Systems and methods for providing hot water to a commercial dishwasher are provided. A first heat exchanger is provided in a first enclosure, and is used to heat water from a cold water source. The heated water is provided to the commercial dishwasher for use. A second heat exchanger is provided in a second enclosure, and is used to collect waste heat from the wastewater of the commercial dishwasher. A refrigerant coil loop passes through the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger, and allows for the use of the waste heat. The first heat exchanger is a condenser provided within a condenser chamber, the condenser connected to a compressor. The second heat exchanger is an evaporator within an evaporator chamber, the evaporator connected to an expansion valve.

System and method for the capture and use of heat from the wastewater of commercial dishwashers

Systems and methods are disclosed for exchanging thermal energy between a drain liquid and a source liquid for heating or cooling of the source liquid. One method for heating a source liquid may involve transferring heat from a drain liquid using a heat pump. A system may include a refrigerant, a source liquid and a drain liquid, two or more heat exchangers that facilitate an exchange of thermal energy, and a means for transporting the refrigerant.

Hybrid heat pump water heater

A liquid heating system may comprise a metallic container and a refillable non-corrosive hollow porous tube, which may be coupled to the metallic container. The refillable non-corrosive hollow porous tube may include at least one open end and anodic material may be filled or refilled into the refillable non-corrosive hollow porous tube through the at least one open end. The anodic material is corroded by the oxidation process at a substantially faster rate compared to the metallic container. The anodic material is refilled into the refillable non-corrosive hollow porous tube through the at least one open end without removing the refillable non-corrosive hollow porous tube from the metallic container or disturbing the position of the refillable non-corrosive hollow porous tube.

Refillable anode

A heat pump liquid heater (HPLH) system coupled to an array of photovoltaic cells that operate at enhanced efficiency is disclosed. The HPLH system comprises a panel or a box structure coupled to the HPLH. The box structure supports an array of photovoltaic cells and a circulation mechanism. The HPLH generates a coolant as a by-product using ambient air and electric power. The coolant that is circulated around the photovoltaic cells may extract the heat generated by the photovoltaic cells and the temperature of the photovoltaic cells may decrease to a specific level or maintained within an allowable temperature range. The reduction in temperature causes the photovoltaic cells to operate with enhanced efficiency and may generate more electric power. The size of the panel or the number of photovoltaic cells required to generate a required power may be reduced that reduces the cost of the HPLH system.

Efficient photovoltaic (PV) cell based heat pump liquid heater

A heat pump liquid heater for heating a liquid comprising: a heat pump; a liquid tank in heat communication with the heat pump, wherein the liquid tank comprises the liquid; and at least one metal condenser tube immersed into the liquid, wherein the metal condenser tube forms at least one coil. The metal condenser tube has a flattened double-tube configuration and a cross-section defined by concentric ovals such that at least a portion of the concentric ovals is in contact with one another thereby minimizing space between the flattened double-tubes. The heat pump comprises a tube-in-tube heat exchanger and a compressor, wherein the tube-in-tube heat exchanger recovers heat from refrigerant returning from the liquid tank and transfers the recovered heat to refrigerant going to the compressor thereby superheating the refrigerant.
