Abstract
Description
La présente invention a trait aux appareils de chauffage électrique à accumulation, couramment désignés par "accumulateurs", ainsi qu'aux systèmes de chauffage analogues et vise à un meilleur contrôle aussi bien des phases d'accumulation de chaleur ou charge de tels appareils que des phases de restitution de la chaleur emmagasinée.The present invention relates to electric heaters with accumulation, commonly referred to as "accumulators", as well as similar heating systems and aims for better control as well phases of heat accumulation or charging of such devices as phases of restoring the stored heat.
Ce type d'appareil est constitué brièvement d'un empilage de briques réfractaires, de résistances électriques blindées logées dans l'empilage, de canaux de circulation d'air traversant l'empilage et d'un système de turbines forçant de l'air prélevé à l'extérieur dans les canaux pour ensuite le rejeter à l'extérieur et de moyens de commande/contrôle, d'une part, des résistances électriques et, d'autre part, des turbines, en fonction de divers paramètres.This type of device briefly consists of a stack of bricks refractory, armored electrical resistances housed in the stack, air circulation channels through the stack and a turbine system forcing air taken outside into the channels and then rejecting it at the exterior and command / control means, on the one hand, of the resistors electrical and, on the other hand, turbines, depending on various parameters.
Ces appareils sont bien adaptés aux modes de tarification de l'énergie électrique à périodes tarifaires successives au cours d'un cycle de 24 heures.These devices are well suited to energy pricing methods electric at successive tariff periods during a 24 hour cycle.
Généralement la charge de l'empilage de briques ou noyau s'effectue de nuit pendant les heures de tarification dites creuses ou à tarif réduit et la chaleur accumulée la nuit est restituée le jour en fonction des besoins calorifiques du local où est installé l'appareil, ces besoins étant affichés par l'utilisateur à partir de divers systèmes tels que thermostat d'ambiance, commutateur de commande, régulateur, etc...Generally the load of the stacking of bricks or core is carried out at night during so-called off-peak or reduced tariff hours and the heat accumulated at night is returned during the day as needed of the room where the appliance is installed, these needs being displayed by the user from various systems such as room thermostat, control switch, regulator, etc.
Un accumulateur se charge généralement en fonction de la température extérieure au local à chauffer. An accumulator is generally charged according to the temperature outside the room to be heated.
Or, il arrive assez fréquemment, notamment en intersaison, qu'une nuit avec une pointe de froid soit suivie d'une journée relativement clémente. Il s'ensuit que le noyau de l'accumulateur va se charger au-delà de ce qui sera nécessaire pour satisfaire les besoins demandés dans la journée, du fait de la température extérieure relativement clémente.However, it happens quite frequently, especially in the off-season, that one night with a touch of cold be followed by a relatively mild day. he it follows that the core of the accumulator will charge beyond what will be necessary to meet the needs demanded during the day, due to the relatively mild outside temperature.
Les systèmes connus de régulation de la charge/décharge des accumulateurs ne donnent pas satisfaction dans de telles périodes de forte amplitude thermique entre la nuit et le jour.Known systems for regulating the charge / discharge of accumulators are not satisfactory in such periods of high thermal amplitude between night and day.
