PURIFIED LIQUID STORAGE RECEPTACLE AND A HEAT TRANSFER ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF HEAT TRANSFER

摘要

A heat transfer apparatus and method of regulating temperature in a liquid storage receptacle wherein heat is transferred relative to the storage receptacle through an enclosed passageway held at a preselect pressure and containing a vaporizable and condensible fluid medium to uniformly and adiabatically transfer heat to an extended conductive surface to bring the conductive surface into isothermic condition and into cooperative relation with a flow-through heat exchanger. The heat transfer apparatus and method require a minimum of parts and a minimum of steps and at the same time are straight forward and efficient in manufacture and assembly with an optimum of energy usage during operations.
