Optimization of Regulation Methods in District Heating Systems

The widely use of the heating system results in the sharp increase of the heating energy consumption. The optimization of the regulation methods for the heating system can efficiently save energy and improve the indoor temperature of the heat users. The traditional regulation methods include quality regulation, quantity regulation, intermittent regulation etc. The actual operation mode was compared with the actual operation mode, which proved that the traditional regulation methods were all static theoretical regulation methods. The regenerative property of the buildings was simulated using the fluent software. A new regulation method which is called quantitative regulation method is proposed in this paper.
