12.3 Heating curve
With both types of weather-compensated flow temperature control (with / without room
temperature influence), the heating curve ensures the assignment of the flow tempera-
ture setpoint to the outside temperature. Its slope is to be set on operating line 5.

The heating curve has a fixed tilting point at an outside temperature of 22 °C and a flow
temperature of 20 °C. It can be set around this tilting point in the range from 2.5 to 40 in
increments of 0.5.
Each heating curve has a substitute line which intersects the tilting point and ”its” heat-
ing curve at an outside temperature of 0 °C. Its slope is set on the controller and is
calculated as follows:

The use of a substitute line is required because the heating curve is slightly deflected.
This is necessary to compensate for the non-linear radiation characteristics of the dif-
ferent types of radiators.
