9.3 Limitations with Water-Glycol Mixtures
There is little available data on the specific heat capacity (K factor) for water glycol mixes and there
is no practical method of determining the percentage of glycol in a system or the type of glycol in
use. The flow calculations are based on a Water/Ethylene glycol mix of 30%.
In practical terms the results should not be considered more than an approximation as:
The fluid speed of sound can vary between 1480ms and 1578ms
No temperature compensation curve is available for water/glycol mixes,
The percentage of Glycol can vary the specific heat capacity from 1.00 to 1.6 J/M3 * K
The type of glycol added can change the specific heat capacity and fluid speed of sound
considerably.
The Factory enabled user set-up of the application relies on the installer to set the correct operating
parameters, a considerable variation in results can be obtained from incorrectly set-up units.
