This means, that it is necessary to provide as much heat as has leaked through the insulation into the environment. It is the same with maintaining the operational temperature of a medium. If we place the right heating cable under the insulation, the temperature will remain stable. Only rarely is the heat supplied to raise the temperature of the medium. In any case though, it is necessary to use the right thermal insulation. Thickness and quality affect the fixed performance of the heating cable and operating costs.
Heating in industry
Based on the nature of the heating we distinguish:
- protection from frost and freezing,
- condensation prevention,
- operational temperature maintenance,
- heating (raising the temp. of the medium, heat supply).
Apart from pipelines, heating can apply on other components:
- fixtures and exchangers,
- tanks and reservoirs,
- dopravní cesty materiálu (např. násypky, svodky, redlery, šnekové dopravníky apod.) material transport means (scuttles, ??, ??, worm conveyors).
Heating in the civil sphere
- anti-frost protection (duct, sewage or fire pipelines)
- udržování teploty (např. rozvody TUV, tuková kanalizace). temperature maintenance (distribution, oil sewage)
We also deal with pipeline, fixture and eventually tank and reservoir heating in the civil sphere.
