Thermodynamic
Heating Systems
The solar thermodynamic system is unique
to any other type of solar panel system.
It is capable of taking energy from the atmosphere at temperatures as low as
-15°C and it also works at night. It does this by utilising a special refrigerant
instead of water.
These systems are capable of extracting sufficient warmth
to heat a building to a comfortable temperature even on the coldest winter
days.
Even the very best modern gas or oil boiler can only achieve maximum efficiency
levels of 95%, the thermodynamic system has a much higher efficiency (up to
7 times as efficient) this translates into the use of cheap, clean, secure
and
free energy.

The solar thermodynamic systems produce constant
temperatures in the range of 55°C - 60°C
year round. This makes not only for
an ideal storage temperature of our
sanitary water but also an ideal temperature
for heating
our homes.
The thermodynamic system can be retrofitted to existing homes
utilising existing pipe work and infrastructure, causing minimum disruption.
Under floor heating systems are ideal for the upgrade to thermodynamics
where as old radiators may
have to be upgraded or replaced.
Compatible Applications
Our thermodynamic system can alternate between heating the water in your swimming
pool in spring, summer and autumn and heating your house using traditional radiators
or under floor heating during winter. The thermodynamic systems for heating large
volumes of water are suitable for installation in hotels, shopping centres, food
processing factories, restaurants, clinics, schools and municipal government
buildings.

There
are four stages to the process:
1. Aluminium Panels.
A special fluid circulates through the aluminium panels
where energy is absorbed from the ambient temperature transforming the liquid
into a gas.
2.
Compressor.
The gas is then compressed inside
the compressor which causes it to become
very hot.
3.
Hot Water Cylinder.
This hot gas then
flows through a heat exchanger inside
the water cylinder
which in turn heats the water.
4. Expansion Valve.
Finally, the gas goes through
an expansion valve and reverts back to a liquid
which flows back into the aluminium panels and
the process repeats.
