Is there a relationship between the amount of water in the radiator and the electricity consumption?

It depends on the type of heat source of the radiator in question.

In the case of a central heating system, the amount of water charged by the radiators has nothing to do with the amount of electricity used by the household.

The larger the water charge of the radiator itself, the larger the total heat exchange area of the radiator, the greater the corresponding heat exchange capacity, the better the heating effect, and the better the electricity consumption.

The water capacity is the performance parameter of the radiator in addition to the heat dissipation, center distance, and working pressure. As a kind of heating equipment, it is first of all a water container, and the amount of water it holds is expressed in L. Many people have the notion that the larger the water capacity of the radiator, the better.

Is that really the case?

The water capacity of different types of radiators is not the same, and the water capacity of the same style of radiator will be different due to different models, and the water capacity of copper-aluminum composite radiators is less than that of steel radiators.

Does the water capacity have an impact on the amount of heat dissipated? Answer, the heat dissipation of the radiator has a certain relationship with the water capacity of the radiator itself, but the effect is not large. The use of radiators with large water capacity and heat dissipation ratio, such as double water channel radiators and large water channel radiators, requires a long running time from cold start to working temperature, large heat load and large energy consumption; The advantage is that the heating system is relatively thermally inert, and there is no impact on the heating quality when the heating is continuously heated.

Radiators with small water capacity can be heated immediately to save energy, but the disadvantage is that it heats up quickly and cools quickly. Therefore, there are advantages and disadvantages to the large and small water capacity of radiators, and the bigger the better.

Nowadays, there are various types of radiators on the market, how should consumers choose and pay attention to the water capacity of the radiator? Remind consumers: in the hot water heating system, the steel radiator has a large water capacity and a longer heat preservation time, which is more suitable for continuous and large-area heating; The water capacity of the copper-aluminum composite radiator is relatively small, and the temperature can be flexibly adjusted to achieve rapid heating, energy saving, and intermittent heating, which is suitable for use in the independent heating system of small families.

The amount of electricity consumed by a hydropower radiator in an hour is related to power.

It can be as small as 800w and as large as more than 3000w. The higher the power, the faster the room will heat up, but the corresponding power consumption will be greater. Specifically, power consumption = power use time 1000, taking a 2000w electric radiator as an example, according to the formula, the power consumption of the electric radiator is 2 degrees in one hour.

There is no need to drain water. Residents should also not drain the water from the radiators and pipes after the heating is stopped. For the vast majority of radiators, maintenance is required to be fully watered, so the inlet and return valves of the radiator must be closed when the heating is stopped, which is essential to extend the life of the radiator.

In addition, the radiator is retained with anti-corrosion treatment of softened water, which can effectively isolate the corrosion of the air on the radiator and the pipe, and prolong the service life of the pipeline.

The normal operation of the heating system does not need to drain water, and there is a deflation on the upper side of the radiator. If you don't release water, it won't be hot, it's a problem with the circulation system, and you can find a professional plumbing technician to solve it.

The amount of electricity consumed by a hydropower radiator in an hour is related to power.

It can be as small as 800w and as large as more than 3000w. The higher the power, the faster the room will heat up, but the corresponding power consumption will be greater. Specifically, power consumption = power use time 1000, taking a 2000w electric radiator as an example, according to the formula, the power consumption of the electric radiator is 2 degrees in one hour.

With a power of 2000 watts, when the full power is used (and the gear is adjusted to the highest gear, the thermostat is adjusted to the highest, and the radiator is always in the state of energized heating), the power consumption per hour is 2 degrees;

After using it for a long time, it will increase with the temperature, and when the set temperature is reached, the thermostat will stop heating, and when the temperature decreases, the thermostat will automatically heat. At this point, the power consumption will be less.

With a power of 2000 watts, when the full power is used (and the gear is adjusted to the highest gear, the thermostat is adjusted to the highest, and the radiator is always in the state of energized heating), the power consumption per hour is 2 degrees;

Regarding the water capacity in the radiator, I don't know if you have paid attention to it, is the water capacity in the radiator the same? Does the size of the water capacity affect the heating effect? If you have the same question as me, let's follow Brother Jin Flagship to find out.

In the first case, the radiator has a large water capacity.

The heating system is relatively thermally inert, and when the boiler is intermittently heated, the water cooling time is slightly longer, and the heating room can still maintain a certain temperature for a long time. However, when the water is supplied again, the water temperature rise is relatively slow, and the system with a large water capacity is slow to respond to the adjustment. However, in the case of continuous heating, there is no effect on the heating quality;

In the second case, the water capacity of the radiator is small.

Because the water capacity is small, the starting time of the radiator is also relatively short, the temperature adjustment is sensitive, the room heats up quickly, and the radiator with small water capacity is a good choice for the metering and heating of households, which is both cost-effective and convenient;

All in all, the heat emitted by the radiator is carried and transported by the flowing water, and the size of the water capacity has no direct impact on the heat dissipation, but the length of time to adjust the temperature is different. Just like boiling hot water at home, the kettle contains more water and the heating time is longer, and the less water it contains, it will be boiled quickly.

Generally speaking, the water capacity of copper-aluminum composite radiator is smaller than that of steel radiator, so the copper-aluminum composite radiator heats up quickly and adjusts flexibly, which can realize intermittent heating where people heat up quickly and people can cool down. You can choose the right radiator according to your needs.

1. Too expensive: central heating 25 yuan square meter * 100 square meters = 2500 yuan (a heating season, November 15 - March 15); Hydroelectric radiator (12kw can be used for 100 square meters) 12 degrees (electricity kw hours) * yuan * 24 hours * 120 days = 17280 yuan.

2. Because everyone found that electric radiators are not environmentally friendly and consume a lot of electricity in the process of use, they are not widely implemented. The dominant thing in the market is still the plumbing radiator. Plumbing radiators are low-carbon and environmentally friendly, saving energy. Recognized by everyone.

3. Electric heating consumes a lot of electricity and saves energy, and plumbing is troublesome.

Hydroelectric radiators are still very power-intensive, and generally consume about two kilowatt-hours of electricity for an hour. However, the water and electricity radiators in our homes will not be used around the clock when they are used, and the electricity used with the increase in temperature at the beginning is also relatively large, but generally after reaching the temperature we set, the water and electricity radiators will stop heating, as long as they are not heated, they are basically not power-consuming, and the water and electricity radiators will continue to work when the temperature drops, so the water and electricity radiators are still very good.
