Energy-optimized design and control of pumps and motors
The purpose of the project is to produce the technical basis for dimensioning and developing motor/pump systems, so that the total concept is energy-optimized for domestic heating.
Project description
The project includes theoretical and experimental demonstrations through simulation and practical tests of motors inclusive of electronic control and hydraulic design of pumps. The motor/pump system is tested partly in central heating systems, and partly in boilers. The expected result is essential electricity savings for pumps for domestic heating. Today the electricity comsumption is 2 or 3 times as high as necessary, and at present it represents about 14% of the electricity consumption of a residence
