Available pressure in the heating system. Hydraulic calculation of thermal networks. Water supply scheme with parallel zoning
Q[KW] = Q[Gcal]*1160; Load conversion from Gcal to KW
G[m3/h] = Q[KW]*0.86/ ΔT; where ∆T- temperature difference between supply and return.
Example:
Supply temperature from heating networks T1 - 110˚ FROM
Supply temperature from heating networks T2 - 70˚ FROM
Heating circuit consumption G = (0.45 * 1160) * 0.86 / (110-70) = 11.22 m3 / h
But for a heated circuit with a temperature graph of 95/70, the flow rate will be completely different: \u003d (0.45 * 1160) * 0.86 / (95-70) \u003d 17.95 m3 / hour.
From this we can conclude: the lower the temperature difference (the temperature difference between the supply and return), the greater the required coolant flow.
Selection of circulation pumps.
When selecting circulation pumps for heating, hot water, ventilation systems, it is necessary to know the characteristics of the system: coolant flow rate,
which must be provided and the hydraulic resistance of the system.
Coolant consumption:
G[m3/h] = Q[KW]*0.86/ ΔT; where ∆T- temperature difference between supply and return;
hydraulic the resistance of the system must be provided by specialists who calculated the system itself.
For example:
we consider the heating system with a temperature graph of 95˚ C /70˚ With and load 520 kW
G[m3/h] =520*0.86/ 25 = 17.89 m3/h~ 18 m3/hour;
The resistance of the heating system wasξ = 5 meters ;
In the case of an independent heating system, it must be understood that the resistance of the heat exchanger will be added to this resistance of 5 meters. To do this, you need to look at his calculation. For example, let this value be 3 meters. So, the total resistance of the system is obtained: 5 + 3 \u003d 8 meters.
Now you can choose circulation pump with a flow rate of 18m3/h and head 8 meters.
For example, this one:
In this case, the pump is selected with a large margin, it allows you to provide a working pointflow / head at the first speed of its work. If, for any reason, this pressure is not enough, the pump can be “dispersed” up to 13 meters at the third speed. The best option a pump variant is considered that maintains its duty point at the second speed.
It is also quite possible to put a pump with a built-in frequency converter instead of an ordinary pump with three or one speed, for example:
This version of the pump is, of course, the most preferable, since it allows the most flexible setting of the operating point. The only downside is the cost.
It is also necessary to remember that for the circulation of heating systems it is necessary to provide two pumps without fail (main / backup), and for the circulation of the DHW line it is quite possible to supply one.
Drinking system. Selection of the feed system pump.
It is obvious that the boost pump is necessary only in the case of independent systems, in particular heating, where the heating and heated circuit
separated by a heat exchanger. The make-up system itself is necessary to maintain a constant pressure in the secondary circuit in case of possible leaks.
in the heating system, as well as to fill the system itself. The recharge system itself consists of a pressure switch, a solenoid valve, and an expansion tank.
The make-up pump is installed only when the pressure of the coolant in the return is not enough to fill the system (the piezometer does not allow).
Example:
The pressure of the return heat carrier from the heating networks Р2 = 3 atm.
The height of the building, taking into account those. Underground = 40 meters.
3 atm. = 30 meters;
Required height = 40 meters + 5 meters (per spout) = 45 meters;
Pressure deficit = 45 meters - 30 meters = 15 meters = 1.5 atm.
The pressure of the feed pump is understandable, it should be 1.5 atmospheres.
How to determine the expense? The flow rate of the pump is assumed to be 20% of the volume of the heating system.
The principle of operation of the feeding system is as follows.
The pressure switch (pressure measuring device with relay output) measures the pressure of the return heat carrier in the heating system and has
presetting. For this particular example, this setting should be approximately 4.2 atmospheres with a hysteresis of 0.3.
When the pressure in the return of the heating system drops to 4.2 atm., The pressure switch closes its group of contacts. This supplies voltage to the solenoid
valve (opening) and make-up pump (switching on).
The make-up coolant is supplied until the pressure rises to a value of 4.2 atm + 0.3 = 4.5 atmospheres.
Calculation of the control valve for cavitation.
When distributing the available pressure between the elements of the heating point, it is necessary to take into account the possibility of cavitation processes inside the body
valves, which over time will destroy it.
The maximum allowable differential pressure across the valve can be determined from the formula:
∆Pmax= z*(P1 − Ps) ; bar
where: z is the coefficient of cavitation initiation, published in technical catalogs for the selection of equipment. Each equipment manufacturer has its own, but the average value is usually in the range of 0.45-06.
P1 - pressure in front of the valve, bar
Рs – saturation pressure of water vapor at a given coolant temperature, bar,
towhichdetermined by the table:
If the estimated differential pressure used to select the Kvs valve is not more than
∆Pmax, cavitation will not occur.
