There is something terribly wrong with the control of LWT. Where do the peaks come from?
I think statements of this kind should be considered in the right context, because it may mislead people into thinking that there is something terrib...
I' d like to see a graph of that. It doesn't make sense to me, unless he means that at low temps, the pump runs at constant speed.
I am really surprised that the IAT is steady, whereas LWT is fluctuating a lot. How can this be ?
Is the WC "tweaked" ?. Because that would explain this behavior.
By what rule would flow be modulated ? Is it not the primary circuit flow ?
I am not sure the chart is accurate. Because how is it that T1S changes when OAT is constant (just before 21.00) ?
I think the flow rate is meant to be constant. In my machine is set at 0.36 m3/h. But I am not sure of this. On the other hand, why shouldn't it be ? ...
This is to be expected, isn't it?
I don't think I am. The order is: 1. The system orders a defrost cycle. 2. The OAT sensor sends erroneous measurement (warmer). 3. The set LWT (...
Ha, ha true, but I am not saying it isn't any good, I am saying it is not that good. A simple argument is that it is open loop. And to answer your "an...
@benson T1S is actually the LWT defined by the WC. However, I wouldn't describe the behavior as "overshooting", but rather "oscillating" around the se...
