Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2016056921A1] A heat exchange system comprises at least one object (6; 6'; 7; 8) to be heated or cooled, and a heat exchanger (4). The heat exchanger is connected to the at least one object via a pipe (9)and is also connected to a heat source or a cooling source. The object comprises at least one compartment (3, 13) which is fluidly connected to the heat exchanger(4) via the pipe (9), and the compartment is configured to accommodate a gas; and there is no circulation pump between the heater and the compartment. The object may be a step in a staircase, a walkway/deck element or a cargo deck element. A plurality of objects may be fluidly interconnected. The system is particularly useful as a de-icing system on a marine vessel. Other applications are possible, both on-shore and offshore. If the heat exchanger is connected to a cooling source, the compartments will work as a cooling element, by virtue of the gas-filled, closed volume.
