The minimum test pressure during hydraulic testing is 1.25 working pressure, but not less than 0.2 MPa (2 kgf/cm2).

The maximum value of the test pressure is established by strength calculations according to the normative and technical documentation agreed with the State Mining and Technical Supervision Authority of Russia.

The test pressure value is selected by the manufacturer (design organization) within the range between the minimum and maximum values.

All newly installed pipelines of heating networks controlled by Gosgortekhnadzor of Russia must be subjected to hydraulic testing for strength and density in accordance with the requirements established by Gosgortekhnadzor of Russia.

the pressure in the pipeline should be increased gradually;

the rate of pressure rise must be indicated in the regulatory and technical documentation (hereinafter referred to as NTD) for the pipeline.

If there is a significant difference in geodetic elevations in the test area, the value of the maximum permissible pressure at its lowest point is agreed upon with the design organization to ensure the strength of the pipelines and the stability of the fixed supports. Otherwise, the site must be tested in parts.

6.2.15. Tests for strength and density should be carried out in compliance with the following basic requirements:

When performing tests, pressure measurements should be made using two certified spring pressure gauges (one is a control one) of class no lower than 1.5 with a body diameter of at least 160 mm. The pressure gauge must be selected from the condition that the measured pressure value is 2/3 of the scale of the device;

when filling with water, air must be completely removed from the pipelines;

the test pressure must be maintained for at least 10 minutes and then reduced to working pressure;

at operating pressure, a thorough inspection of pipelines is carried out along their entire length.

6.2.16. The test results are considered satisfactory if during the test there was no drop in pressure and no signs of rupture, leakage or fogging were found in the welds, as well as leaks in the base metal, in valve bodies and seals, in flange connections and other pipeline elements. In addition, there should be no signs of movement or deformation of pipelines and fixed supports.

It is necessary to draw up a report in the established form regarding the results of testing pipelines for strength and density.

6.2.17. Pipelines of heating networks, before they are put into operation after installation, major or routine repairs with the replacement of pipeline sections, are subject to cleaning:

steam pipelines – purging with steam discharge into the atmosphere;

water networks in closed systems ah heat supply and condensate pipelines - hydropneumatic flushing;

water networks in open heat supply systems and hot water supply networks - hydropneumatic washing and disinfection (in accordance with sanitary rules) followed by repeated rinsing with drinking water. Repeated flushing after disinfection is carried out until the quality of the discharged water reaches the level that meets the sanitary standards for drinking water.

It is necessary to draw up a report on the flushing (purging) of pipelines.

6.2.18. To flush closed heating systems, it is allowed to use water from drinking or technical water supply, after flushing, water is removed from the pipelines.

6.2.19. Connection of heating networks and heat consumption systems after installation and reconstruction is carried out on the basis of a permit issued by state energy supervision authorities.

6.2.20. Filling pipelines of heating networks, their flushing, disinfection, turning on circulation, purging, warming up steam pipelines and other operations for starting up water and steam heating networks, as well as any testing of heating networks or their individual elements and structures are carried out according to a program approved by the technical manager of the organization and agreed upon with a heat source, and, if necessary, with environmental authorities.

6.2.21. The start-up of water heating networks consists of the following operations:

filling pipelines with network water; establishing circulation; network density checks;

switching on consumers and starting adjustment of the network.

The pipelines of heating networks are filled with water at a temperature of no higher than 70 °C when heat consumption systems are turned off.

Pipelines should be filled with water at a pressure not exceeding the static pressure of the filled part of the heating network by more than 0.2 MPa.

To avoid water hammer and to better remove air from pipelines, the maximum hourly water flow rate G b when filling heating network pipelines with a nominal diameter D y should not exceed the values ​​indicated below:

Filling of distribution networks should be done after filling the main pipelines with water, and branches to consumers - after filling the distribution networks.

6.2.22. During the start-up period, it is necessary to monitor the filling and heating of pipelines, the condition of shut-off valves, stuffing box expansion joints, and drainage devices.

The sequence and speed of starting operations are carried out in such a way as to exclude the possibility of significant thermal deformations of the pipelines.

The program for launching heating networks takes into account the features of launching a water heating network when negative temperatures ah of outside air (after a long emergency shutdown, major repairs or when starting up newly built networks).

Heating of network water when circulation is established should be done at a rate of no more than 30 °C per hour.

In the event of damage to the launch pipelines or associated equipment, measures are taken to eliminate this damage.

