Heat loss calculation determines heating requirements based on insulation, air leakage, and temperature difference. Critical for system sizing.

Công thức

Conductive loss: Q = U × A × ΔT (sum all surfaces)
Q
1 — 1
U
U value — Variable used in the calculation
A
A value — Variable used in the calculation

Hướng dẫn từng bước

  1. 1Conductive loss: Q = U × A × ΔT (sum all surfaces)
  2. 2Infiltration loss: Q = 1.08 × CFM × ΔT × air density
  3. 3Total loss drives heating system size

Ví dụ có lời giải

đầu vào
House 200 m², U-avg 0.5, ΔT 20K, 500 CFM infiltration
Kết quả
Total loss ~12 kW (heating system needed)
Detailed calc required

Lỗi thường gặp cần tránh

  • Neglecting infiltration (often 30-50% of total loss)
  • Using design temperature without seasonal variation

Câu hỏi thường gặp

Why is air sealing important?

Infiltration loss often exceeds conductive loss; air sealing improves efficiency more than adding insulation.

Does orientation affect heat loss?

Indirectly; south-facing gains solar heat. Window orientation matters more than walls.