La présente invention a précisément pour but de proposer une régulation perfectionnée permettant à la fois un meilleur confort de l'usager et une gestion plus économique de l'énergie consommée.The present invention specifically aims to provide a improved regulation allowing both better user comfort and more economical management of the energy consumed.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un procédé de régulation de la
charge et de la décharge d'appareils de chauffage électrique à accumulation
ou analogues et notamment du type comprenant un noyau formé de briques
réfractaires, des résistances électriques de chauffage du noyau, et une
pluralité de turbines de circulation forcée d'air à réchauffer dans des canaux
du noyau, procédé qui consiste
- à déclencher la mise en service d'au moins une turbine lorsque la température mesurée dans le local où se trouve l'appareil descend en dessous d'un premier seuil pré-déterminé par rapport à la température de consigne affichée et en deçà de celle-ci,
- à moduler, à chaque mise en service de la ou des turbines, leur
vitesse de rotation suivant les phases successives ci-après :
- v1 :
- vitesse nominale, pendant une durée prédéterminée ;
- v2 :
- vitesse réduite à un premier niveau pendant une durée prédéterminée,
- v3 :
- vitesse amenée à un deuxième niveau supérieur au premier, pendant une durée prédéterminée,
- v4 :
- vitesse amenée à un troisième niveau intermédiaire entre la vitesse nominale et le deuxième niveau, pendant une durée prédéterminée ;
- - le passage de l'un des régimes v2 et v3 au régime suivant n'étant
effectué que si les deux conditions suivantes sont remplies :
- 1) la température du local est inférieure à celle de consigne ;
- 2) l'élévation de température dans le local pendant la durée de la phase qui vient de s'achever est inférieure à un seuil prédéterminé ;
- - chaque phase v2, v3, v4 étant, si ladite élévation de température, à la fin de la phase considérée, est supérieure audit seuil, recommencée dans les mêmes conditions, un nombre déterminé de fois ;
- - et l'arrêt des turbines étant commandé à tout moment dès que la température du local atteint ladite valeur de consigne affichée ;
- si, à la fin de la succession desdites phases v1 à v4, l'élévation de la température du local pendant le temps cumulé de fonctionnement des turbines est inférieure à un seuil prédéterminé ,
- ou si la température dudit local atteint en descendant un deuxième seuil prédéterminé par rapport à la température de consigne, en deçà dudit premier seuil,
- to trigger the commissioning of at least one turbine when the temperature measured in the room where the device is located drops below a first predetermined threshold relative to the displayed set temperature and below it this,
- to modulate, at each commissioning of the turbine (s), their speed of rotation according to the successive phases below:
- v1:
- nominal speed, for a predetermined duration;
- v2:
- speed reduced to a first level for a predetermined duration,
- v3:
- speed brought to a second level higher than the first, for a predetermined duration,
- v4:
- speed brought to a third intermediate level between the nominal speed and the second level, for a predetermined duration;
- - the transition from one of the v2 and v3 regimes to the next regime being carried out only if the following two conditions are met:
- 1) the room temperature is lower than the set temperature;
- 2) the temperature rise in the room for the duration of the phase which has just ended is less than a predetermined threshold;
- each phase v2, v3, v4 being, if said temperature rise, at the end of the phase considered, is greater than said threshold, restarted under the same conditions, a determined number of times;
- - and the turbine shutdown being controlled at any time as soon as the room temperature reaches said displayed setpoint;
- if, at the end of the succession of said phases v1 to v4, the rise in the temperature of the room during the cumulative operating time of the turbines is less than a predetermined threshold,
- or if the temperature of said room reaches by descending a second predetermined threshold with respect to the set temperature, below said first threshold,
Suivant une variante de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, la relance éventuelle de la charge du noyau pendant la période de restitution est effectuée de préférence au tiers ou aux deux tiers de la puissance de l'appareil.According to a variant implementation of the invention, the relaunch possible charge of the nucleus during the restitution period is preferably carried out at one third or two thirds of the power of the device.
Suivant une autre variante de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, pour un fonctionnement en régime réduit, on envoie à un micro-contrôleur de l'appareil un signal interdisant la mise en service des turbines de restitution, sauf si la température du local descend en dessous d'un troisième seuil par rapport à la température de consigne, inférieur au deuxième seuil, les modalités de charge du noyau demeurant inchangées.According to another variant of implementation of the invention, for a operation at reduced speed, a micro-controller is sent to the device a signal prohibiting the commissioning of the return turbines, unless the room temperature drops below a third threshold by relative to the set temperature, below the second threshold, the charge modes of the nucleus remaining unchanged.
