The system "Smart Home" with their own hands. Heating system in a smart home
The term “smart home”, which has become customary, should be understood not only as a cottage, country house, or cottage. City apartment, office, as well as many other types of premises are well suited for this understanding. If we consider the heating system from this point of view, then with this approach to it it is necessary to implement several fundamental principles. When we say smart home - heating in this case should provide comfortable living conditions or cost savings on their maintenance.
What could be the heating?
It has long been known that comfort is not free. Any attempts to provide additional convenience or get rid of unnecessary worries through the use of automation will mean an increase in costs. However, regardless of our desire, for a smart home, heating plays an almost decisive role in creating comfortable conditions, and the cost of maintaining it largely depends on its organization.
In cases where the equipment used, automation and control means are chosen and used correctly, the heating system — it will heat the smart house, apartment or garage — will not only be able to maintain the specified conditions and provide fuel savings.
First of all, this is achieved by the interaction of the heating boiler with the control center. In addition to having its own security features, this boiler has a communication interface, thanks to which it is possible to realize smart heating of a country house. In the simplest form, it should be understood that the smart home controls the heating depending on the temperature reached in the room by the signals from the sensors.
The best option for such a control is to adjust the temperature of the coolant. However, with all the advantages of such a construction of heating, there are other, more effective approaches to the organization of heating. Today, weather-dependent heating control is considered promising.
How is it organized
With this approach, an external temperature meter is also used in addition to the room temperature sensor. In principle, the weather-dependent heating controller will work with one external sensor, but using two allows you to achieve a more accurate maintenance of the mode and even realize the system self-adaptation.
The weather-dependent controller of the heating system operates on the basis of the programmed correspondence curve of the coolant temperature to the external conditions. In its simplest form, it looks like this - if it gets colder outside, the temperature of the water in the system rises, if it is warmer, it decreases.
One of the base points of the weather regulation of heating can use the temperature plus twenty degrees - with it, the coolant temperature is taken to be the ambient temperature, while the heating is actually turned off.
Such an approach to the organization of heating should also take into account the zonal regulation, i.e. in some places, the temperature should be additionally adjusted in relation to that determined by the external sensor. If, for example, a large number of people gathered in one of the rooms, due to which it became hotter, then the system records a local temperature increase relative to that established by the weather heating controller, and performs correction in this zone.
What seemed fantastic before, today is increasingly becoming a reality. A smart home is no longer just a dream, and not even an inheritance of the elect. Almost everyone can afford to use his systems. "Smart" systems - heating, can be installed either all together or separately, sequentially.
The “smart” heating system builds its work on the basis of man-defined modes:
1. Temperature conditions in various rooms. A person can set the minimum temperature at which the heating turns on, and the maximum at which it turns off. For residential premises it can be, respectively, 20 and 22 degrees, and for utility rooms 15-17 or even 5-6. At the same time, the automation system can simultaneously handle a large number of rooms. With a large number of them, the house can be divided into zones - residential, children's, household, etc.
2. Temporary modes. It makes no sense to keep the heat constant. Heating smart home can be programmed to work more efficiently. For example, reduce the temperature and keep it at the lowest possible level during certain periods:
when the tenants are not at home, for example, from 8:00 to 17:00 - 5 degrees, and by arrival to heat up to 20
during sleep, reduce the temperature by 2-3 degrees, which contributes to a deeper and more productive rest
3. Modes of operation of various groups of heating equipment, when there are several of them - batteries, heated floors, infrared panels. At the same time, it is possible to regulate the temperature not only in different rooms, but also within one, for example, the vertical distribution of heat.
Especially for
The achievements of progress and the wonders of modern technologies make our life easier every day, doing for us various types of routine work. Among all these useful devices, a separate item is the “smart home” system, which seemed to have come to us from the screens of science fiction films about the distant future. Depending on the needs and wishes of the owners, the smart home can be filled with a variety of convenient functions. For example, he is able to reliably protect a home from fire, flood, gas leakage and robbery’s encroachment (we told about automatic security systems in detail), save energy, manage multimedia devices, automatically turn on different lighting scenarios depending on the time of day, water the plants and even pay bills for utilities on the internet! Today we will talk in detail about another useful and highly demanded feature of the “smart home” - the automatic climate control system. It can be installed both separately and in combination with other functions of the “smart home”.
