Pressure Independent Valves offer system stability, improved efficiency and overall versatility that can only be achieved in a dynamically balanced hydronic system. During this webinar you will learn how partial loads can wreak havoc on statically balanced systems and how static balancing devices under perform the majority of the time. See how pressure independent valves can keep your system balanced at all loads and flow, eliminate overflows, and achieve perfect valve authority.
Join us on Thursday, September 15th at 11:00AM PDT / 2:00PM EDT as Dick Hubbell, Regional Application Consultant for Belimo America discusses why design and modeling data doesn't always match a building’s actual performance.
Energy and performance models make a few faulty assumptions about hydronic performance. By understanding these assumptions, we can have a better view of actual performance. This presentation will examine the performance impact of improper valve sizing, unstable system pressures and balancing device selection. We will also examine the physical effects of valve authority and coil degradation in hydronic systems.
In this session we will discuss:
-
Design and Modeling Assumptions
-
Hydronic Heat Transfer at the Coil
-
Hydronic Performance Problems
-
Valve Sizing
-
Static vs. Dynamic Balancing
-
Coil Performance
-
Optimize Potential Performance Solutions