Example:
Pressure before valve P1 = 5 bar;
Coolant temperature Т1 = 140С;
Z valve catalog = 0.5
According to the table, for a coolant temperature of 140C, we determine Рs = 2.69
The maximum allowable differential pressure across the valve is:
∆Pmax= 0.5 * (5 - 2.69) = 1.155 bar
It is impossible to lose more than this difference on the valve - cavitation will begin.
But if the coolant temperature were lower, for example, 115C, which is closer to the real temperatures of the heating network, the maximum difference
pressure would be greater:ΔPmax\u003d 0.5 * (5 - 0.72) \u003d 2.14 bar.
From this we can draw a quite obvious conclusion: the higher the temperature of the coolant, the lower the pressure drop is possible across the control valve.
To determine the flow rate. Passing through the pipeline, it is enough to use the formula:
;m/s
G – coolant flow through the valve, m3/h
d – conditional diameter of the selected valve, mm
It is necessary to take into account the fact that the speed of the flow passing through the pipeline section should not exceed 1 m/s.
The most preferred flow velocity is in the range of 0.7 - 0.85 m/s.
The minimum speed should be 0.5 m/s.
The selection criterion for a DHW system is usually determined from specifications for connection: the heat generating company very often prescribes
type of DHW system. In case the type of system is not prescribed, a simple rule should be followed: determination by the ratio of building loads
for hot water and heating.
If a 0.2
Respectively,
If a QDHW/Qheating< 0.2 or QDHW/Qheating>1; needed single stage hot water system.
The very principle of operation of a two-stage DHW system is based on heat recovery from the return of the heating circuit: the return heat carrier of the heating circuit
passes through the first stage of hot water supply and heats up cold water from 5C to 41...48C. At the same time, the return coolant of the heating circuit cools down to 40C
and already cold merges into the heating network.
The second stage of the hot water supply warms up cold water from 41 ... 48C after the first stage to the prescribed 60 ... 65C.
Advantages of a two-stage DHW system:
1) Due to the heat recovery of the heating circuit return, a cooled coolant enters the heating network, which dramatically reduces the likelihood of overheating
return lines. This point is extremely important for heat generating companies, in particular, heating networks. Now it is becoming common to carry out calculations of heat exchangers of the first stage of hot water supply at a minimum temperature of 30 ° C, so that an even colder coolant merges into the return of the heating network.
2) The two-stage DHW system more accurately controls the temperature of hot water, which goes to the consumer for analysis and temperature fluctuations
at the exit from the system is much less. This is achieved due to the fact that the control valve of the second stage of domestic hot water, in the course of its operation, regulates
only a small part of the load, not the whole.
When distributing loads between the first and second stages of hot water supply, it is very convenient to proceed as follows:
70% load - 1 stage DHW;
30% load - 2nd stage DHW;
What does it give.
1) Since the second (adjustable) stage turns out to be small, then in the process of regulating the DHW temperature, temperature fluctuations at the outlet of
systems are small.
2) Due to this distribution of the DHW load, in the process of calculation we get the equality of costs and, as a result, the equality of diameters in the piping of the heat exchangers.
The consumption for DHW circulation must be at least 30% of the consumption of DHW dismantled by the consumer. This is the minimum number. To increase reliability
system and stability of DHW temperature control, the flow rate for circulation can be increased to a value of 40-45%. This is done not only to maintain
hot water temperature when there is no analysis by the consumer. This is done to compensate for the “drawdown” of the DHW at the time of the peak analysis of the DHW, since the consumption
circulation will support the system at the moment the volume of the heat exchanger is filled with cold water for heating.
There are cases of incorrect calculation of the DHW system, when instead of a two-stage system, a single-stage one is designed. After installing such a system,
in the process of commissioning, the specialist is faced with extreme instability of the DHW system. It is appropriate here to even talk about inoperability,
which is expressed by large temperature fluctuations at the outlet of the DHW system with an amplitude of 15-20C from the setpoint. For example, when the setting
is 60C, then in the process of regulation, temperature fluctuations occur in the range from 40 to 80C. In this case, changing the settings
electronic controller (PID - components, stroke time, etc.) will not give a result, since the DHW hydraulics are fundamentally incorrectly calculated.
There is only one way out: to limit the flow of cold water and maximize the circulation component of hot water. In this case, at the mixing point
less cold water will mix with more hot (circulating) water and the system will work more stable.
Thus, some kind of imitation of a two-stage DHW system is performed due to the circulation of DHW.
The operating pressure in the heating system is the most important parameter on which the functioning of the entire network depends. Deviations in one direction or another from the values provided for by the project not only reduce the efficiency of the heating circuit, but also significantly affect the operation of the equipment, and in special cases can even disable it.
