THERMODYNAMIC SOLAR BLOCK

Operation
ENERGIE Thermodynamic Solar Blocks ULTRA are items of equipment intended for climatization:
atmosphere, industrial applications etc.
The thermodynamic panel is placed on the exterior and it ensures the capturing of energy as regards:
•
Direct and diffuse radiation;
•
Outside air by natural convection;
•
Wind effect (almost always to be found);
•
Rainwater
The temperature difference brought about by the previous factors ensures that the fluid will change
to vapour state inside the panel.
The compressor aspirates the refrigerant fluid (vapour) of the panel, raising the pressure and
temperature thereof, which is transmitted to the water circuit by way of a heat exchanger.
The heat exchanger is located inside the thermodynamic group (Solar Block), providing heat to the
water.
When the refrigerant fluid reaches the expansion valve it is at its liquid phase and the load loss owing
to strangulation reduces the pressure and the fluid is re-prepared for entry into the panels.

Components
The Thermodynamic Group is made up of two components:
a)
Thermodynamic Group;
b)
Thermodynamic solar panels
The solar panel is a plate made of twin-channel pressed aluminium with post-pressing anodic oxidation.
The panel has the dimensions 2000 mm x 800 mm x 20 mm and it has a fluid flow entry and exit in a
copper-alu
minium tube with an interior diameter of ¼’’
