<p>A temperature sensitive relief valve for a reservoir of a hot fluid including a cold fluid inlet in communication with a cold fluid outlet via a main cold fluid feed arrangement; a fluid mixing chamber having an outlet; a hot fluid inlet adapted for attachment to the reservoir of hot fluid and in communication with the fluid mixing chamber; a secondary cold fluid feed arrangement in communication with the fluid mixing chamber; and a valve arrangement responsive to the temperature of the hot fluid in the reservoir so that, when the temperature of the hot fluid is below a pre-determined value, the valve arrangement is in a first configuration which prevents hot fluid and cold fluid from entering the fluid mixing chamber and, when the temperature of the hot fluid exceeds the pre-determined value, the valve arrangement adopts a second configuration which allows hot fluid and cold fluid to enter the fluid mixing chamber, thereafter to flow out of the outlet of the fluid mixing chamber as a mixed fluid having a temperature less than the temperature of the hot fluid.</p> |
