AI Technical Summary
In non-parallel water tank systems, the water pump will preferentially draw water from the nearest water tank, resulting in unbalanced water flow and unstable water pressure. Especially when the boiler combustion demand changes, the existing system's switching capability is insufficient, leading to extremely unstable water pressure in the water pump, which poses safety hazards and boiler surge.
Design a flow self-balancing system including a buffer tank and piping components. By connecting the buffer tank and the circulating tank, the water flow is automatically adjusted using the pressure difference to ensure a stable pump outlet flow. The system is equipped with a level gauge and a controller for intelligent control to achieve adaptive flow balance.
It achieves stable pump outlet flow under various operating conditions, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the water tank system, avoiding water pressure fluctuations and boiler surge, and improving the system's automatic adjustment capability.