Avantageusement, cette autre variante est mise en oeuvre à l'aide d'un commutateur multi-positions : ARRET-HORS-GEL-REDUIT-CONFORT, de type connu, à fil pilote unique relié au micro-contrôleur de l'appareil, la position REDUIT ayant pour effet d'abaisser les valeurs de consigne et donc d'introduire ledit troisième seuil en dessous duquel la restitution du noyau sera commandée.Advantageously, this other variant is implemented using a multi-position switch: STOP-FREEZE-REDUCED-COMFORT, known type, with a single pilot wire connected to the micro-controller of the device, the REDUCED position having the effect of lowering the set values and therefore to introduce said third threshold below which the restitution of the nucleus will be ordered.
Dans la présente description, on désigne par "appareil" un seul accumulateur ou plusieurs alimentés en parallèle, ceux-ci pouvant être eux-mêmes utilisés concurremment ou en relais avec des appareils de chauffage d'autres types, par exemple convecteurs, panneaux radiants, etc...In the present description, the term "device" means only one accumulator or several supplied in parallel, these being able to be themselves used concurrently or in relay with heaters other types, for example convectors, radiant panels, etc.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages ressortiront de la description qui va suivre d'un mode de mise en oeuvre du procédé de l'invention, description donnée à titre d'exemple uniquement et en regard des dessins annexés sur lesquels :

- Figure 4 is a diagram of an installation comprising several types of electric heating apparatus including an accumulator, controlled from a single pilot wire switch.
Les figures 1 et 2 illustrent le principe de restitution de la chaleur emmagasinée dans le noyau d'un accumulateur, conformément au procédé de l'invention.Figures 1 and 2 illustrate the principle of heat recovery stored in the core of an accumulator, according to the process of the invention.
La charge du noyau s'opère la nuit durant la période de tarification réduite et la restitution de la chaleur emmagasinée s'opère le jour suivant durant la période de tarification normale dite heure pleines suivant immédiatement ladite période de tarification réduite, le cycle charge/restitution s'étalant sur 24 heures. Toutefois, exceptionnellement des cycles de restitution peuvent être nécessaires au maintien de la température ambiante pendant la nuit.The charge of the core takes place overnight during the pricing period reduced and the return of the stored heat takes place the following day during the normal pricing period known as peak hours following immediately said reduced pricing period, the cycle charge / return spanning 24 hours. However, exceptionally restitution cycles may be required to maintain temperature ambient overnight.
Conformément à l'invention, on va définir un premier seuil de température T1, en deçà de la température de consigne Tc affichée par l'utilisateur du local où l'accumulateur est installé, par exemple sur un thermostat d'ambiance incorporé dans l'accumulateur ou fixé à distance (sonde murale). Le seuil T1 est fixé par rapport à la consigne Tc, qui est par exemple 20°C. Dans l'exemple illustré par la figure 1, le seuil T1 est 0,5°C en dessous de Tac.In accordance with the invention, a first temperature threshold T 1 will be defined, below the reference temperature Tc displayed by the user of the room where the accumulator is installed, for example on a room thermostat incorporated in the 'accumulator or fixed remotely (wall sensor). The threshold T 1 is fixed relative to the setpoint Tc, which is for example 20 ° C. In the example illustrated in Figure 1, the threshold T 1 is 0.5 ° C below Tac.
Selon le procédé de l'invention, on va contraindre, en dehors de la période dite heures creuses, la température ambiante du local à demeurer à l'intérieur de la plage 19°,5 C - 20°C par une régulation particulière de la restitution dynamique, c'est-à-dire le contrôle des turbines de l'accumulateur.According to the method of the invention, we will constrain, outside the so-called off-peak period, the ambient temperature of the room to remain at inside the range 19 °, 5 C - 20 ° C by a specific regulation of the dynamic restitution, that is to say the control of the turbines of the accumulator.
