The Thermodynamic System joins two incomplete technologies – the heat pump and the solar collectors.
Heat pumps are quite efficient but the heat they produce varies according to changes in the temperature of the environment. Thermal solar collectors, on the other hand, are the best source of heat on hot and sunny days, yet they are totally inefficient when the sun is out.
The thermodynamic solar technology manages to surpass the limitations of both the heat pump and solar collectors.
The science behind thermodynamic panels
In a nutshell, the fluid that runs inside the solar panel evaporates when capturing the heat from the sun, wind, rain and surrounding air. In this process the fluid gains heat in a more favourable way than a heat pump. After that, the heat is transferred to an exchanger. This is done with the help of a small compressor which then transfers the heat to the water. In the final staged of the process, the fluid cools down and the circuit is repeated.
- Captures heat regardless of weather conditions
- Almost non-existent maintenance
- No energy-consuming defrost cycles
- Super-efficient low consumption compressor
- Low-temperature central heating without chimneys and gases, completely environmentally friendly
- The solar panels are light, discreet and can be installed almost anywhere
- No ducts and no fans
- No need to install support equipment
- Capacities from 1000 up to 6000 litres
- Small dimension indoor unit
Since a thermodynamic system is able to harness a variety of renewable energy sources, such as the sun, wind and rain, it represents the best solution to the reduction of energy consumption. With no greenhouse gas emissions, thermodynamic solar systems provide a major environmental benefit.
A single system can efficiently and effectively provide the heat for both the central heating and domestic hot water. To maximise the investment, in the warmer months, when central heating is no longer needed, the very same system can be deployed to heat, for example, the pool.
Ideal for high demand water consumption places
Hotels | Hospitals | Gyms | Industries
The energy consumption of the thermodynamic system is fairly minimal. There are no ventilators to help with the evaporation process or defrost cycles, meaning no extra energy consumption. Heat pumps, however, do come with all these extra mechanisms, and thus consume energy and require annual servicing. Things that do not apply to thermodynamic solar systems.
Save up to 80% on water heating
Thermodynamic water heather can help you make huge savings on you water heating energy bills.
Interestingly enough, thermodynamic systems, when accompanied by correctly sized PV panels, will utilise their energy to run independently of your main electricity supply. It may also mean, that your building as a whole will operate with net-zero carbon emissions taking you completely off-grid.
They can also improve your EPC rating and reduce your carbon footprint