Of course, a certain pressure drop in the heating system is due to the principle of its design, namely the pressure difference in the supply and return pipelines. But if there are larger jumps, immediate action should be taken.
- static pressure. This component depends on the height of the water column or other coolant in the pipe or container. Static pressure exists even if the working medium is at rest.
- dynamic pressure. Represents the force that acts on the internal surfaces of the system during the movement of water or other medium.
Allocate the concept of limiting working pressure. This is the maximum allowable value, the excess of which is fraught with the destruction of individual elements of the network.
What pressure in the system should be considered optimal?
Table of maximum pressure in the heating system.
When designing heating, the coolant pressure in the system is calculated based on the number of storeys of the building, the total length of the pipelines and the number of radiators. As a rule, for private houses and cottages, the optimal values \u200b\u200bof the pressure of the medium in the heating circuit are in the range from 1.5 to 2 atm.
For apartment buildings up to five floors high, connected to a central heating system, the pressure in the network is maintained at a level of 2-4 atm. For nine- and ten-story houses, a pressure of 5-7 atm is considered normal, and in higher buildings - 7-10 atm. The maximum pressure is recorded in the heating mains, through which the coolant is transported from boiler houses to consumers. Here it reaches 12 atm.
For consumers located at different heights and at different distances from the boiler house, the pressure in the network has to be adjusted. Pressure regulators are used to lower it, and pumping stations are used to increase it. However, it should be borne in mind that a faulty regulator can cause an increase in pressure in certain parts of the system. In some cases, when the temperature drops, these devices can completely block the shut-off valves on the supply pipeline coming from the boiler plant.
To avoid such situations, the settings of the regulators are corrected in such a way that complete valve overlap is not possible.
Autonomous heating systems
Expansion tank in an autonomous heating system.
In the absence of centralized heat supply in houses, autonomous heating systems are installed in which the coolant is heated by an individual low-power boiler. If the system communicates with the atmosphere through an expansion tank and the coolant circulates in it due to natural convection, it is called open. If there is no communication with the atmosphere, and the working medium circulates thanks to the pump, the system is called closed. As already mentioned, for the normal functioning of such systems, the water pressure in them should be approximately 1.5-2 atm. Such a low figure is due to the relatively short length of pipelines, as well as a small number of devices and fittings, resulting in a relatively low hydraulic resistance. In addition, due to the small height of such houses, the static pressure in the lower sections of the circuit rarely exceeds 0.5 atm.
At the stage of launching an autonomous system, it is filled with a cold coolant, maintaining a minimum pressure in closed heating systems of 1.5 atm. Do not sound the alarm if, after some time after filling, the pressure in the circuit drops. The pressure loss in this case is due to the release of air from the water, which was dissolved in it when the pipelines were filled. The circuit should be vented and completely filled with coolant, bringing its pressure to 1.5 atm.
After heating the coolant in the heating system, its pressure will increase slightly, while reaching the calculated operating values.
Precautionary measures
A device for measuring pressure.
Since when designing autonomous heating systems, in order to save money, a margin of safety is assumed to be small, even a low pressure jump of up to 3 atm can cause depressurization of individual elements or their connections. In order to smooth out pressure drops due to unstable operation of the pump or changes in the temperature of the coolant, an expansion tank is installed in a closed heating system. Unlike a similar device in an open type system, it does not have communication with the atmosphere. One or more of its walls are made of an elastic material, due to which the tank acts as a damper during pressure surges or water hammer.
The presence of an expansion tank does not always guarantee that the pressure is maintained within optimal limits. In some cases, it may exceed the maximum allowable values:
- with incorrect selection of the capacity of the expansion tank;
- in case of malfunction of the circulation pump;
- when the coolant overheats, which happens as a result of violations in the operation of the boiler automation;
- due to incomplete opening of shut-off valves after repair or maintenance work;
- due to the appearance of an air lock (this phenomenon can provoke both an increase in pressure and its fall);
- with a decrease in the throughput of the mud filter due to its excessive clogging.
Therefore, in order to avoid emergency situations when installing closed-type heating systems, it is mandatory to install a safety valve that will discharge excess coolant if the permissible pressure is exceeded.
What to do if the pressure drops in the heating system
Expansion tank pressure.
During the operation of autonomous heating systems, the most frequent are such emergency situations in which the pressure gradually or sharply decreases. They can be caused by two reasons:
- depressurization of system elements or their connections;
- boiler malfunction.
In the first case, the leak should be located and its tightness restored. You can do this in two ways:
- Visual inspection. This method is used in cases where the heating circuit is laid in an open way (not to be confused with an open type system), that is, all its pipelines, fittings and devices are in sight. First of all, they carefully examine the floor under pipes and radiators, trying to detect puddles of water or traces of them. In addition, the place of leakage can be fixed by traces of corrosion: characteristic rusty streaks form on radiators or at the joints of system elements in case of leakage.