En Ta sur la figure 1, on a représenté la courbe d'évolution de ladite température ambiante qui est en train de descendre. En atteignant (point A) le seuil T1, elle va déclencher un processus de mise en fonctionnement des turbines, pendant une période de temps t, jusqu'à ce que la température d'ambiance Ta1 ait atteint la température de consigne Tc (point B).In Ta in FIG. 1, the curve of evolution of said ambient temperature is shown, which is going down. On reaching (point A) the threshold T 1 , it will trigger a process of putting the turbines into operation, for a period of time t, until the ambient temperature Ta 1 has reached the set temperature Tc ( point B).
Pendant la période de temps t, on va piloter les turbines de l'accumulateur suivant le diagramme de la figure 2 illustrant le régime des vitesses des ventilateurs durant la période de temps t.During the time period t, we will drive the turbines of the accumulator according to the diagram in FIG. 2 illustrating the regime of fan speeds during the time period t.
Au démarrage, durant par exemple les 5 premières secondes (td) de la période t, les turbines sont lancées à leur vitesse nominale v1 alimentant le moteur électrique d'entraínement sous la tension nominale de 230 volts. L'intérêt de procéder ainsi est d'assurer un démarrage correct, lequel pourrait être, s'il était réalisé à vitesse réduite, entravé par exemple par un empoussiérage des paliers.At startup, for example during the first 5 seconds (td) of the period t, the turbines are launched at their nominal speed v1 supplying the electric drive motor at nominal voltage of 230 volts. The advantage of doing this is to ensure a correct start, which could be, if carried out at reduced speed, hindered for example by a dusting of bearings.
Au bout des 5 secondes, les turbines sont commutées automatiquement sur une vitesse v2 correspondant à un fonctionnement silencieux, la tension d'alimentation des moteurs des turbines étant de 170 volts.After 5 seconds, the turbines are switched automatically on a speed v2 corresponding to an operation silent, the supply voltage to the turbine engines being 170 volts.
Ce régime de vitesse est maintenu par exemple pendant 5 minutes (t1) et durant ce temps, la température ambiante, illustrée par le segment S1 sur la figure 2, augmente et passe du niveau a au niveau b.This speed regime is maintained for example for 5 minutes (t 1 ) and during this time, the ambient temperature, illustrated by the segment S1 in FIG. 2, increases and goes from level a to level b.
Si au cours de la période t1, la température ambiante s'est élevée d'un niveau inférieur à un seuil pré-déterminé, fixé dans le cas illustré à 0,15°C, les turbines sont commutées sur une vitesse supérieure v3 correspondant à une tension d'alimentation de 190 volts et maintenues à cette vitesse pendant la période de temps t2, fixée également à 5 minutes.If during the period t 1 , the ambient temperature has risen by a level below a predetermined threshold, fixed in the illustrated case at 0.15 ° C., the turbines are switched to a higher speed v3 corresponding at a supply voltage of 190 volts and maintained at this speed during the time period t 2 , also fixed at 5 minutes.
La température ambiante S2 passe du niveau b au niveau c. A ce moment, on mesure l'élévation de température depuis le niveau a et si cette élévation, ramenée à la somme t1 et t2, est inférieure audit seuil ci-dessus, c'est à dire si l'élévation de température est inférieure à 0,3°C ramené à 10 minutes, les turbines sont commutées sur la vitesse v4, intermédiaire entre v1 et v3 et correspondant à une tension d'alimentation de 210 volts et, ce, pour une période de temps t3 de 5 minutes.The ambient temperature S2 changes from level b to level c. At this time, the temperature rise is measured from the level a and if this rise, reduced to the sum t 1 and t 2 , is less than the above threshold, that is to say if the temperature rise is lower than 0.3 ° C reduced to 10 minutes, the turbines are switched to speed v4, intermediate between v1 and v3 and corresponding to a supply voltage of 210 volts and, for a period of time t 3 of 5 minutes.
Pendant ce temps t3, la température ambiante S3 passe du niveau c au niveau d.During this time t 3 , the ambient temperature S3 goes from level c to level d.
