In hydronic proportional balancing, the key idea is to set circuit balancing devices so that (conceptual) what holds across parallel branches at design (or set) condition?

Choices

  • (A) All branch DP equal to 0 in all nodes
  • (B) Tower approach always 5F
  • (C) Design flow share or ΔT/flow ratio in each path relative to the index run, to avoid starving distant terminals
  • (D) NPSH of fan only

Correct answer: (C)

Design flow share or ΔT/flow ratio in each path relative to the index run, to avoid starving distant terminals

Explanation

GPM balance: set balancing valves+indexing paths.
