System for the generation of heat, hot water and convertible energy has gas/air burner, Stirling engine and coupled linear generator in a thermal generation assembly

摘要

The water heating coil (30) is heated by a burner (22) to feed a hot water tank (38) through a coil (44). A thermo- electric converter (16) in the form of a Stirling engine (18) and coupled linear generator (20) provides electrical energy for various appliances. Domestic hot water is drawn off (42) from the tank and is replenished from a cold water tank (48). Domestic heating water is provided (HVL) and returned (HRL) and pumped (32) through the coil (30).
