Problems solved by technology

This leads to a number of disadvantages: in some instances, the movement of the motor of the valve may cause an audibly uncomfortable noise, especially at night when the user is sleeping; moreover, these movements of the motor of the valve reduce the life of the valve itself, especially the battery life
More importantly, prior art systems do not provide effective control over the maintenance of the temperature of a room or area at a desired temperature

Embodiment Construction

[0035] The invention has been described as a self-regulating valve fitted to radiators and boilers of hot water heating systems, but the self-regulating valve can be similarly applied to multiple Any heating system with radiators and heat pumps. The invention can also be applied to any cooling system, which generally includes a cooling generator. When cooling is considered, the heat transfer fluid flows from the cold source to the heat sink.

[0036] Furthermore, the invention has been described in terms of a thermostatic radiator valve 21 in the field of heating, but the invention relates more generally to thermostatic radiators configured to regulate the flow of heat transfer fluid from a thermal energy generator into a heat exchanger based on a temperature set point Valve (TRV), the thermal energy generator and heat exchanger configured to heat or cool the room at room temperature, said TRV comprising: a communication link to a processing unit that can be connected to a th...

Abstract

The invention concerns a thermostatic valve (TRV, 21), comprising an aperture (5) to adjust a flow of transfer fluid from a thermal energy generator (10) entering a heat exchanger (11), the TRV (21) comprising: a communication link (31) to a processing unit; an input interface configured to acquire at least one TRV-defined temperature setpoint; wherein the TRV (21) is further configured to calculate a first aperture setting of the aperture (5) to be set, the first aperture setting being defined as a function of a temperature configuration model available at the processing unit and environmental parameters. The invention also concerns a method for defining a valve aperture.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of intelligent thermal management of domestic consumer devices, in particular, thermal control within a room or house or building. The present invention relates to a system and method for defining a valve aperture of a thermostatic radiator valve. Although many of the features of the present invention will be described with respect to a residential environment, it should be understood that these features are generally applicable to office and industrial building applications or the like. Background technique [0002] Over the past few decades, many products have been introduced in order to control heat emitters in a room or house. The traditional solution, still widespread, is to perform room-by-room (or zone-by-zone) thermal management inside buildings. Each heat emitter is equipped with a valve, or more generally, a flux regulating device that regulates the heat flux inside the heat emitter. The valves ar...