In the absence of coolant flow measuring devices, starting adjustment is made based on the temperature in the return pipelines (until the temperature from all consumers connected to the network is equalized).

6.2.23. Starting up steam networks consists of the following operations: warming up and purging steam lines;

filling and flushing condensate pipelines; connecting consumers.

6.2.24. Before heating begins, all valves on branches from the heated area are tightly closed. First, the main line is heated, and then its branches one by one. Small, lightly branched steam pipelines can be heated simultaneously throughout the entire network.

When hydraulic shocks occur, the steam supply is immediately reduced, and in the event of frequent and strong shocks, it is completely stopped until the condensate accumulated in it is completely removed from the heated section of the steam line.

The heating rate of the steam line is adjusted based on the appearance of light hydraulic shocks (clicks). When warming up, it is necessary to regulate its speed, while preventing the steam line from sliding off the movable supports.

6.2.25. During the current operation of heating networks, it is necessary to: maintain all equipment, building and other structures of heating networks in good condition, carrying out their timely inspection and repair;

monitor the operation of expansion joints, supports, fittings, drains, vents, instrumentation and other equipment elements, promptly eliminating identified defects and leaks;

The walk-through schedule provides for monitoring the condition of the equipment by both mechanics-inspectors and the foreman.

The frequency of inspections is set depending on the type of equipment and its condition, but at least once a week during the heating season and once a month during the non-heating period. Thermal chambers must be inspected at least once a month; chambers with drainage pumps - at least 2 times a week. Functionality check drainage pumps and automatic activation of them is required during each round.

The inspection results are recorded in the heating network defect log.

Defects that threaten an accident or incident are corrected immediately. Information about defects that do not pose a danger from the point of view of the reliability of operation of the heating network, but which cannot be eliminated without disconnecting the pipelines, is entered in the log of walk-through and inspection of heating networks, and in order to eliminate these defects during the next shutdown of pipelines or during repairs - in the log of current repairs . Control can be carried out by remote methods.

6.2.27. When inspecting the heating network and inspecting underground chambers, personnel are provided with a set of necessary tools, devices, lighting fixtures, and an explosion-proof gas analyzer.

6.2.28. To control hydraulic and temperature conditions heating networks and heat-consuming installations, it is necessary to check the pressure and temperature at network nodes using pressure gauges and thermometers during scheduled inspections.

6.2.29. When operating heating networks, coolant leakage should not exceed the norm, which is 0.25% of the average annual volume of water in the heating network and heat consumption systems connected to it per hour, regardless of their connection scheme, with the exception of hot water supply systems (hereinafter referred to as DHW) connected through water heater

When determining the rate of coolant leakage, the water consumption for filling heat pipelines and heat consumption systems during their planned repairs and connecting new sections of the network and consumers should not be taken into account.

6.2.30. To control the density of equipment of heat sources, heating networks and heat consumption systems, it is allowed in the prescribed manner to use coloring leakage indicators approved for use in heat supply systems.

6.2.31. At each heating network make-up node, the flow of make-up water corresponding to the standard leakage is determined, and instrumentation of the actual flow of make-up water is provided.

If a coolant leak exceeds the established standards, measures must be taken to detect the location of the leak and eliminate it.

6.2.32. In addition to tests for strength and density, organizations operating heating networks conduct tests for the maximum temperature of the coolant, to determine heat and hydraulic losses once every 5 years.

All tests of heating networks are carried out separately and in accordance with current guidelines.

6.2.33. For each section of the heating network that is newly put into operation (regardless of the parameters of the coolant and the diameter of the pipelines), a passport of the established form is drawn up (Appendix 5). The passport records the duration of operation of pipelines and heating network structures, records the results of all types of tests (except for annual tests for strength and tightness at the end of the heating season), and records information about repairs, reconstructions and technical examinations.

6.2.34. To monitor the condition of underground heating pipelines, thermal insulation and building structures, it is necessary to periodically carry out trenching on the heating network.

Scheduled excavations are carried out according to an annually drawn up plan, approved by the person responsible for the good condition and safe operation of thermal power plants and (or) heating networks (technical manager) of the organization.

The number of pittings carried out annually is established depending on the length of the network, methods of laying and thermal insulation structures, the number of previously identified corrosion damage to pipes, and the results of tests for the presence of stray current potential.

At least one pit is provided per 1 km of the route.

In new sections of the network, pitting begins from the third year of operation.

