Abstract:
A method for operating and/or monitoring an HVAC system ( 10 ), in which a medium circulating in a primary circuit ( 26 ) flows through at least one energy consumer ( 11, 12, 13 ), the medium entering with a volume flow (φ) through a supply line ( 14 ) into the energy consumer ( 11, 12, 13 ) at a supply temperature (T v ) and leaving the energy consumer ( 11, 12, 13 ) at a return temperature (T R ) via a return line ( 15 ), and transferring heat or cooling energy to the energy consumer ( 11, 12, 13 ) in an energy flow (E). A control unit ( 21 ) adaptively operates the system by empirically determining the dependence of the energy flow (F) and/or the temperature difference ΔT between supply temperature (T v ) and return temperature (T R ) on the volume flow (φ) for the energy consumers ( 11, 12, 13 ) in a first step, and by operating and/or monitoring the HVAC system ( 10 ) according to the determined dependency or dependencies in a second step.

Claim (Index 2):
The method, as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein\n the dependence of the flow of energy (E) on the volumetric flow rate (\u03c6) is determined empirically at a start of the operation in a newly installed HVAC system ( 10 ), and the HVAC system ( 10 ) or more specifically the individual components are changed or replaced, when the empirically determined dependences make it necessary.
