Determination of the Temperature Graph of Heat Supply With Minimal Heat Losses

Abstract

Abstract Heat losses by pipelines of heat supply systems are calculated for the average temperature of the heat carrier per year or for the heating period for the conditions of a qualitative method of regulating the heat load. The presence of cuts of the temperature graph, the use of other methods of central regulation, are not reflected in the regulatory documents and require special research, which determines the relevance of the work. Heat losses through thermal insulation structures of pipelines have been determined for various graphs of central regulation. Heat losses were determined for each external temperature, taking into account its duration. It is shown that the average linear annual heat losses for most of the graphs correspond to a lower external temperature than the average external temperature for the heating period. Therefore, the calculation must be performed for a higher temperature of the heat carrier than is accepted according to regulatory documents.
