User <strong>Manual</strong> <strong>T*SOL</strong> 13 Appendix<br />

Heating loop HL<br />

A self-contained system for distributing heat from the heat generator to the user, flow and return flow<br />

temperatures are dependent, among others, on the transfer system to rooms to be heated. Two<br />

heating loops with different design temperatures can be defined in <strong>T*SOL</strong>, a high temperature<br />

heating loop for radiators and a low temperature LT heating loop for underfloor heating.<br />

Heating network HN<br />

Concentration of heating requirements in heating output units of varying size in the form of district or<br />

local heating networks.<br />

Heating temperature limit THG<br />

Minimum / maximum outdoor temperatures at which the heating is switched on or off. The heating<br />

temperature limit is dependent on the insulation class of the building.<br />

High temperature circuit<br />

A heating loop with high flow and return temperatures, e.g. for use in radiators and similar.<br />

Incident angle modifiers Kθ<br />

Describe the reflection losses when the sun is not perpendicular to the collector area.<br />

Installation<br />

The installation of the collector array is determined by the → tilt angle and the → orientation angle<br />

(azimuth). From the tilt angle and orientation angle, the → radiation processor calculates the<br />

irradiation on the tilted surface for a specific location.<br />

Investment<br />

Typically long-term, targeted capital commitment to generate future yields. Investment costs here<br />

correspond to the system costs, less any subsidies.<br />

Irradiation model<br />

The values saved in the → climate data for global radiation are divided into diffuse and direct parts<br />

according to the Reindl model.<br />

Irradiation processor<br />

Calculates irradiation on the tilted area from the → installation and → orientation angle of the<br />

collector array, taking into consideration the diffuse and direct parts.<br />

Life (of loan)<br />

Period of time agreed for repayment of a loan.<br />

Lifetime<br />

The period of time stated by the manufacturer in which the system should remain operable.<br />

Load profile [W, kW] [%]<br />

Hot water consumption dependent on time. The calculation is based on the definition of different<br />

daily, weekly and annual profiles.<br />

Loading loop LL<br />

→ Storage charging loop<br />

Loading time [h]<br />

Describes the period required for the storage tank to be loaded fully (supply of energy).<br />

Loan capital<br />

The amount of the loan taken out. It bears interest and must be repayed.<br />
