Wanderport Files Patent Application Raising the Bar for Innovation and Performance Within the Water Heater Industry

Wanderport Corp. (PINKSHEETS: WDRP) announced today that its
prudent analysis, testing and re-evaluation has spawned a new
innovative patent for the microwave energy tank-less water heater
which it feels will set the bar for performance and innovation
standards in the industry.
The new patent application comprises a unique heat exchanger
using radio frequency and particularly microwaves as an energy
source. We believe that this new method will revolutionize the
water heater industry and provide Wanderport's shareholders with
additional value as this enormous breakthrough will enhance the
microwave water heater's efficiency and provide an easier method to
manufacture a more compact unit. This new Patent now provides a
radio frequency energy exchanger that makes efficient use of
microwave energy and its conversion into heat within a flowing
liquid and is compact so that it may accommodate residential,
commercial, and industrial heating applications.
Through his recent analysis, Mr. Robert Simoneau, Wanderport's
Technical Advisor and product inventor, has discovered that
conventional microwave heat exchangers suffer from reduced
efficiency due, in part, to the irregular wave pattern emitted from
the magnetron resulting in inefficient energy transfer or coupling.
Mr. Simoneau has also discovered that previous attempts at
addressing these inefficiencies inevitably resulted in a relatively
large heat exchanger design that incorporated one or a series of
fluid conductive tubes within a cavity or resonant chamber.
Instead, the new patent comprises a system and method for microwave
energy transfer that uses a dimensionally defined chamber
calculated to offer efficient energy transfer through the use of
both molecular friction of the flowing medium and thermal transfer
from the adjacent magnetrons into the volume of the liquid. This
new heat exchanger makes use of a defined and optimized chamber
that enables for an efficient energy transfer in the form of heat
into a continuously flowing liquid medium. Significantly, the
Invention eliminates the use of microwave-transparent tubing in
favor of a combined waveguide and energy exchange chamber.
The new energy exchanger consists of a dimensionally optimized
water-tight chamber whose determining characteristics are in part
that its interior walls are constructed of non-conductive and/or
rust resistant materials capable of withstanding thermal stress
while the chamber incorporates at least one inlet and one outlet.
Said chamber's outer body is constructed of materials that will
prevent the permeation of radio waves and its walls are constructed
to reduce the formation of standing waves. An additional
improvement is supplied by allowing for an efficient thermal
coupling between the magnetron(s) and the exterior housing of the
exchanger. The energy exchanger is designed for the purpose of
heating water and continued analysis unexpectedly produced pleasing
results. The energy exchanger was not only at least equal in
efficiency to conventional inline serpentine or helical microwave
heat exchangers but also significantly smaller in size making it
capable of operating solely or in tandem with additional similar
energy exchangers within single or multiple housings.
Advantageously, the energy exchanger may also operate in tandem
with dissimilar energy exchangers such as solar capture arrays or
gas operated units thereby paving the way for a host of other
hybrid water heating applications.
"The use of microwaves to heat water is well known. Building a
commercially desirable unit is almost as elusive as the search for
the Holy Grail. Consumers are not only demanding (with respect to
performance) but, in today's challenging environment, the
perception of value is ever more important. I am positively
delighted with this innovative and unique approach as it addresses
both of these issues in a positive and significant way," said Mr.
Richard Martel, President and CEO of Wanderport Corporation.
"I think we've dramatically advanced product development with
this improvement, as it is a game-changer," said Mr. Robert
Simoneau, Wanderport's Technical Advisor and Product Licensor.
"We've demonstrated success in efficient energy transfer not only
from the magnetron but also through the water cooled array and,
most recently, the use of the actual chamber as part of the heat
sink for the magnetrons. We have simultaneously taken into account
some of the previously limiting form factor requirements and made
great strides at improving upon their embodiment. What I find to be
particularly exciting is how this will likely play out as we move
to continue to cost-engineer the product," continued Mr. Robert
Simoneau. This new patent application demonstrates Wanderport's
continued unwavering commitment, as we draw near to completion of a
pre-launch microwave energy tankless water heater unit capable of
successfully undergoing the certification process, with the purpose
of significantly outperforming existing products within this
multi-billion dollar industry.