For comfort and healthy living, it is necessary to maintain the correct temperature with a regular inflow of fresh air in all residential and business premises. For a person, not only too cold spaces are dangerous, in which it is easy to catch a cold, but also a long stay in rooms with excessively high temperatures that negatively affect our health and well-being. The most favorable for residential premises is the temperature range from 22 ° C to 25 ° C.
With the help of modern automatic systems of “smart home” it is easy to set up comfortable conditions in each separate room, depending on the purpose of the room and individual preferences of family members. For example, in the kitchen, it is not necessary to maintain too high a temperature, because the heating devices during cooking make large amounts of heat into the air, additionally raising it by several degrees. And if the kitchen is already too warm, then during work there it will quickly become unbearably hot. The same applies to the bedroom: it is much more useful to sleep in a cool room, because the heat and lack of fresh air adversely affect sleep and general well-being. A warmer temperature is desirable to maintain in the bathroom, nursery and living room.
To effectively solve all these important tasks, as well as to achieve significant savings of money and resources, you can use automatic climate control systems of the “smart home”, which include three main systems: air conditioning, ventilation and heating. With the help of sensors installed in various premises, the controller of the “smart home” analyzes and regulates the temperature, sending signals to the servo drives of heating devices, ventilation systems and air conditioners. Separate control panels are installed in each room in order to set the required temperature manually if necessary.
Depending on the time of day and the presence or absence of people, different temperature scenarios can be automatically maintained in different rooms. For example, at night in the bedroom you can lower the temperature by 2-3 degrees for a more comfortable and healthy sleep. In order not to spend extra money on heating, in those rooms where there are no people, at night the temperature is lowered to 16-18 ° C.
Economical heating of a suburban home during the absence of owners is also a very important task that a smart home can handle. In the cold season, in order to avoid engineering communications from the cold, it is necessary to constantly maintain a low positive temperature, at which unnecessary funds are not spent on the full heating of the empty building. A few hours before arrival, using a mobile device, you can give the smart home a command to raise the temperature in all rooms to a comfortable value, so as not to freeze in anticipation until the heaters turned on upon arrival sufficiently warm the house, as it usually happens at summer cottages.
Economical solution
The main difficulty in creating a smart home climate system is its high cost and the need to design it even before installing climate control and heating equipment.
However, there is a more simple and affordable option to create a "smart" climate control - to assemble an automatic system on your own using special electronic devices that will help you manage the climate conveniently and efficiently, both inside the house and at a distance. These can be controllers and GSM modems that control the operation of heating systems and air conditioners, as well as allow monitoring the temperature in different rooms with the help of special sensors. Prices for such controllers and modems start at between 6,000 and 10,000 rubles, but sensors and other additional equipment will be required to assemble the entire system.
Today, wealthy citizens of our country seek to organize their homes in such a way that everything in it is as convenient and functional as possible. Many of them in their Smart-house acquire equipment for managing boilers, and thus not only achieve safety and comfort, but also follow the trends of economical consumption of resources that are promoted throughout the world civilized society.
Therefore, by deciding to buy a heating control system for a smart home, you are investing money profitably, in order to further save. Judge for yourself, according to data collected by MiDart in Smart Homes, there is a reduction in operating costs and energy costs by about a third, a decrease in water costs by more than 40%, and in space heating by half. Not to mention the fact that according to statistics, there is a significant reduction in insurance risks.
Due to the fact that in our country very often there are all sorts of failures in the operation of gas networks, you just desperately need such a thing as a heating remote control system for a smart home. But on the other hand, if you decide to do autonomous heating in your house or apartment, and have ordered specialized control of boilers, then be prepared for the fact that as a result of voltage drops there may be failures in the operation of automation. To avoid such incidents, it is necessary to install a powerful voltage stabilizer even at the engineering system development stage.
The heating control system in a smart home is organized in such a way that, due to the set temperature thresholds, the burner in double-circuit boilers is turned off when the temperature reaches 61 degrees so as not to cause heating above 65 degrees - the temperature at which hardness falls.
