lämpövaraajien
Lämpövaraajat, often translated as thermal storage tanks or buffer tanks, are integral components in modern heating systems. Their primary function is to store excess heat generated by a heat source, such as a boiler, heat pump, or solar thermal collector, for later use. This stored heat can then be released to maintain a desired temperature in the building, even when the heat source is temporarily inactive or operating at a lower capacity.
The design of a lämpövaraaja typically involves a well-insulated tank, usually made of steel, filled with water.
The use of lämpövaraajat offers several benefits. They can improve the efficiency of heating systems by allowing
