  • Heat generation system
    Patent number: 7606475
    Abstract: A system is disclosed for generating heat for the purpose of radiating such heat into a separate entity such as a residential housing structure or a pavement surface. The system includes a steel conduit positioned proximate the separate entity to be heated. An annular copper conductor element in the form of a continuous loop is disposed within the interior of the steel conduit to form a substantially contiguous contact surface between the conductor element and the interior surface of the conduit. A power supply member provides an alternating current of approximately 240-480 V, and a transformer is electrically connected to the power supply member for receiving this alternating current.
