Heat budget
Building heat, cooling demand and the thermal reserve of a liquid mass.
Heat sources
Active time is your planned operating time. Inputs must be supplied continuously while a building runs.
Heat balance
Building heat is averaged over planned operating time. Material delivery, duplicants and environmental exchange belong in the additional heat input.
Liquid heat reservoir
Material
Water · 4.179 DTU/(g·°C)
A perfectly mixed, insulated mass with constant heat input. This estimates thermal storage, not pipe conductivity, tile exchange or a room’s equilibrium.