- With the help of special equipment. If a visual inspection of the radiators did not give anything, and the pipes were laid in a hidden way and cannot be inspected, you should seek the help of specialists. They have special equipment that will help detect the leak and fix it if the owner of the house does not have the opportunity to do it himself. Localization of the depressurization point is quite simple: water is drained from the heating circuit (for such cases, a drain valve is cut into the lower point of the circuit at the installation stage), then air is pumped into it using a compressor. The location of the leak is determined by the characteristic sound that the leaking air makes. Before starting the compressor, use shut-off valves to isolate the boiler and radiators.
If the problem area is one of the joints, it is additionally sealed with tow or FUM tape, and then tightened. The broken pipeline is cut out and a new one is welded in its place. Units that cannot be repaired are simply replaced.
If the tightness of pipelines and other elements is beyond doubt, and the pressure in the closed heating system still drops, you should look for the causes of this phenomenon in the boiler. It is not necessary to carry out diagnostics on your own; this is a job for a specialist with the appropriate education. Most often, the following defects are found in the boiler:
The device of the heating system with a manometer.
- the appearance of microcracks in the heat exchanger due to water hammer;
- manufacturing defects;
- failure of the feed valve.
A very common reason why the pressure in the system drops is the wrong selection of the capacity of the expansion tank.
Although the previous section said that this could cause pressure to rise, there is no contradiction here. When the pressure in the heating system rises, the safety valve is activated. In this case, the coolant is discharged and its volume in the circuit decreases. As a result, over time, the pressure will decrease.
Pressure control
To visually control the pressure in the heating network, dial gauges with a Bredan tube are most often used. Unlike digital instruments, these pressure gauges do not require an electrical connection. Electrocontact sensors are used in automated systems. A three-way valve must be installed on the outlet to the control and measuring device. It allows you to isolate the pressure gauge from the network during maintenance or repair, and is also used to remove an air lock or reset the device to zero.
Instructions and rules governing the operation of heating systems, both autonomous and centralized, recommend installing pressure gauges at such points:
- In front of the boiler plant (or boiler) and at its outlet. At this point, the pressure in the boiler is determined.
- before and after the circulation pump.
- At the entrance of the heating main to a building or structure.
- before and after the pressure regulator.
- At the inlet and outlet of the coarse filter (sump) to control the level of its contamination.
All measuring and control devices should be regularly verified to confirm the accuracy of their measurements.
Incorrect data. If the value of the pressure shortage is beyond the real values for a given network, then there is an error when entering the initial data or an error when plotting the network diagram on the map. Please check if the following information has been entered correctly:
Hydraulic network mode.
If there are no errors when entering the initial data, but there is a lack of pressure and has a real value for this network, then in this situation, the cause of the shortage is determined and the method of its elimination is carried out by the specialist working with this heating network.

"Concretization of indicators of the quantity and quality of communal resources in the modern realities of housing and communal services"
SPECIFICATION OF INDICATORS OF QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF UTILITY RESOURCES IN THE MODERN REALITIES OF HUSAL COMPANY
V.U. Kharitonsky, Head of Engineering Systems Department
A. M. Filippov, Deputy Head of the Department of Engineering Systems,
Moscow State Housing Inspectorate
Documents regulating the indicators of the quantity and quality of communal resources supplied to household consumers at the border of responsibility of the resource supply and housing organizations have not been developed to date. In addition to the existing requirements, specialists of the Moscow Housing Inspection propose to specify the values of the parameters of heat and water supply systems at the entrance to the building in order to maintain the quality of public services in residential multi-apartment buildings.
A review of the current rules and regulations for the technical operation of the housing stock in the field of housing and communal services showed that at present the construction, sanitary norms and rules, GOST R 51617 -2000 * "Housing and communal services", "Rules for the provision of public services to citizens", approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 23, 2006 No. 307, and other current regulatory documents consider and set parameters and modes only at the source (central heating station, boiler house, water booster pumping station) that generates a communal resource (cold, hot water and thermal energy), and directly in the apartment of a resident, where a utility service is provided. However, they do not take into account the current realities of the division of housing and communal services into residential buildings and public utility facilities and the established limits of responsibility of the resource supply and housing organizations, which are the subject of endless disputes when determining the guilty party for not providing services to the population or providing services of inadequate quality. Thus, today there is no document regulating the indicators of quantity and quality at the entrance to the house, on the border of responsibility of the resource supply and housing organizations.
