The paper presents the possibility of heating regulation by using of thermostatic valves in combination with thermostatic heads. Basic principles of functionality of thermostatic valves and heads are briefly explained.
From point of view of energy balance every biomass is accumulated solar radiation. It is estimated that about 30 % of biomass is used as food and feed and 20 % is production of forest. Despite fossil fuels the biomass is the most significant energy source in the world. Recently it is not issue however in case of large expansion the energy use of biomass can compete with use as food and feed.
In the Czech Republic it is assumed that the biomass will remain the most significant renewable energy source (RES) at least until the end of the next decade. Energy potential of biomass is limited by production ability of landscape on one hand and by other opportunities of use of biomass on other hand. Expansion of the other opportunities is usually not taken into account in energy predictions.
Energy balance (EROEI) of biomass plantation strongly depends on proportion of use of heavy machinery and transportation distance. EROEI of spatial energy crops is better than that of food production. Although energy yield is highest when the biomass is harvested in summer the biomass harvested next year in spring contains much less moisture and thus is suitable for direct combustion.
Compared to other RES the advantage of the biomass is easy accumulation or (if you like) possibility to harvest in desirable time, easy control of energy supply in accordance with actual demand. In most cases exploitation of equipment designed for fossil fuels is applicable. In renewable energy mix responsible position of biomass is (despite other potential) in balancing of production of sources that are fully dependent on weather – photovoltaic and wind.
The article includes the epitome of project documentation that is not available in the technical practice or that is newly elaborated but that is necessary for the reconstructions, replacements of obsolete radiators and for adaptations of heating units performance connected with the heat cladding of the construction objects.
The article deals with the influence of the floor area of house energy supplied to the hot water. Mutually compare three methods of calculation and one of them use in the calculation of delivered energy for hot water system, through which energy class is designed for local consumption - the warm water.