Si le niveau b est tel que l'élévation de température ramenée au temps t1 est supérieure audit seuil (0,15°C/5mn), la phase de vitesse v3 n'est pas enclenchée, mais la phase de vitesse v2 est poursuivie pendant une nouvelle période t1. A la fin de cette seconde période t1, on détermine à nouveau si l'élévation de température cumulée sur ces deux périodes t1 et ramenée à 10 minutes est inférieure ou supérieure audit seuil. Si elle est inférieure, on passe alors au régime de vitesse v3. Si elle est supérieure, on poursuit une troisième et dernière fois le même régime de vitesse v2, pendant encore une même période t1. A la fin de la troisième période t1, on passe automatiquement à la phase de vitesse v3.If the level b is such that the temperature rise brought back to time t 1 is greater than said threshold (0.15 ° C / 5 min), the speed phase v3 is not engaged, but the speed phase v2 is continued during a new period t 1 . At the end of this second period t 1 , it is again determined whether the cumulative temperature rise over these two periods t 1 and reduced to 10 minutes is less than or greater than said threshold. If it is lower, then we go to the speed regime v3. If it is higher, the same speed regime v2 is continued a third and last time, for another same period t 1 . At the end of the third period t 1 , we automatically go to the speed phase v3.
Un même processus s'opère éventuellement au niveau c à la fin de la période t2, qui peut être répétée deux fois, dans les mêmes conditions qu'expliqué ci-dessus à propos de la période t1.The same process possibly takes place at level c at the end of period t 2 , which can be repeated twice, under the same conditions as explained above with regard to period t 1 .
Si le niveau de température d à la fin de t3 est celui de la température de consigne Tc, le fonctionnement des turbines n'est pas poursuivi.If the temperature level d at the end of t 3 is that of the set temperature Tc, the operation of the turbines is not continued.
Par contre, si le niveau d est inférieur à Tc, la période t3 sera reconduite une fois ou même deux, dans les mêmes conditions que pour t1 et t2, jusqu'à ce que la température ambiante ait atteint Tc.On the other hand, if the level d is less than Tc, the period t 3 will be extended once or even twice, under the same conditions as for t 1 and t 2 , until the ambient temperature has reached Tc.
L'installation bien entendu sera conçue et réglée de façon que normalement la période t3 n'ait pas à être renouvelée, sauf dans des circonstances exceptionnelles telles que par exemple l'ouverture prolongée d'une fenêtre du local.The installation of course will be designed and adjusted so that normally the period t 3 does not have to be renewed, except in exceptional circumstances such as for example the prolonged opening of a window of the room.
Bien entendu, à tout moment à l'intérieur de la période t, que les périodes partielles t1, t2, t3 soient uniques ou répétées, si la température ambiante atteint Tc, les turbines sont immédiatement arrêtées. Of course, at any time within the period t, whether the partial periods t 1 , t 2 , t 3 are unique or repeated, if the ambient temperature reaches Tc, the turbines are immediately stopped.
L'incrémentation des tensions d'alimentation des moteurs des turbines est un moyen simple de régulation des vitesses de ces dernières.Increasing the supply voltages of the turbine engines is a simple way to regulate their speeds.
Plusieurs techniques connues sont utilisables pour ce faire, telles que des résistances chutrices, ou la prévision de plusieurs bobinages sur les moteurs, ou encore l'envoi de salves d'ondes d'alimentation avec des périodes suffisamment courtes pour éviter les à-coups.Several known techniques can be used to do this, such as falling resistances, or the forecast of several windings on the motors, or sending bursts of supply waves with sufficiently short periods to avoid jolts.
Toutes les turbines ou simplement une partie de celles-ci peuvent être mises en fonctionnement au cours de la période t. On peut aussi ne mettre en service qu'une partie des turbines avec une rotation pour mieux répartir dans le noyau le prélèvement de calories.All turbines or just a part of them can be put into operation during period t. We can also not put in service only part of the turbines with a rotation to better distribute in the nucleus the removal of calories.
