Thermal Performance Experiment Research of One New Floor Heating System

Abstract

In this paper, thermal performance of one new type of floor heating system was studied. The new floor heating system is made of hard-PVC, which different from the others used before is that it is both the water flow channel and the floor of the room. So¿heat resistance of the heating floor is lower. Thermal performance of floor heating system was tested in a test room. Experiment Results show that the supplying water temperature of the floor heating system is only 30¿, which is lower than that of other systems. The new type heating floor is energy saving equipment, which can use low temperature heat sources and decrease energy consumption of the heating system.