6.2.35. Testing is carried out first:

at intersections with drains, sewers, and water pipes;

in areas located near open drains (ditches), passing under lawns or near sidewalk stones;

in places with unfavorable hydrogeological conditions;

in areas with an expected unsatisfactory condition of thermal insulation structures (as evidenced, for example, by thawed spots along the heat pipeline route in winter);

in areas of channelless installation, as well as channel installation with thermal insulation without an air gap.

6.2.36. The dimensions of the hole are selected based on the convenience of inspecting the pipeline being opened from all sides. In channelless gaskets, the dimensions of the hole at the bottom are at least 1.5x1.5 m; in channel laying, the minimum dimensions ensure the removal of floor slabs to a length of at least 1.5 m.

6.2.37. During pit inspection, the insulation, the pipeline under the insulation and building structures are inspected. If there are noticeable traces of corrosion, it is necessary to clean the surface of the pipe and measure the thickness of the pipeline wall using an ultrasonic thickness gauge or flaw detector.

If the measurement results are questionable and if a wall thinning of 10% or more is detected, it is necessary to carry out control drilling and determine the actual wall thickness.

If local thinning of the wall is detected at 10% of the design (initial) value, these sections are subjected to re-inspection during the repair campaign of the next year.

Sections with a pipeline wall thinning by 20% or more must be replaced.

Based on the results of the inspection, a report is drawn up.

6.2.38. Work to protect heating networks from electrochemical corrosion is carried out by specialized organizations (divisions).

Specific measurements electrical resistance soil tests are carried out as necessary to identify sections of the route of ductless heating networks in soils with high corrosive aggressiveness.

Corrosion measurements to determine the dangerous effect of stray currents on steel pipelines of underground heating networks should be carried out in zones influenced by stray currents once every 6 months, as well as after each significant change in the operating mode of power supply systems of electrified transport (changes in the operating schedule of electric transport, changes in the location of traction substations, suction points, etc.) and conditions associated with the development of a network of underground structures and sources of stray currents, the introduction of electrochemical protection equipment at adjacent structures.

In other cases, measurements are made once every 2 years.

In water heating networks and condensate pipelines, systematic monitoring of internal corrosion of pipelines is carried out by analyzing network water and condensate, as well as using internal corrosion indicators installed at the most characteristic points of heating networks (at the outlets from the heat source, at the end sections, at several intermediate nodes ). Internal corrosion indicators are checked during the repair period.

6.2.48. Every year, before the start of the heating season, all pumping stations must be subjected to comprehensive testing to determine the quality of repairs, correct operation and interaction of all thermal-mechanical and electrical equipment, control equipment, automation, telemechanics, protection of heat supply system equipment and determine the degree of readiness of pumping stations for the heating season.

6.2.49. Routine inspection of the equipment of automated pumping stations should be carried out every shift, checking the load of electrical equipment, the temperature of the bearings, the presence of lubricant, the condition of the seals, the operation of the cooling system, and the presence of chart tapes in recording devices.

6.2.50. At non-automated pumping stations, equipment is serviced on a daily basis.

6.2.51. Before starting the pumps, and when they are running once per shift, it is necessary to check the condition of the pumping and associated equipment.

In drainage pumping stations, the effect of the level regulator on the automatic pump switching device should be monitored at least 2 times a week.

6.2.52. When operating automatic regulators, periodic inspections of their condition are carried out, checking their operation, cleaning and lubricating moving parts, adjusting and tuning the regulators to maintain the specified parameters. Automation and technological protection devices for heating networks can be taken out of operation only by order of the technical manager of the organization, except in cases of disabling individual protections when starting up equipment, as provided for in local instructions.

6.2.53. The heating network is fed with softened, deaerated water, the quality of which meets the quality requirements for network and make-up water for hot water boilers, depending on the type of heat source and heat supply system.

6.2.54. Heat consumption systems connected according to an independent circuit are fed with water from the heating network.

6.2.55. Water pressure at any point in the supply line of water heating networks, heating points and in high points directly connected heat consumption systems when operating network pumps should be higher than the saturated vapor pressure of water when it maximum temperature no less than 0.5 kgf/cm2.

6.2.56. Excess water pressure in the return line of water heating networks during operation of network pumps must be at least 0.5 kgf/cm 2 . The water pressure in the return line should not be higher than permissible for heating networks, heating points and for directly connected heat consumption systems.

6.2.57. An idle heating network is filled only with deaerated water and must be under excess pressure of at least 0.5 kgf/cm 2 at the upper points of the pipelines.

