Description
Summary:This report simulates Purmo type C22 and C33 radiators with both standard calculation and heat transfer method with help of Matlab/Simulink. Simulation results are presented to describe the radiators’ thermal performances with different simulation strategies. The deviations between two different calculation methods are identified and the heat transfer radiator model can be improved with more investigations regarding thermal dynamics and controlling strategy. Under simulation scenarios of simple room model with a PID controller, type C33 has shorter response time and faster stabilization of room temperature; and it has lower outflow temperature, which implies higher energy efficiency.
