PURPOSE:To effectively use the heat of exhaust that has been conventionally wasted, by a heater wherein water is heated by utilizing highly elevated heat of exhaust that passes an exhaust tube connected to an engine. CONSTITUTION:In the case that the instant heater is applied to a large-sized truck having front wheels G and rear wheels F, F, a heat collecting pipe B for heat exchange is wound around the exhaust pipe D that is connected to the engine A to conduct exhaust from the engine A through a muffler into atmosphere and is surrounded by an heat insulator. The inlet end and outlet end of the heat collecting pipe B are connected via pipes with outlet and inlet of a hot water reservoir C respectively. Thus, the heat of the exhaust passing through the exhaust pipe D can heat the water passing through the heat collecting pipe B, and the heated water is conducted into the hot water reservoir C to be stored therein. The hot water in the reservoir C can be used for various purposes suitably. |