Nevertheless, an analysis of the inspections of the quality of supplied communal resources and services conducted by the Moscow Housing Inspection showed that the provisions of federal regulatory legal acts in the field of housing and communal services can be detailed and concretized in relation to apartment buildings, which will make it possible to establish mutual responsibility of resource-supplying and managing housing organizations. It should be noted that the quality and quantity of utility resources supplied to the boundary of operational responsibility of the resource supplying and managing housing organization, and utility services to residents is determined and evaluated based on the readings, first of all, of common house meters installed at the inputs
systems of heat and water supply to residential buildings, and an automated system for monitoring and accounting for energy consumption.
Thus, Moszhilinspektsiya, based on the interests of residents and many years of practice, in addition to the requirements of regulatory documents and in the development of the provisions of SNiP and SanPin in relation to operating conditions, as well as in order to comply with the quality of public services provided to the population in residential multi-apartment buildings, proposed to regulate on input of heat and water supply systems into the house (at the metering and control unit), the following standard values of parameters and modes recorded by common house metering devices and an automated system for monitoring and metering energy consumption:
1) for the central heating system (CH):
The deviation of the average daily temperature of the network water supplied to the heating systems must be within ± 3% of the established temperature schedule. The average daily temperature of the return network water should not exceed the temperature specified by the temperature chart by more than 5%;
The pressure of network water in the return pipeline of the central heating system must be at least 0.05 MPa (0.5 kgf / cm 2) higher than the static one (for the system), but not higher than the permissible one (for pipelines, heaters, fittings and other equipment ). If necessary, it is allowed to install backwater regulators on return pipelines in the ITP of heating systems of residential buildings directly connected to the main heating networks;
The network water pressure in the supply pipeline of the CH systems must be higher than the required water pressure in the return pipelines by the amount of available pressure (to ensure the circulation of the heat carrier in the system);
The available pressure (pressure drop between the supply and return pipelines) of the heat carrier at the inlet of the central heating heating network into the building must be maintained by heat supply organizations within:
a) with dependent connection (with elevator units) - in accordance with the project, but not less than 0.08 MPa (0.8 kgf / cm 2);
b) with independent connection - in accordance with the project, but not less than 0.03 MPa (0.3 kgf / cm2) more than the hydraulic resistance of the central heating system inside the house.
2) For hot water supply system (DHW):
Hot water temperature in the DHW supply pipeline for closed systems within 55-65 °С, for open heat supply systems within 60-75 °С;
Temperature in the DHW circulation pipeline (for closed and open systems) 46-55 °С;
The arithmetic mean of the temperature of hot water in the supply and circulation pipelines at the inlet of the DHW system must in all cases not be lower than 50 °C;
The available pressure (pressure drop between the supply and circulation pipelines) at the estimated circulation flow rate of the DHW system must be at least 0.03-0.06 MPa (0.3-0.6 kgf / cm 2);
The water pressure in the supply pipeline of the DHW system must be higher than the water pressure in the circulation pipeline by the amount of available pressure (to ensure the circulation of hot water in the system);
The water pressure in the circulation pipeline of DHW systems must be at least 0.05 MPa (0.5 kgf / cm 2) higher than the static pressure (for the system), but not exceed the static pressure (for the highest located and high-rise building) by more than by 0.20 MPa (2 kgf/cm2).
With these parameters in apartments near sanitary appliances of residential premises, in accordance with the regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, the following values \u200b\u200bmust be provided:
Hot water temperature not lower than 50 °С (optimum - 55 °С);
The minimum free pressure at the sanitary appliances of the residential premises of the upper floors is 0.02-0.05 MPa (0.2-0.5 kgf / cm 2);
The maximum free pressure in hot water supply systems near sanitary appliances on the upper floors should not exceed 0.20 MPa (2 kgf / cm 2);
The maximum free pressure in the water supply systems at the sanitary appliances of the lower floors should not exceed 0.45 MPa (4.5 kgf / cm 2).
3) For cold water supply system (CWS):
The water pressure in the supply pipeline of the cold water system must be at least 0.05 MPa (0.5 kgf / cm 2) higher than the static pressure (for the system), but not exceed the static pressure (for the highest located and high-rise building) by more than 0.20 MPa (2 kgf / cm 2).
With this parameter in apartments, in accordance with the regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, the following values \u200b\u200bmust be provided:
a) the minimum free pressure at the sanitary appliances of the residential premises of the upper floors is 0.02-0.05 MPa (0.2-0.5 kgf / cm 2);
b) the minimum pressure in front of the gas water heater of the upper floors is at least 0.10 MPa (1 kgf / cm 2);
c) the maximum free pressure in the water supply systems near the sanitary appliances of the lower floors should not exceed 0.45 MPa (4.5 kgf / cm 2).
