3.12 Liquid Delta Heat
Measurements:
Actual volume flow is measured by the flow element (DP transmitter, Flowmeter).
Temperature of the supply and return lines are measured by the temperature
transmitters.
Calculations:
• The density, mass flow and delta heat are calculated using values of the heat carrying
liquid stored in the flow computer. (see "FLUID DATA" submenu)
Output Results:
• Display Results
Heat, Mass or Volume Flow Rate, Resettable Total, Non-Resettable Total,
Temperature1, Temperature2, Delta Temperature, Density, (optional: peak
demand, demand last hour, time/date stamp)
• Analog Output
Heat, Mass or Volume Flow Rate, Temperature1, Temperature2, Delta
Temperature, Density, Peak Demand, Demand Last Hour
• Pulse Output
Heat, Mass or Volume Total
• Relay Outputs
Heat, Mass or Volume Flow Rate, Total, Temperature Alarms, Peak Demand,
Demand Last Hour
Applications:
Calculate the energy which is extracted by a heat exchanger from heat carrying liquids.
