Since the heat capacity of the heat transfer fluid depends
on the concentration of glycol, the proportion of the glycol/
water-mixture has to be determined first.
Determining the ratio for known volumes:
If the volumes of water and glycol in the system are known,
the value in vol. % is calculated as follows:
Vol % = (Vg : (VW + Vg)) x 100
VG: volume of glycol
VW: volume of water
Example:
if 15 liters of water and 20 liters of glycol are used in the
solar circuit, then follows:
Vol % = (20 : (15 + 20)) x 100 = 57
Determining the ratio for unknown volumes:
RESOL refractomter:
In order to analyze the system, a small amount of fluid has to
be withdrawn from the solar circuit and applied to the prism
surface of the refractometer. Hold the pointy end against the
light and turn the ocular until the borderlines become visible.
The borderlines indicate the freezing temperature. In a table
on the receptacle of the heat transfer fluid, the value for the
vol.-% corresponding to the temperature value, is shown.
When the RESOL WMZ calorimeter is commissioned for
the first time or after a reset, it will run a commissioning
menu. The commissioning menu leads the user through the
most important adjustment channels needed.