4) For all systems:
The static pressure at the inlet to the heat and water supply systems should ensure that the pipelines of the central heating, cold water and hot water systems are filled with water, while the static water pressure should not be higher than that allowed for this system.
The water pressure values in the hot water and cold water systems at the inlet of pipelines into the house must be at the same level (achieved by setting the automatic control devices of the heating point and / or pumping station), while the maximum allowable pressure difference should be no more than 0.10 MPa (1 kgf / cm 2).
These parameters at the entrance to the buildings should be provided by resource supplying organizations by taking measures for automatic regulation, optimization, uniform distribution of heat energy, cold and hot water between consumers, and for return pipelines of systems - also by housing management organizations through inspections, identification and elimination of violations or re-equipment and carrying out adjustment activities of engineering systems of buildings. These measures should be carried out when preparing heat points, pumping stations and intra-quarter networks for seasonal operation, as well as in cases of violations of the specified parameters (indicators of the quantity and quality of communal resources supplied to the boundary of operational responsibility).
If the specified values of parameters and modes are not observed, the resource supplying organization is obliged to immediately take all necessary measures to restore them. In addition, in case of violation of the specified values of the parameters of the delivered communal resources and the quality of the communal services provided, it is necessary to recalculate the payment for the communal services provided in violation of their quality.
Thus, compliance with these indicators will ensure the comfortable living of citizens, the effective functioning of engineering systems, networks, residential buildings and public utilities that provide heat and water supply to the housing stock, as well as the supply of communal resources in the required quantity and standard quality to the boundaries of the operational responsibility of the resource supply and managing housing organization (at the input of engineering communications into the house).

In water heat supply systems, consumers are provided with heat by appropriately distributing the estimated flow rates of network water between them. To implement such a distribution, it is necessary to develop the hydraulic regime of the heat supply system.
The purpose of developing the hydraulic regime of the heat supply system is to ensure optimally permissible pressures in all elements of the heat supply system and the necessary available pressures at the nodal points of the heating network, in group and local heating points, sufficient to supply consumers with estimated water consumption. Available pressure is the difference in water pressure in the supply and return pipelines.
For the reliability of the heat supply system, the following conditions are imposed:
Do not exceed the permissible pressures: in heat supply sources and heating networks: 1.6-2.5 MPa - for steam-water network heaters of the PSV type, for steel hot water boilers, steel pipes and fittings; in subscriber units: 1.0 MPa - for sectional hot water heaters; 0.8-1.0 MPa - for steel convectors; 0.6 MPa - for cast iron radiators; 0.8 MPa - for heaters;
Providing excess pressure in all elements of the heat supply system to prevent cavitation of pumps and protect the heat supply system from air leakage. The minimum value of excess pressure is assumed to be 0.05 MPa. For this reason, the piezometric line of the return pipeline in all modes must be located at least 5 m of water above the point of the tallest building. Art.;
At all points in the heating system, pressure must be maintained in excess of the saturated water vapor pressure at the maximum water temperature, ensuring that the water does not boil. As a rule, the danger of boiling water most often occurs in the supply pipelines of the heating network. The minimum pressure in the supply pipelines is taken according to the design temperature of the network water, table 7.1.
Table 7.1
The non-boiling line must be drawn on the graph parallel to the terrain at a height corresponding to the excess head at the maximum coolant temperature.
Graphically, the hydraulic regime is conveniently depicted in the form of a piezometric graph. The piezometric graph is built for two hydraulic regimes: hydrostatic and hydrodynamic.
The purpose of developing a hydrostatic regime is to provide the necessary water pressure in the heat supply system, within acceptable limits. The lower pressure limit should ensure that consumer systems are filled with water and create the necessary minimum pressure to protect the heat supply system from air leakage. The hydrostatic mode is developed with the make-up pumps running and no circulation.
The hydrodynamic regime is developed on the basis of data from the hydraulic calculation of heat networks and is ensured by the simultaneous operation of make-up and network pumps.
The development of the hydraulic regime is reduced to the construction of a piezometric graph that meets all the requirements for the hydraulic regime. Hydraulic modes of water heating networks (piezometric graphs) should be developed for heating and non-heating periods. The piezometric graph allows you to: determine the pressure in the supply and return pipelines; available pressure at any point of the heating network, taking into account the terrain; according to the available pressure and height of buildings, choose consumer connection schemes; select automatic regulators, elevator nozzles, throttle devices for local systems of heat consumers; select mains and make-up pumps.