Les valeurs données ci-dessus aux températures Tc, T1 ainsi que le gradient de température par rapport au temps (0,15°C/5 mn) peuvent bien entendu varier.The values given above at temperatures Tc, T 1 as well as the temperature gradient over time (0.15 ° C / 5 min) can of course vary.
En revenant à la figure 1, on observera qu'après le point B, si la température ambiante Ta2 redescend jusqu'au seuil T1 (point C), on va entamer une nouvelle période t' durant laquelle va s'opérer un pilotage des turbines identique à celui réalisé durant la période t jusqu'à ce que la température ambiante Ta3 remonte à Tc (point D).Returning to FIG. 1, it will be observed that after point B, if the ambient temperature Ta 2 falls again to the threshold T 1 (point C), we will start a new period t ′ during which piloting will take place. turbines identical to that produced during period t until the ambient temperature Ta 3 rises to Tc (point D).
A tous moments, d'autres périodes (t") de restitution dynamique pourront s'établir, tant que l'on se trouve toujours dans la période dite d'heures pleines.At all times, other periods (t ") of dynamic restitution can be established, as long as we are still in the so-called period full hours.
Si, au cours de cette période, la température ambiante Ta4 venait, pour une raison ou pour une autre et en dépit de la mise en route du régime de restitution dynamique conforme à l'invention, à descendre à un seuil T2 prédéterminé par rapport à la température de consigne Tc et en deçà à la fois de cette dernière et du seuil T1, la relance du noyau serait effectuée. Ce seuil T2 est par exemple fixé à 2°C en dessous de Tc.If, during this period, the ambient temperature Ta4 comes, for one reason or another and despite the start of the dynamic restitution regime in accordance with the invention, to drop to a threshold T 2 predetermined with respect to at the set temperature Tc and below both the latter and the threshold T 1 , the core will be restarted. This threshold T 2 is for example fixed at 2 ° C below Tc.
Lorsque la température d'ambiance Ta4 atteint ce seuil T2 (point E), la relance du noyau va s'effectuer en fonction de la tarification, c'est à dire au tiers ou aux deux tiers de la puissance en tarification pleine et à pleine puissance en tarification réduite. When the ambient temperature Ta 4 reaches this threshold T 2 (point E), the revival of the core will be carried out according to the pricing, that is to say one third or two thirds of the power at full pricing and at full power with reduced pricing.
Ceci permettra conjointement à la mise en route des turbines conformément à l'invention, la remontée de la température ambiante Tas jusqu'à la valeur de consigne Tc.This will jointly enable the start-up of the turbines in accordance with the invention, the rise in ambient temperature Tas up to the setpoint Tc.
Sur la figure 1, on a également représenté un troisième seuil T3 de température, déterminé par rapport à la consigne Tc et en deçà à la fois de cette dernière et la température (T2) de relance du noyau.In FIG. 1, a third temperature threshold T 3 has also been shown, determined with respect to the setpoint Tc and below both the latter and the temperature (T 2 ) for reviving the core.
Ce seuil T3, dénommé consigne de nuit, est par exemple fixé à 3°C en dessous de Tc. Il n'est utilisé qu'en période de tarification réduite, pour mettre en service les turbines de restitution si la température ambiante venait à descendre au seuil T3.This threshold T 3 , called the night setpoint, is for example fixed at 3 ° C below Tc. It is only used during a reduced pricing period, to commission the restitution turbines if the ambient temperature drops to the threshold T 3 .
