A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Study was made of several infrared systems in operation using metered fuel consumption, actual degree days, and heat losses calculated by using ASHRAE methods; data showed that properly designed infrared system will consume 80 to 85% as much fuel during heating season as ASHRAE calculations indicate; total installed capacity required to satisfy design conditions will be 80 to 85% of ASHRAE heat loss calculation; calculation of maximum dew-point temperature and minimum inside roof surface temperature under design conditions.
