Assignee: HARVEST THERMAL, INC.
Field: Thermal processes and apparatus (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC F  G | IPC F  G

Claim 0:
1. A hydronic system, comprising:
a forced air heat delivery component configured to control flow of air in the hydronic system;
a control unit for managing a rate of heat delivery across two spatially separated points in the hydronic system, the control unit being operatively coupled with the forced air heat delivery component, the control unit comprising:
a communication module configured to:
receive at least a first temperature and a second temperature of a fluid from a first point and a second point, respectively in the hydronic system, wherein the first point and the second point correspond to the two spatially separated points; and
receive a flow rate of the fluid across the two spatially separated points;

a memory comprising stored instructions; and
a processing module communicably coupled to the memory and the communication module, the processing module configured to execute the stored instructions to cause the hydronic system to perform at least:
calculating an actual rate of heat delivery in the two spatially separated points based, at least in part, on flow rate and temperature difference of the fluid in the two spatially separated points;
determining a heat delivery rate difference between the actual rate of heat delivery and a target rate of heat delivery; and
adapting at least the flow rate of the fluid flowing between the two spatially separated points and operating the forced air heat delivery component for adapting a rate of the flow of air in the hydronic system, based, at least in part, on the heat delivery rate difference to maintain the target rate of heat delivery.
