ABSTRACT:
Water heating methods and apparatus feed a combustible mixture of gas and air to an axial inlet of a cylindrical radiant surface burner and conduct water to be heated through a heat exchanger encompassing that cylindrical radiant surface burner as a cylindrical structure having first passages for combustion gases therethrough substantially radially of the cylindrical radiant surface burner and the heat exchanger. Methods and apparatus for changing the temperature in a mass of liquid circulate that mass of liquid by pumping the liquid in a path extending from that mass of liquid back to that mass of liquid, provide a bypass for part of the pumped liquid from a downstream portion of the path to an upstream portion of that path, provide and maintain a constant liquid flow for the part of the pumped liquid in the bypass, change the temperature of the part of the pumped liquid at the constant liquid flow in the bypass, and change the temperature in the mass by mixing at the upstream portion the part of the pumped liquid of changed temperature from the bypass with liquid pumped in the path.