Plus précisément, ceci revient à abaisser de 3°C les seuils Tc, T1 en sorte que si la température ambiante baisse de plus de 0,5°C par rapport au nouveau seuil (17°C), on va déclencher le processus de restitution selon les modalités expliquées plus haut, c'est à dire le pilotage des vitesses des turbines en sorte de maintenir ladite température dans la plage 16°5C-17°C.More precisely, this amounts to lowering the thresholds Tc, T 1 by 3 ° so that if the ambient temperature drops by more than 0.5 ° C compared to the new threshold (17 ° C), we will trigger the process of restitution according to the methods explained above, that is to say the control of the speeds of the turbines so as to maintain said temperature in the range 16 ° 5C-17 ° C.
On va maintenant expliquer le mode de charge du noyau conforme à l'invention en se référant à la figure 3.We will now explain the charge mode of the kernel in accordance with the invention with reference to Figure 3.
Sur cette figure, on a représenté le diagramme du taux (en pourcentage de charge nominale) de charge du noyau en fonction des temps cumulés sur 24 heures de fonctionnement des turbines en dehors des périodes de tarification réduite.This figure shows the rate diagram (in percentage of nominal load) core load as a function of time accumulated over 24 hours of turbine operation outside of reduced pricing periods.
Conformément à l'invention, on pondère le temps de fonctionnement des turbines en fonction de leur vitesse de rotation en affectant un coefficient à chaque vitesse (ou tension d'alimentation du moteur).In accordance with the invention, the operating time is weighted turbines according to their rotation speed by assigning a coefficient at each speed (or motor supply voltage).
Au cours de la période de tarification pleine, on totalise les durées partielles, ainsi pondérées (td, t1, t2, t3) de toutes les périodes (t, t', t"), de fonctionnement des turbines et on détermine un abaque (figure 3) faisant correspondre à un nombre donné d'heures de fonctionnement des turbines un taux de charge du noyau. Le taux est maximal, par exemple 100%, pour une durée cumulée de marche des turbines maximal (par exemple 11 heures). During the full pricing period, the partial durations, thus weighted (td, t 1 , t 2 , t 3 ) of all the periods (t, t ', t "), of the turbines operating are totaled and we determine an abacus (figure 3) corresponding to a given number of hours of operation of the turbines a rate of charge of the core. The rate is maximum, for example 100%, for a maximum cumulative duration of operation of the turbines (for example 11 hours ).
Ainsi, si les turbines, un jour donné, ont peu fonctionné, ce qui signifie que la demande de chaleur a été réduite, par exemple parce que la température extérieure était clémente, alors, la charge pendant la nuit suivant ce jour n'aura pas besoin d'être importante. Son taux sera alors adapté aux besoins présumés, basés sur ceux réellement constatés la veille, à partir de l'abaque de la figure 3.So if the turbines on a given day did not work very well, which means that the heat demand has been reduced, for example because the the outside temperature was mild, so the load overnight this day need not be important. Its rate will then be adapted to presumed needs, based on those actually observed the day before, from the abacus of figure 3.
Il est à noter que les valeurs indiquées sur cet abaque peuvent être bien entendu modifiées en fonction de la puissance du ou des appareils sous contrôle et en fonction de la puissance nécessaire au chauffage du local (puissance installée par rapport aux déperditions).It should be noted that the values indicated on this chart can be of course modified according to the power of the device (s) control and depending on the power required to heat the room (installed power in relation to losses).
Par ailleurs, il est également à signaler qu'avantageusement et afin d'obtenir une précision optimale du niveau de charge du noyau accumulateur, la température de ce noyau sera mesurée à l'aide d'un thermocouple au contact du noyau de l'accumulateur et non comme cela se fait habituellement dans les appareils existants, à l'aide d'un organe de mesure placé contre ou dans l'isolant thermique qui entoure le noyau et qui ne contrôle qu'une température "image" approximative.Furthermore, it should also be noted that advantageously and in order to obtain optimum accuracy of the charge level of the accumulator core, the temperature of this nucleus will be measured using a thermocouple at contact of the accumulator core and not as it is done usually in existing devices, using a measuring device placed against or in the thermal insulation which surrounds the core and which does not controls only an approximate "image" temperature.