Building a piezometric graph(Fig. 7.1) is performed as follows:
a) scales are selected along the abscissa and ordinate axes and the terrain and the height of the building of the quarters are plotted. Piezometric graphs are built for main and distribution heating networks. For main heat networks, the scales can be taken: horizontal M g 1: 10000; vertical M at 1:1000; for distribution heating networks: M g 1:1000, M in 1:500; The zero mark of the y-axis (pressure axes) is usually taken as the mark of the lowest point of the heating main or the mark of network pumps.
b) the value of the static head is determined, which ensures the filling of consumer systems and the creation of a minimum excess head. This is the height of the highest building plus 3-5 meters of water.
After applying the terrain and the height of buildings, the static head of the system is determined
H c t \u003d [H zd + (3¸5)], m (7.1)
where N zd is the height of the tallest building, m.
The static head H st is drawn parallel to the abscissa axis, and it should not exceed the maximum operating head for local systems. The value of the maximum working pressure is: for heating systems with steel heaters and for heaters - 80 meters; for heating systems with cast-iron radiators - 60 meters; for independent connection schemes with surface heat exchangers - 100 meters;
c) Then a dynamic regime is built. The suction head of the network pumps Ns is arbitrarily chosen, which should not exceed the static head and provides the necessary head pressure at the inlet to prevent cavitation. The cavitation reserve, depending on the measurement of the pump, is 5-10 m.a.c.;
d) from the conditional pressure line at the suction of the network pumps, the pressure losses on the return pipeline DH arr of the main pipeline of the heating network (line A-B) are sequentially plotted using the results of the hydraulic calculation. The magnitude of the pressure in the return line must meet the requirements specified above when constructing a static pressure line;
e) the required available pressure is postponed at the last subscriber DH ab, from the operating conditions of the elevator, heater, mixer and distribution heating networks (line B-C). The value of the available pressure at the point of connection of distribution networks is assumed to be at least 40 m;
e) starting from the last piping node, the pressure losses in the supply pipeline of the main line DH under (line C-D) are postponed. The pressure at all points of the supply pipeline, based on the condition of its mechanical strength, should not exceed 160 m;
g) the pressure loss in the heat source DH um (line D-E) is plotted and the pressure at the outlet of the network pumps is obtained. In the absence of data, the head loss in the communications of the CHP can be taken as 25 - 30 m, and for a district boiler house 8-16 m.
The pressure of network pumps is determined
The pressure of the make-up pumps is determined by the pressure of the static mode.
As a result of such a construction, the initial form of the piezometric graph is obtained, which allows you to evaluate the pressure at all points of the heat supply system (Fig. 7.1).
If they do not meet the requirements, change the position and shape of the piezometric graph:
a) if the pressure line of the return pipeline crosses the height of the building or is less than 3¸5 m away from it, then the piezometric graph should be raised so that the pressure in the return pipeline ensures that the system is filled;
b) if the value of the maximum pressure in the return pipeline exceeds the allowable pressure in the heaters, and it cannot be reduced by shifting the piezometric graph down, then it should be reduced by installing booster pumps in the return pipeline;
c) if the non-boiling line crosses the pressure line in the supply pipeline, then water may boil behind the intersection point. Therefore, the water pressure in this part of the heating network should be increased by moving the piezometric graph upwards, if possible, or installing a booster pump on the supply pipeline;
d) if the maximum pressure in the equipment of the heat treatment plant of the heat source exceeds the permissible value, then booster pumps are installed on the supply pipeline.
Division of the heating network into static zones. A piezometric graph is developed for two modes. Firstly, for a static mode, when there is no water circulation in the heat supply system. It is assumed that the system is filled with water at a temperature of 100°C, thereby eliminating the need to maintain excess pressure in the heat pipes to avoid boiling of the coolant. Secondly, for the hydrodynamic regime - in the presence of coolant circulation in the system.
The development of the schedule begins with a static mode. The location on the graph of the line of full static pressure should ensure the connection of all subscribers to the heating network according to a dependent scheme. To do this, the static pressure should not exceed the allowable one from the strength condition of subscriber installations and should ensure that local systems are filled with water. The presence of a common static zone for the entire heat supply system simplifies its operation and increases its reliability. If there is a significant difference in geodetic elevations of the earth, the establishment of a common static zone is impossible for the following reasons.
The lowest position of the static pressure level is determined from the conditions of filling local systems with water and providing at the upper points of the systems of the tallest buildings located in the zone of the largest geodetic marks, an overpressure of at least 0.05 MPa. Such pressure turns out to be unacceptably high for buildings located in that part of the area that has the lowest geodetic marks. Under such conditions, it becomes necessary to divide the heat supply system into two static zones. One zone for a part of the area with low geodetic marks, the other - with high ones.
