Abstract

The aim of the research was to determine changes in the thermal power of the heat exchanger, based on the example of a 10-section aluminum central heating radiator, due to the use of paint coating as anti-corrosion protection inside the heating device. The tests were conducted in an accredited laboratory AB143 based on the harmonized standard EN 442-2:2014. The publication briefly characterizes the working medium, which is water, its corrosive properties, and the research method. Mathematical issues were reduced to a minimum so that the text was easily digestible for a wide range of people: installers, users of central heating devices, and manufacturers of radiators (heat exchangers). The publication does not mention a specific model of a central heating radiator or its manufacturer, as well as information about powder paint, focusing on the issue under consideration.
