Abstract
During the last few years new units consisting of a solar tank and
either an oil fired boiler or a natural gas burner have been
introduced on the Danish market. Three different marketed units -
two based on a natural gas burner and one based on an oil fired
boiler - have been tested in a heat storage test facility in the
laboratory.Three small SDHW systems based on the three above
mentioned units have been installed in single-family houses during
1997. These systems have been equipped with monitoring systems in
such a way that it is possible to determine the thermal
performances and the energy savings of the systems.The measured
results of the laboratory tests and from practice as well as the
experience from practice will be described in the paper. Based on
the investigations it will be elucidated if the units live up to
the expectations, or if there is a need to improve the
unit-designs.
