@heacol Thanks, mate.
@robs Thanks for this. The statement about 8C was not mine. It came from a Brendon quote. The flow rate shown is the current one. Are you saying that...
@heacol I am sorry that this provoked such a reaction. Misinformation applies to me as well so I did warn you. I never made any definitive statements...
@jamespa @heacol Beware disinformation on this forum. I took some time out to verify the statement made about all the top performing heat pumps on...
@jamespa For the sake of clarity, in my previous response I ignored the house heat requirement at 15C OAT for a 10kW load at design temperature. The ...
@jamespa So, it seems that we have an empirical answer to your question rather than an engineering one. Therefore, from this input and context, I ded...
@jamespa You should best address this question to Brendon. I would also be keen for more clarification as it is fairly fundamental. I am not an insta...
@jamespa For a fixed pump in question on open loop, dT could be <2C at 15C. Below is another view on the topic with which I concur.
@jamespa Let me throw my hat into the ring on this one. If one accepts that a delta-T of 5C is required for correct operation of a heat pump, then he...
@jamespa @RobS. You are missing the point here. Part L states that EVERY room should have a thermostat to control the heat output. Practically then, i...
@RobS Don’t understand the logic here. If a thermostat shuts off a zone, its flow stops therefore the overall flow is reduced i.e. flow varies with st...
@ubert767 You may find this useful as well.
