Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and system of a portable heat exchanger system. The method includes inserting a heat exchanger in a thermal body such as a campfire or an insulated cooler containing ice. In another embodiments, the heat exchanger system is configured to supply thermally treated to a portable enclosure. In further embodiments, the heat exchanger system is conjoined with a heating element wherein heat is supplied for various tools.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method of constructing a portable heat exchanger system, comprising:
 connecting a first end of a first hose to an output port of an air pump;   connecting an intake port of a heat exchanger to a second end of the first hose;   connecting an exhaust port of the heat exchanger to a first end of a second hose;   inserting an exchange chamber of the heat exchanger in a thermal body, wherein heat transfers between the thermal body and the heat exchanger and thereby transferring heat between air within the heat exchanger and the thermal body; and   activating the air pump to impel air into the heat exchanger via the first hose, subsequently ejecting air within the heat exchanger out a second end of the second hose via the second hose based on the impelled air, thereby transferring heat between the impelled air and the thermal body.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 positioning an air pump within a portable enclosure;   positioning the first hose through a first port hole of the portable enclosure;   positioning the second hose through a second port hole of the portable enclosure; and   positioning the second end of the second hose within the portable enclosure.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the air pump is driven by a portable power supply. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 mixing air of the portable enclosure with the ejected air from the heat exchanger;   impelling the mixed air of the portable enclosure into the heat exchanger for recycling.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the thermal body is a heat source. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the thermal body is a cold source. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 5 , further comprising:
 connecting the second end of the second hose to an intake port of a heating element.   
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the heating element is a cooking instrument. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 6 , further comprising:
 directing the second end of the second hose towards a user, wherein the second end of the second hose ejects air onto the user to cool the user.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the heating element is a sleeping instrument. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the heat source is fueled by a campfire. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the heat source is fueled by burning coals. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the heat source is fueled by smoldering embers. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the cold source is fueled by water-based ice. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the cold source is fueled by carbon dioxide-based ice. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the portable power supply is a set of dry cell batteries. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the portable power supply is a rechargeable battery. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first hose and the second hose comprise of a thermal resistant rubber. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first hose and the second hose comprise of a metal flex hose. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the respective connections of the first hose and the second hose form a hermetic seal using hose clamps.
