Throughput capacity of a pipe at independent heating of a country house

A tremendous amount of energy is spent only on heating the living quarters, especially if it is a country mansion, for a comfortable stay. Of particular importance here is the right choice of heating equipment, but the pipe capacity is also important, since the efficiency of the entire heating system depends on this. In some cases, this plays a key role in the implementation of energy conservation.

Use of natural gas for heating

Application to support the necessary temperature regime of equipment operating on natural gas is considered the most productive and economical. In this case, the temperature balance in the room is maintained by the thermal energy that is generated during the combustion of the gas. The heat carrier in the heating system is heated to the required temperature, which is subsequently maintained at the required level by means of specially installed thermostats. During the heating of the room there is a constant circulation of the coolant in the heating system, which can be carried out both compulsorily and naturally, due to internal pressure in the pipeline. Therefore, it is very important to make an accurate calculation of the pipe capacity in order for the circulation to occur evenly, thus increasing the efficiency of heat transfer. Increase heat transfer can be due to the circulation pumps installed in the system. Modern pumps produced by the industry have a three-stage system of operation, due to which the power of the supplied liquid flow is regulated.

Far not always it is possible to be connected to the central gas pipeline. But if the delivery of the propane-butane mixture is organized in the area where you live, then it is possible to organize a full autonomous gas supply of a country house with the use of a gas-holder. Here too, the pipe capacity is very important, especially in the cold season, as, depending on the ambient temperature, the density of such a mixture can vary greatly, and additional measures will be required for the uninterrupted supply of gas from the gas tank to the heating equipment.

Diesel fuel in home heating as an alternative to gas

Not being able to equip an autonomous gas supply using a propane-butane mixture or by connecting to a gas supply system, very many, as an alternative, use diesel fuel heating. The principle of operation of the boiler, where a burner with a fan is used, is quite simple. The fuel, sprayed by the fan, mixes with the air and enters the combustion chamber, where the heat energy is generated, which is necessary for heating the room. As in the case of gas equipment, the capacity of the pipe, through which the entire heating system is connected to the boiler, is very important here. The further efficiency of room heating depends on the capacity of the pipes of the entire system.

Boilers that run on liquid fuel are made only in the floor version. If all technical requirements for their installation are met during operation, the room will not feel an unpleasant smell of diesel fuel, and the whole system will work quite efficiently.

Boilers for solid fuels

Another option of the heating system is the use of boilers operating on solid fuel. Here, as a source of energy, well-known coal, wood, peat briquettes or wood pellets are used well. When installing such a heating boiler, it is necessary to calculate correctly what will be the maximum capacity of the pipe when using forced circulation of liquid in the system.
