Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sheet metal convector panel for a radiator for heating a room, according to the preamble of claim 1, particularly but not necessarily of the radiant plate type or of another type, for example with flat tubes, a process for the realization thereof.
  • DE 71 25 678 discloses such a panel.
  • a convector consisting of a sheet metal panel, generally steel, and applicable to a radiator has been present on the market for some time.
  • the panel has a substantially square-wave bent profile, more or less radial, which defines, on the side turned toward the plate, a series of separate parallel convective channels along which an ascending laminar flow of air is created due to a stack effect.
  • a traditional convector panel In order to properly perform the function it is designed for, a traditional convector panel must have convective channels with a minimum height that is not below a certain threshold value; this may result in a considerable consumption of raw material, with an impact both on the weight and cost of the finished product. Thinner sheet metal tends to be used sometimes to overcome such a drawback, but this expedient in turn has a drawback in that below a certain thickness heat conduction through the thickness of the sheet metal is greatly penalized.
  • the technical task that the present invention sets itself is thus to provide a sheet metal convector panel for a radiator for heating a room, which enables the aforementioned technical drawbacks of the prior art to be eliminated.
  • the technical task is achieved by realizing a sheet metal convector panel for a radiator for heating a room having the features of claim 1.
  • a convector panel 1 made of sheet metal, e.g. steel, for a radiator for heating a room, for example, but not necessarily, of the radiant plate type.
  • the convector panel 1 comprises a plurality of parallel longitudinal channels 2 laterally separated from each other by longitudinal separating walls 3.
  • Each channel 2 comprises, in the longitudinal direction of extension thereof, an alternating succession of first delimiting walls 4, which extend from one side of the separating walls 3, and second delimiting walls 5, which extend from the opposite side of the separating walls 3.
  • the first delimiting walls 4 and second delimiting walls 5 exhibit overall a checkerboard arrangement on the convector panel 1, and, therefore, the first and second delimiting walls 4, 5 of the channels 2 are ordered in an alternating succession also in the direction along which the channels 2 succeed one another.
  • the separating walls 3 are flat and in particular they are all coplanar.
  • the first delimiting walls 4 and second delimiting walls 5 have the same height in a direction orthogonal to the plane in which the separating walls 3 lie.
  • the first delimiting walls 4 and second delimiting walls 5 preferably have the same configuration, and in particular a radial trapezoidal configuration.
  • each first delimiting wall 4 comprises two flat sides 4a and 4b having an opposite angle of inclination relative to the plane in which the separating walls 3 lie, and a flat side 4c parallel to the plane in which the separating walls 3 lie
  • each second delimiting wall 5 comprises two flat sides 5a and 5b having an opposite angle of inclination relative to the plane in which the separating walls 3 lie, and a flat side 5c parallel to the plane in which the separating walls 3 lie.
  • each pair of consecutive delimiting walls 4, 5 has adjacent longitudinal ends 4e, 5e which meet at the separating walls 3 in points P1, P2.
  • the adjacent longitudinal ends 4e, 5e of the consecutive delimiting walls 4, 5 have a mating shape, in particular the end 4e of the first delimiting wall 4 has a straight edge lying in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the channel 2 on the sides 4a and 4b, and a concave edge on the side 4c, while the end 5e of the second delimiting wall 5 has a straight edge lying in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the channel 2 on the sides 5a and 5b, and a convex edge on the side 5c.
  • the convector panel 1 delimits a plurality of secondary channels 7, each delimited by a separating wall 3 and by the sides 5a and 5b of the second delimiting walls 5 which start off from the separating wall 3.
  • the secondary channels 7 have a height that is half that of the main channels 2.
  • the numerical reference 6 indicates the vertical wall of the radiant plate of the radiator, on which the convector panel 1 is applied with its long side in a horizontal direction.
  • the plate generally has a heating fluid circuit comprising a plurality of parallel longitudinal wet channels alternating with dry channels.
  • the wall 6 of the radiant plate closes off one side of the channels 2 and 7.
  • the main channels 2 overlie the wet channels of the plate, whereas the secondary channels 7 overlie the dry channels of the plate.
  • the main channels 2 have a direct exposure to the atmosphere in the longitudinal portions 8 where the second delimiting walls 5 are present, and are laterally in fluid communication with the secondary channels 7 in the longitudinal portions 9 where the first delimiting walls 4 are present.
  • the convective exchange is due to the ascending air flow, which, by virtue of the stack effect, rises up the main vertical channels 2, the secondary vertical channels 7, and the oblique channels that are created as a result of the lateral fluid communication between the main channels 2 and secondary channels 7.
  • the ascending air flow due to the stack effect along the main channels 2 is rendered turbulent by the alternating exposure to the air of the outside atmosphere and the air that flows in the secondary channels 7.
  • the increase in turbulence has a beneficial effect on the efficiency of the convective heat exchange of the convective panel 1.
  • At least the length of the longitudinal portions 8 of the channels 2 exposed to the atmosphere is dimensioned so as to obtain an ascending air flow along the channels 2 having maximum turbulence with a minimum loss of air flow rate.
  • excessively short channel portions 8 would preclude creating an appreciable turbulence in the ascending flow, while excessively long portions 8 would cause a cooling of the ascending air and a consequent loss in air flow rate.
  • this innovative convector panel 1 is capable of achieving the same thermal efficiency, but with considerable savings in raw materials.
  • the convector panel lends itself equally well to a vertical installation rotated by 90°, with the channels 2 oriented in a horizontal direction.
  • first delimiting walls 4 and second delimiting walls 5 of the channels 2 create an obstacle course for the ascending air flow, which determines greater turbulence and ultimately a benefit in terms of convective exchange efficiency.
  • the first delimiting walls 4 intercept and divert the ascending air flow, which in this case has an ascending path that is no longer prevalently straight but rather prevalently zigzag.
