Residential combustion heating system performance analysis study
Abstract
In this study, the operation of residential, gas-fired combustion heating equipment and performance limitation including an assessment of energy conserving, cost minimizing alternatives, new designs and controls, were analyzed. In addition to analysis of the parametric sensitivity of heating system performance, the authors have defined a number of new concepts that provide an improved system performance description (heat exchanger symmetry, energy distribution factor, cost efficiency, life cycle cost efficiency and rusting time).
