Convectors with fans

Thermal power embedded convectors with fans, reduced to one meter in length, is within approximately 100 watts when the fan is turned off (the device warms the room by natural convection) up to 1200 watts or more if the fans operate at maximum speed. (Sam fan consumes per hour only a few tens of watts of electricity.)
Convectors this group are used for both main and auxiliary heating for various purposes, particularly in cases where the heat output devices with natural convection is not enough. Sometimes this equipment is used to generate cold air curtain at the surface of windows, under which it is installed. The veil prevents heat transfer to the air space from sun-warmed surface of glass and frames. This so-called “light” air-conditioning, perceived exclusively in an area of convectors. In practice, it is only used in cottages, equipped with central air conditioning system, if the source of cold water (chiller, water well or other) with a temperature of 6-8 ° C, as well as possibilities of draining. If you embedded in the floor convector with fan logically give further attention to the quality of performance of fans and heat capacity of regulatory systems.
