A SIZING METHOD FOR HYDRONIC TEMPERED CONCRETE AND UNDERFLOOR HEATING

Abstract

Heating systems: tempered concrete and underfloor heating are beginning to be taken more and more to our space, as buildings with an appropriate degree of envelope insulation are being built. Designers generally used for dimensioning of such systems, computer programs that make available material suppliers system. But since buildings vary greatly in terms of the degree of thermal insulation envelop, thermal inertia of the building floor area spaces against the calculated heat load, etc., the use in any situation of the same program calculation makes that in many cases sizing of such systems should not be made with appropriate accuracy. This material presents a method of sizing calculation more accurately, of such systems.
