Heat Loss Express

Purpose

The primary objective of Hydronic Explorer 2 is to help you design a heating system that will provide the required heating comfort for a specific job. The first step towards this goal is to determine the structure’s heat loss (Btu/hour). Construction, outside temperature, and indoor temperature are significant factors in this calculation. The second step is selecting the proper boiler and radiation that will compensate for the heat loss and maintain the indoor temperature at the required level.

Heat Loss Express

The Heat Loss Express screen is your main work area. It is divided into three sections: the menu bar, the toolbar, and the Data Entry Area. You choose commands from the menu bar or the toolbar, and you enter room data in the Data Entry Area. This area also displays the heat loss calculations based on your data and helps you select the proper heating equipment.
