A polyvalent heating system for a passive house based on renewable energy sources
The article describes the concept of creating a polyvalent heating system for a passive house situated on the premises of the Institute of Technical Thermal Physics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. A brief analysis of common heating systems used in the residential sector, and public and industrial buildings is conducted. The authors describe the main stages of developing the principal hydraulic circuit of a polyvalent heating system for a passive house from renewable energy sources. The basic modes of operation depending on the period of year, the ambient temperature and technological features are listed. The advisability of using the heat pump technology in supplying heat to energy-efficient and passive houses is demonstrated.
