Thermo-regulating magnetic coverings for storing and releasing lost heat

近一半的能源消耗用于生产热水和为我们居住的房屋供暖。很多能源被浪费了，因为我们家里的能源控制不好。该项目的重点是为家庭和工业节省热量的新产品的制造。我们的新产品是具有温度调节性能的磁性装饰盖板。温度调节磁罩可以很容易地应用和包裹任何钢表面，在高温下节约热能，在低温下释放热能。一个简单的方法就是用房子里的散热器来证明这一点。每个锅炉都有不同的加热程序，交替加热和保持时间。当锅炉开着时，暖气片里的热水加热了房子。但是，当锅炉关闭时，没有外部加热。在散热器表面应用具有温度调节特性的磁盖板，可以储存热量，并在锅炉关闭时（通常在夜间）自动释放热量。这项技术将使房子全天保持温暖，从而节省煤气和电费。磁性片可以很容易地从散热器表面附着或移除，因此不需要特别安装。同样的方法可以应用于工业中，从热水管道产生的余热中加热室内工厂区域。该项目结合了Radwraps现有的盖板生产技术和利物浦大学对这种新型储热材料的研究成果。材料由用于储热的封装相变材料和外壳组成，外壳防止封装相变材料的释放，并在磁盖板表面提供附着。相变材料的多样性保证了调温磁盖片在不同工作温度和条件下的广泛应用。我们的预期客户是家庭和企业主，州/议会/政府大楼，医院。调温磁盖可应用于冰箱、炉具、管道、散热器、锅炉等的背面，可为最终用户提供高通用性，以节省热量。它们足够薄，易于滚动，易于修剪（使货架上的产品，如B&Q/DIY仓库）。

Nearly half of all energy consumption is used to generate hot water and heat the homes we live in. A lot if this energy is wasted because of the poor energy control inside our homes.The project is focused on the manufacturing of new product for saving heat both in houses and in industry. Our new product is magnetic decorative cover sheets with thermo-regulating properties. Thermo-regulating magnetic covers can be easily applied and wrap any steel surface saving heat energy at high temperatures and releasing it at low temperatures. A simple way of demonstrating this is with house radiators. Every boiler has different heating programs alternating heating and on-hold periods. Hot water in radiators heats the house when the boiler is on. However, when the boiler is off, there is no external heating. Application of magnetic cover sheets with thermo-regulating properties on the radiator surface makes it possible to store heat and autonomically release it when the boiler is off (usually during the night). This technology will keep the house warm during the whole day thus saving on gas or electricity bills. Magnetic sheets can be easily attached or removed from radiator surfaces, so no special installation is needed. The same approach can be applied in industry for heating in-door factory areas from the waste heat produced by hot water piplines.The project is the combination of the cover sheets production technologies existing in Radwraps and research results achieved in the University of Liverpool for this new type of heat storage materials. Materials are composed of the encapsulated phase-change material for heat storage and a shell, which prevents the release of the encapsulated phase-change material and provide attachment to the surface of magnetic cover sheet. Great variety of the available phase-change materials will guarantee wide application area of the thermo-regulating magnetic cover sheets at different operating temperatures and conditions.Our expected customers are home and business owners, state/council/government buildings, hospitals. Thermoregulating magnetic covers can be applied on back side of the refrigerators, stoves, pipes, radiators, boilers etc. which can give a high versatility for end-users to save heat. They are thin enough to roll and easy to trim (makes on the shelf product for ie B&Q/DIY warehouses).
