RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

I fully agree with the assessment by James, home heating is a complex subject. Not because the Physics are particularly difficult, but because of the ...

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

I would suggest repeating the test with a more reliable method of measuring the temperature, since if the readings were taken at 20 second intervals, ...

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

Yes, you are correct. Whilst it is not what I believe happens in the real World, in CathodeRay's system he already has his version of AA mode varying ...

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

CathodeRay's data provides the OAT and the IAT at hourly intervals. The model needs to adjust the energy output to represent what the heat pump contro...

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

James, I think that you pointed out some time ago that it is the heat emitters, along with the heat loss, that dictate the required thermal energy out...

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

@cathoderay But what happens if the OAT reading varies from 0C to 3C deviation with heat pump loading?

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

@cathoderay I don't follow your logic. You expect to use the OAT reading to predict the Energy In to your heat pump, but this OAT reading would appe...

RE: Do setbacks save energy without compromising comfort?

@jamespa I suspect that some of the wider variation in OAT during the setback data, is probably due to the heat pump being stopped for a lengthy per...
