Study of factors affecting reliability and efficiency of heat supply system

Abstract

Abstract Reliable and uninterrupted supply of heat to consumers is the most important task of the heating system. Due to the connection to the heat network of a large number of dissimilar consumers, the heat supply system operates year-round. Damage to heat networks can lead to disconnection of consumers, disruption of internal engineering systems, and reduction of their operation parameters, which can be dangerous, especially during the heating period at low outdoor temperatures. To ensure the reliability and efficiency of the heat supply system, it is necessary to fulfill all the requirements of the technical operation rules, conduct timely rounds and inspections and identify damage to the heating network at an early stage. It is also necessary to identify factors affecting the reliability and, consequently, the efficiency of the heating system, identifying “risk zones” by the magnitude of damage, based on the results of the calculation. As well as the development of measures to identify and prevent failures in the heating system.
