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-modified1 . 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.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
