Abstract

Lower heating demands for space heating impose new requirements for the operation of radiators. Contemporary type of new building construction, retrofitted buildings with smaller heat losses and higher requirements for energy efficiency and thermal comfort, demand an improved radiator design and regulation of heat output. As heating systems mostly operate at part loads, it is important to adopt the heat output as quickly as possible to the variable conditions.
