  1. Advanced Research Technology, Green Bay, WI (United States)

Design requirements and actual modes of operation for an innovative combined space-heating and domestic hot water control system in consumer heating substations are presented along with recommendations for system application in district heating. The system is completely controllable, and its mode of operation can be predicted by computer simulation. The control system benefits district heating by minimizing the first cost and operating costs and by improving the reliability of the district heating heat supply to the consumers. In addition, the system allows for better flow rate uniformity in the utility network piping system.
