Heating large environments with the traditional systems has always been a problem under the economical point of view.
TRADITIONAL SYSTEMS:
HOT UPWARDS AND COLD DOWNWARDS WITH HUGE DISPERSION RATES
The heat blown by hot air generators tends to flow upwards and to quickly disperse on cold ceilings and windows; on the contrary, the people feel cold at ground level.
During some tests in industrial buildings with an height of 7 meters, the following results were found:
8°C on the floor
12°C at men height
38,5°C on the ceiling.
DESTRATIFIERS
To send hot air towards the ground, several huge fans are applied to the ceiling. This creates a massive air movement which, touching the cold walls, increases the dispersion rate.
It is the same effect that happens when one b lows on hot soup: the thermal exchange is increased and the heat is dispersed. People will be bothered by incredible differences in temperature, and in particular by the hot air that becomes cold and unbearable.
THERMAL STRIPS ON THE CEILING
They are used to heat industrial buildings, but they consume a lot of fuel. Furthermore, the workers have complained to feel their heads too hot, and their feet way cold.
Walking from one room to another there is a big difference in the temperature, and this creates a discomfort sensation in the workers. Also, in the metal-mechanical industries that require high accuracy in their production, the thermal difference can result in an increase in the wasted products.
