ENHANCEMENT OF EFFICIENCY OF HEATING SYSTEM WITH THE HELP OF INFRARED HEATER
Abstract
See the Russian climate there is always a task to find most efficient systems of heating of industrial sites in transport sector. The article considers possibility to use infrared gas heaters in car repair shed.
Radiation heating is more efficient if compared to convection system as it results in more even distribution of temperature in the premises, fast changing of temperature to the required level, reduces effects of airflows, and consequently the dust level. It also saves at about 15-30%% of heating power. These conclusions are substantiated by mathematical methods. The algorithms of correct installation are also shown.
It is proved that thanks to well-engineered heating process, infrared heaters are ecologically less harmful than heating systems with gas burning in boilerhouses. They are safe and conform to the job safety standards in effect.
