@jamespa There is no consensus as manufacturers will not supply their test data, however, it is very much based on the design of the refrigerant circu...
@jamespa, please do not make assumptions when you admit that you do not understand the topic. There are reasons for the 5 Deg Delta T but they are exc...
@sunandair a red herring, cycling is not the problen some make it out to be.
@sunandair That is what I would expect from a system with adiquate volume. The panasonic prevents the flow temperature dropping below 25 Deg C which i...
@sunandair You are correct, the volumisor on the flow will buffer the cold shock comming from the heat pump going to the radiators and the asociated d...
@robl Your analysis is correct, for heating the most efficient Delta T across the condensor is in fact 5 Deg C and most manufacturers will reccomend t...
@jamespa Install one of these on the main incommer.
@adamk Yes you can to that. I never use old radiators. If the customer insiste, I walk away, it is not worth it.
@jamespa There are many hundreds of other variables in the vapour compression circuit, miss one and the calculations are irrelivant. Every time I thnk...
It is just thermodynamics, the higher you move the flow temperature the more it will cost to run, existing radiators may need a higher flow temperatur...
All heat pumps, using the same gas, will have a verry simmalr perfomance, you cammot beat the rules of thermodynamics, the biggest effect on heat pump...
Hi @dreg1 11, Kw or 10.6 is neither here nor there, it is considered to supply 100% of the load and will with ease, if your system is controlled prop...