On fig. 7.2 shows a piezometric graph and a schematic diagram of the heat supply system for an area with a significant difference in geodetic elevations of the ground level (40m). The part of the area adjacent to the source of heat supply has zero geodetic marks, in the peripheral part of the area the marks are 40m. The height of the buildings is 30 and 45m. For the possibility of filling the heating systems of buildings with water III and IV located at the 40m mark and creating an excess head of 5m at the highest points of the systems, the level of the full static head should be located at the 75m mark (line 5 2 - S 2). In this case, the static head will be 35m. However, a head of 75m is unacceptable for buildings I and II located at zero. For them, the permissible highest position of the total static pressure level corresponds to 60m. Thus, under the conditions under consideration, it is impossible to establish a common static zone for the entire heat supply system.
A possible solution is to divide the heat supply system into two zones with different levels of total static pressure - the lower one with a level of 50m (line S t-Si) and the upper one with a level of 75m (line S 2 -S2). With this solution, all consumers can be connected to the heat supply system according to a dependent scheme, since the static pressures in the lower and upper zones are within acceptable limits.
So that when the circulation of water in the system stops, the levels of static pressures are established in accordance with the accepted two zones, a separating device is located at the junction (Fig. 7.2 6 ). This device protects the heating network from increased pressure when the circulation pumps stop, automatically cutting it into two hydraulically independent zones: upper and lower.
When the circulation pumps stop, the pressure drop in the return pipeline of the upper zone is prevented by the pressure regulator “to itself” RDDS (10), which maintains a constant predetermined pressure HRDDS at the point of impulse selection. When the pressure drops, it closes. A pressure drop in the supply line is prevented by a non-return valve (11) installed on it, which also closes. Thus, RDDS and a check valve cut the heating network into two zones. To feed the upper zone, a booster pump (8) is installed, which takes water from the lower zone and delivers it to the upper one. The head developed by the pump is equal to the difference between the hydrostatic heads of the upper and lower zones. The bottom zone is fed by the make-up pump 2 and the make-up controller 3.

b - schematic diagram of the heat supply system; S 1 - S 1 - the line of the total static head of the lower zone;
S 2 - S 2, - line of the total static head of the upper zone;
N p.n1 - pressure developed by the make-up pump of the lower zone; N p.n2 - pressure developed by the make-up pump of the upper zone; N RDDS - head to which the RDDS (10) and RD2 (9) regulators are set; ΔN RDDS - pressure actuated on the valve of the RDDS regulator in hydrodynamic mode; I-IV- subscribers; 1-tank make-up water; 2.3 - make-up pump and bottom zone make-up regulator; 4 - upstream pump; 5 - main steam-water heaters; 6- network pump; 7 - peak hot water boiler; eight , 9 - make-up pump and make-up regulator for the upper zone; 10 - pressure regulator "to yourself" RDDS; 11- check valve
The RDDS regulator is set to the pressure Nrdds (Fig. 7.2a). The feed regulator RD2 is set to the same pressure.
In hydrodynamic mode, the RDDS regulator maintains the pressure at the same level. At the beginning of the network, a make-up pump with a regulator maintains a pressure H O1. The difference between these heads is used to overcome the hydraulic resistance in the return pipeline between the separating device and the circulation pump of the heat source, the rest of the pressure is released in the throttle substation at the RDDS valve. On fig. 8.9, and this part of the pressure is shown by the value of ΔН RDDS. The throttle substation in hydrodynamic mode allows maintaining the pressure in the return line of the upper zone not lower than the accepted level of static pressure S 2 - S 2 .
Piezometric lines corresponding to the hydrodynamic regime are shown in Figs. 7.2a. The highest pressure in the return pipeline at consumer IV is 90-40 = 50m, which is acceptable. The pressure in the return line of the lower zone is also within acceptable limits.
In the supply pipeline, the maximum head after the heat source is 160 m, which does not exceed the allowable pressure from the pipe strength condition. The minimum piezometric head in the supply pipeline is 110 m, which ensures that the coolant does not boil over, since at a design temperature of 150 ° C, the minimum allowable pressure is 40 m.
The piezometric graph developed for static and hydrodynamic modes provides the possibility of connecting all subscribers according to a dependent scheme.
Another possible solution for the hydrostatic mode of the heat supply system shown in fig. 7.2 is the connection of a part of subscribers according to an independent scheme. There may be two options here. First option- set the total level of static pressure at 50m (line S 1 - S 1), and connect the buildings located at the upper geodetic marks according to an independent scheme. In this case, the static head in the water-to-water heating heaters of buildings in the upper zone on the side of the heating coolant will be 50-40 = 10 m, and on the side of the heated coolant it will be determined by the height of the buildings. The second option is to set the total level of static pressure at around 75 m (line S 2 - S 2) with the buildings of the upper zone connected according to a dependent scheme, and the buildings of the lower zone - according to an independent one. In this case, the static head in water-to-water heaters on the side of the heating coolant will be 75 m, i.e., less than the permissible value (100 m).
