Abstract: A high temperature fluid generator is configured to heat a fluid (e.g. water; thermal oil or the like) to a high temperature (e.g. greater than 250 degrees Fahrenheit or 120 degrees Celsius) using a fuel-burning furnace. The generator generally comprises a furnace module, wherein fuel is burned, and a convection module where the combustion gases are put in contact with a series of fluid-bearing convection tubes. The furnace module comprises a series of fluidly interconnected headers, some of which are also fluidly connected to the convection tubes in the convection modules. The various headers contribute to the overall structure of the generator. The convection tubes are arranged into at least two bundles which are movably mounted in the convection module of the generator such to be movable in and out of the convection module for inspection, cleaning, maintenance and/or repair.

Abstract: A boiler system and methods for heating a fluid are disclosed, in particular for heating water for producing steam. The boiler comprises an economizer module integrated on the top of a furnace, and is in communication with the furnace to receive heat and/or hot combustion gases therefrom. The economizer comprises tubes receiving the fluid, such as feedwater, to be pre-heated and providing it to the furnace comprising a combustion chamber producing heat and hot combustion gases. The fluid is pre-heated by circulating first through the pre-heating tube assembly of the economizer module before entering the furnace module where the fluid is further heated by the combustion chamber. Since the economizer is located on the furnace module, the boiler does not have a large footprint compared to a regular boiler system without an economizer. Due to the total integration of the economizer with the furnace, the boiler system has improved energy efficiency.

Abstract: A reflecting lower leg protector is designed to be releasably attachable to the lower leg of a user with ease. Also, the proposed reflecting lower leg protector is provided with highly reflective material to enhance the visibility of the wearer and provide additional protection in situations where many users are working closely together in order to avoid any injury or to simply enhance visibility under varying degrees of illumination for any reason.
