What is solar heating

Sep 28, 2022Leave a message

Solar heating: refers to converting the scattered solar energy into hot water for convenient use through heat collectors (such as flat-panel solar collectors, vacuum solar tubes, solar heat pipes, etc.) The heating end (for example: floor heating system, radiator system, etc.) provides room heating system, we call it the solar heating system, or solar heating for short.

 

  Precautions

 

1. The design of the heat collection area depends on considering the average heat required by the building in the whole winter. The solar heat collection equipment is large and the cost is high, which wastes equipment and funds. So configuring the solar area is very important. 2. Considering the heat reserve, solar energy is very temporal, sufficient during the day and zero at night, which is completely opposite to the process of heating we need. However, since the building has thermal inertia, with certain heat storage equipment, we are fully capable of artificially changing and adjusting the time difference generated by thermal inertia to meet our needs! Thermal inertia is very important in the design process of solar heating!

 

3. The combination of solar heating and floor heating can achieve the most energy-saving heating system!

 

  Advantage

 

1. Solar heating is an environmental protection project. It differs from ordinary heating methods in that the heat source is different, that is, ordinary heating uses coal, electricity, oil, gas, etc., while solar heating uses pollution-free and renewable solar energy.

 

2. The economic benefits of solar heating are significant. Solar heating generally can recover the investment cost in 3-5 years, and its service life is generally about 20 years, so its economic benefits are also very significant.

 

3. Energy saving and emission reduction. Because solar heating is clean and safe, there will be no danger of carbon dioxide poisoning in traditional coal-fired heating furnaces, and accidents such as burns will not occur. Suitable for large buildings, such as schools, offices, factories, breeding greenhouses, etc. Installing solar heating projects can also provide free hot water for bathing, which is an energy-saving and emission-reduction project that serves multiple purposes.
