Conventionally, a solar water heater and a hot water storage tank are connected through a circulation path, heated hot water is circulated and stored in the hot water storage tank, and hot water is taken out as needed and used by replenishing that amount of fresh water. In order to prevent the temperature of the hot water in the hot water tank from dropping, a latent heat storage capsule (hereinafter referred to as a "PCM capsule") or a rock, etc. is placed in the hot water tank in order to prevent the hot water from becoming hot during sunlight. The heated water temperature is stored and the heat is radiated during times when heating is not being performed, such as at night.

By the way , in a conventional heat storage tank, as shown in FIG. When the difference exceeds a certain level, the circulation pump P is activated to perform heat storage control, but the volume of hot water in the heat storage tank is reduced by the volume occupied by the heat storage material. Due to poor thermal conductivity, the hot water reaches the bottom of the heat storage tank without imparting sufficient heat to the heat storage material, and from there it is likely to be circulated back to the heat collector A′, which causes the temperature to drop at an early stage. T 1 and temperature T 2
The difference in temperature becomes small, and the control device that detects this stops the pump P, and even though sufficient high-temperature water can be obtained during sunshine, the pump stops early and the improvement in heat storage efficiency is hindered. There was a problem when there was a problem.

That is, the heat storage control method for a heat storage tank of the present invention is a heat storage tank configured to put a heat storage material into a hot water storage tank that is connected to a heating device through a heat medium circulation path, and to store heat of a heat medium sent from the heating device. In the tank, a heat storage capsule with a built-in heat sensing sensor is placed at the location where the heat storage material has the lowest heat among the heat storage material distribution in the hot water storage tank, and information from this heat sensing sensor and the temperature of the heating medium outlet of the heating device are placed. This is characterized in that the comparison value is used to control the operation of the heat medium circulation pump.

When hot water is circulated between the solar water heater and the hot water storage tank, the heat is gradually stored in the heat storage material, but as mentioned above, due to the poor thermal conductivity of the heat storage material, the hot water is not sufficiently exchanged. has a strong tendency to flow from the hot water storage tank toward the circulation outlet. Since the circulation outlet of this hot water storage tank is usually provided at the bottom of the hot water storage tank, the water temperature at the bottom of the hot water storage tank rises relatively quickly.

However, since the circulation pump is controlled by temperature information from a temperature sensor built into the heat storage material, it is controlled only by the temperature inside the heat storage capsule, regardless of the temperature of the circulating heat medium. The circulating pump continues to circulate hot water until the temperature inside the material has risen sufficiently.

This allows heat to be effectively stored without being wasted.
