Influence of forecast control of heat supply on supply temperature

The forecast regulation of heat supply is very important and relevant research topic, because the energy savings may be achieved especially in the existing buildings but also in the new one. This work shows the influence of forecast control on the level of supply temperature of the heating medium. The analyzed multifamily building has a central heating installation with vertical risers in each flat and convective radiators, which are supplied with the heating medium (80/60°C). The field measurements were performed for the period before and after installation of forecast control of heating system in order to show the advantages of this solution.
