f = required water flow rate (gpm) Q = heat transport rate (Btuh) T = temperature drop between supply and return piping (F) k = 490 for water, 479 for 30% glycol, 450 for 50% glycol f= Q___ k (T)
Lets apply this formula to distribution circuit supplying 250,000 Btuh to a manifold station in a large floor heating system. Assume the supply water temperature to the floor circuits at design load is 110 F, and the design temperature drop across the manifold station is 20. The supply water temperature is created by blending hot boiler water with cooler return water at a mixing device in the mechanical room. The flow needed to transport 250,000 Btuh to the manifold station is: f= Q___ = 250,000 = 25.5 gpm k (T) 490 (20)
This flow requires 2 in. piping between the mechanical room and manifold station if the flow velocity is not to exceed 4 feet per second (fps). Now suppose that the mixing took place at the manifold station rather than the machanical room. Assume 180 water is sent to the manifold station to be mixed with the 90 return water. The temperature drop between the piping leaving and returning to the mechanical room would now be 180 90 = 90, or 4.5 times greater than in the previous calculation. Formula 1 can again be used to determine the flow rate necessary under these operating conditions. f= Q___ = 250,000 = 5.7 gpm k (T) 490 (90)
The flow rate has dropped to about 22% of what was required in the first calculation; 5.7 gpm could be handled by a pipe with the flow velocity remaining uder 4 fps. This tradeoff between temperature drop and flow rate has profound implications that can lower cost and improve control if recognized and exploited. The formulas below apply to the pressure head.
