Thanks for all the links, but what I am looking at is a domestic hot water system. Where hot water is stored in a cylinder. The flow pipe from the cylinder would go to a tap. Due to the length of the pipe from the cylinder to the tap, it would be more than likely that a person would have to wait...
Hi,
I am a graduate mechanical engineer and would appreciate if someone could offer an explanation on the design of a DHW secondary circulation system.
I initially designed my system so that the pump on the return hot water pipe would pump towards the hot water calorifier. I have been told...
Ok I'm starting to understand. Thank you for the explanation it's clarifies things for me.
So as I'm using a building environment simulation software it would be best for the ceiling and floor voids be zoned separate to the occupied zone. I have done two test models and there is a difference of...
Thank you for the replies, yes I figured that if I looked only at the room volume and for example had a VRF Fancoil dealing with a room heat gain load and only recirculating the room air to cool (ignoring all other energy paths i.e. solar, conduction and convection through building material...
Hi all, this is my first post on the forum. I am a junior mechanical engineer and would appreciate if someone could clarify a problem I'm trying to logically think out.
I am currently using a building energy simulation software Virtual Environment from IES Ltd to run compliance check for CO2...
