Abstract The consumption and temperature of hot water produced by boiler units are calculated using such a quantity as the consumption of the consumed network water. The formulas represent functional dependencies connecting the obtained values not only with the consumption of heating water, but also with the consumption of hot water supplied for recirculation, for own needs and for the needs of the fuel economy. They take into account the losses of network and hot water. The formulas are obtained as a result of the joint solution of the equation for the total consumption of hot water and the equation for its partial costs.

Hot Water Supply

The combined method of generating electric and heat energy at CHP plants has been and remains the most effective way of fuel saving both in housing and communal services and in industry. In Russia, historically, a qualitative method of regulation has been adopted, which consists in changing the temperature of the fluid depending on the change in the temperature of the outside air at a constant flow rate of the fluid. An analysis of the heat supply schemes of a number of Russian cities revealed that central quality regulation at heat sources has practically ceased everywhere. In modern methods of calculating the qualitative and quantitative regulation, the main load is heating, and the load of hot water is taken into account only by increasing the flow rate of network water and the variable modes of joint operation of heating and hot water systems are not calculated. Thus, at present, there are no methods for calculating the qualitative and quantitative regulation, allowing to fully taking into account the effect of the load of hot water on the operation of heating systems. Therefore, in modern conditions, the previously developed methods and technological methods of controlling the combined heat load are characterized by a decrease in efficiency, and, accordingly, the problem of their optimization arises. For different temperatures of outdoor air, the calculation of variable operating modes of the heat supply system was carried out, which showed that the existing schedules of qualitative and quantitative regulation cannot provide a comfortable temperature condition of the premises. Under the conditions of a connected supply of heat, simply adding up the flows of network water for heating and hot water supply fails to achieve optimal thermal conditions for the premises. Therefore, further improvement of the technology of the central qualitative and quantitative regulation of the heat load taking into account hot water supply is required.

A modification to the f-Chart method has been developed to predict monthly and annual performance of thermosyphon solar domestic hot water systems. Stratification in the storage tank is accounted for through use of a modified collector loss coefficient. The varying flow rate throughout the day and year in a thermosyphon system is accounted for through use of a fixed monthly “equivalent average” flow rate. The “equivalent average” flow rate is that which balances the thermosyphon buoyancy driving force with the frictional losses in the flow circuit on a monthly average basis. Comparison between the annual solar fraction predited by the modified design method and TRNSYS simulations for a wide range of thermosyphon systems shows an RMS error of 2.6 percent.

Hot Water Supply

The thermal performance of a Thermosyphon Domestic Solar Water Heater (DSWH) with a vertical storage tank is investigated experimentally. The system is installed on a roof - top of a four person family house and its thermal characteristics is evaluated by means of carefully measuring the temperature distribution of water inside the storage tank, solar collector flow rate and its inlet and outlet temperatures as well as load/consumption outlet and inlet temperatures and the corresponding water flow rate under a realistic operating conditions. The measurements are conducted every hour starting from morning until late night on a daily basis and continued for about 120 days during August until November 2004. It is seen that thermal stratification is well established inside the tank from 11 AM until 10 PM especially during August to September enabling the tank to provide the necessary amount of hot water at an acceptable temperature. However, thermal stratification is observed to start degrading from mid-night until morning when there is no hot water supply from the collector and due to the diffusion of heat from the top hot water layers to the bottom cold region and conduction through tank’s wall. The thermal behavior of the storage tank is also assessed based on both energy and exergy analysis and its first and second law efficiencies are calculated. It is observed that the storage tank under study has an average first law efficiency of 47.8% and is able to supply the required amount of hot water at a proper temperature. The average second law efficiency of the storage tank is observed to be 28.7% and, although is less than its first low efficiency, but is high enough to ensure that the quality of the hot water supply is well preserved. The proper level of second law efficiency is due to the preservation of the thermal stratification inside the storage tank, leading to supply of hot water at highest possible temperature and hence highest possible energy potential. Experiments are also done for no-load conditions when the storage tank only interacts with the collector, without hot water withdrawal from the tank. It is seen that for no-load condition, thermal stratification continuously develops from morning until around 16 PM after which no noticeable changes in the temperature distribution inside the tank is observed.

In the members states of the European Union, portion of buildings in the total consumption of energy represents 40%, and their portion in CO2 emissions fluctuates around 35%. The European Union is trying to protect the environment by reducing energy demand and releasing CO2 emissions into the air. Energy performance is the quantity of energy, which is necessary for heating and domestic hot water production, for cooling and ventilation and for lighting. Based on results of energy performance, individual buildings are classified into energy classes A to G. A global indicator (primary energy) is the decisive factor for final evaluation of the building. The new building must meet minimum requirements for energy performance, i.e. it must be classified to energy class A1 since 2016, and to energy class A0 since 2020. The paper analyses effect of the use of different resources of heat in a family house designed according to requirements valid since 2020, and its subsequent classification into an energy class.

Powder Properties

Abstract Three different types of polyethylene powders were flame sprayed onto pre-heated steel substrate previously coated by electrostatic spray system with a thin epoxy primer layer. Properties of the polyethylene (PE) powders, including powder density, particle size and melt flow rate (MFR) were measured in order to study their influence on the mechanical properties of the coating. The spray experiments started with optimization of spraying parameters. The main variables were pre-heating temperature of the substrate, temperature increase during spraying (influenced by the spraying distance), and thickness of the PE coatings. The laboratory tests performed for the coatings were coating characterization by microscopy and mechanical testing. Porosity and thickness of the coatings were determined by optical and stereo microscopy studies from polished cross-sectional samples. Hardness, impact strength, peel strength, and adhesive strength of the coatings were also investigated. Also some hot water sinking and heat cycling tests were performed. As a result from the present studies it can be concluded that powder properties have great influence on the mechanical properties of the final coating.

The aim of this study was to map the parameters that have the greatest impact on the environmental impact of heating systems usually used in Nordic single-family dwellings. The study focused on mapping the technical requirements for efficient operation of heating systems in a broader context. The results suggest that the ability of a heating system to be operated with a low-temperature water supply depends to a large extent on the heating demand of a building. It was shown that an increase in the water flow rate in hydronic circuits would significantly increase the thermal efficiency from analyzed heating systems. This increase would not increase the pumping power need, nor would it create noise problems in distribution network if the distribution pipes and thermostatic valves were properly selected. However, this increase in water flow rate improved the efficiency of considered closed-loop heat pump. It was further shown that the efficiency of the heat pump could be additionally improved by halving the energy needs for the domestic hot-water and circulators. The main conclusion from this study is that exergy usage, CO2 emission and thereby environmental impact are significantly lower for heating systems that are operated with small temperature drops.
