current hot water storage tank is difficult to clean, and the scale in the tank body is usually removed by adding a scale remover. However, this method takes a long time and is difficult to remove the scale on the inner wall of the tank body, so it needs to be improved and optimized. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
