Pregunta 1
Pregunta
For current-generation hydronic heating systems, the controlled variable is usually indoor air temperature.
Pregunta 2
Pregunta
Most of the closed-loop control systems used for hydronic heating continually seek to eliminate any error that exists between the target value and measured value of the controlled variable.
Pregunta 3
Pregunta
Heat output from the heat emitter occurs whenever the supply water temperature equals the room air temperature.
Pregunta 4
Pregunta
The combination of near-continuous circulation and very gradual changes in water temperature tends to maximize expansion noises from the distribution piping and heat emitters.
Pregunta 5
Pregunta
Most heat source reset controllers have an adjustable minimum supply temperature.
Pregunta 6
Pregunta
Relay contacts are designated as normally open, or normally closed. In this context, the word "normally" means when the coil of the relay is not energized.
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
There are hydronic heating applications where control action is required based on the difference between two temperatures rather than the value of either temperature.
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
A multizone relay center is designed to isolate the wiring and control operation of several independent zone circulators or zone valves.
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
One purpose of mixing is to protect conventional boilers from operating at conditions that allow sustained flue gas condensation.
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
Direct injection mixing, whether accomplished using a two-way valve or variable-speed pump as the injection control device, provides the highest temperature difference between the supply and return injection risers.