6.2.58. For two-pipe water heating networks, the heat supply regime is based on a central quality control schedule.

If there is a hot water supply load, the minimum water temperature in the supply pipeline of the network is provided for closed heat supply systems at least 70 °C; for open heating systems of hot water supply – not lower than 60 °C.

6.2.59. The water temperature in the supply line of the water heating network, in accordance with the schedule approved for the heating supply system, is set according to the average outside air temperature over a period of time within 12–24 hours, determined by the heating network dispatcher depending on the length of the networks, climatic conditions and other factors.

Deviations from the specified mode at the heat source are provided for no more than:

according to the temperature of the water entering the heating network ±3%;

by pressure in the supply pipeline ±5%;

by pressure in the return pipeline ±0.2 kgf/cm 2.

The deviation of the actual average daily return water temperature from the heating network may exceed that specified by the schedule by no more than +5%. The decrease in the actual return water temperature compared to the schedule is not limited.

6.2.60. Hydraulic modes of water heating networks are developed annually for the heating and summer periods; for open heat supply systems during the heating period, modes are developed with maximum water withdrawal from the supply and return pipelines and in the absence of water withdrawal.

Measures to regulate water consumption among consumers are drawn up for each heating season.

The order of construction of new mains and pumping stations provided for by the heat supply scheme is determined taking into account the real growth of the connected heat load, for which purpose the organization operating the heating network is developing hydraulic modes of the heat supply system for the next 3–5 years.

6.2.61. For each control point of the heating network and at the make-up nodes, permissible values ​​of flow rates and water pressures in the supply, return (and make-up) pipelines are established in the form of a regime map, corresponding to normal hydraulic conditions for the heating and summer periods.

6.2.66. To quickly carry out work to limit the spread of accidents in heating networks and eliminate damage, each operational area of ​​the heating network provides the necessary supply of fittings and materials. The fittings installed on pipelines are of the same type in length and flanges.

The emergency supply of materials is stored in two places: the main part is stored in the pantry, and a certain amount of the emergency supply (consumables) is in a special cabinet at the disposal of the responsible person from the operational staff. Consumables used by operational personnel are replenished within 24 hours from the bulk of the stock.

The supply of fittings and materials for each operational area of ​​the heating network is determined depending on the length of the pipelines and the number of installed fittings in accordance with emergency stock standards; a list of necessary fittings and materials is compiled, which is approved by the person responsible for the good condition and safe operation of the organization's heating networks.

These standards consider centralized heat supply systems (hereinafter referred to as DHS) in terms of their interaction in a single technological process of production, distribution, transportation and consumption of heat.
These rules and regulations must be observed when designing new and reconstructing, modernizing and technically re-equipping existing heating networks (including structures on heating networks).

3 TERMS AND DEFINITIONS

The following terms and definitions are used in these standards.
A centralized heat supply system is a system consisting of one or more heat sources, heat networks (regardless of the diameter, number and length of external heat pipelines) and heat consumers.
The probability of failure-free operation of the system [P] is the ability of the system to prevent failures leading to a temperature drop in heated rooms of residential and public buildings below +12 °C, in industrial buildings below +8 °C, more than the number of times established by the standards.
The system availability (quality) coefficient is the probability of the system’s operational state at any time to maintain the calculated internal temperature in heated rooms, except for periods of temperature decrease allowed by regulations.
System survivability [Zh] - the ability of the system to maintain its functionality in emergency (extreme) conditions, as well as after long-term (more than 54 hours) shutdowns.
Service life of heating networks - a period of time in calendar years from the date of commissioning, after which an expert examination should be carried out technical condition pipeline in order to determine the admissibility, parameters and conditions of further operation of the pipeline or the need for its dismantling.

4 CLASSIFICATION

4.1 Heating networks are divided into main, distribution, quarterly and branches from main and distribution heating networks to individual buildings and structures. The separation of heating networks is established by the project or operating organization.
4.2 Heat consumers are divided into three categories according to the reliability of heat supply:
The first category is consumers who do not allow interruptions in the supply of the calculated amount of heat and a decrease in the air temperature in the premises below those provided for by GOST 30494.
For example, hospitals, maternity hospitals, children's preschool institutions with 24-hour stay for children, art galleries, chemical and special industries, mines, etc.
The second category is consumers who allow a decrease in temperature in heated rooms for the period of liquidation of the accident, but not more than 54 hours:
residential and public buildings up to 12 °C;
industrial buildings up to 8 °C.
The third category is the remaining consumers.

The heat supply scheme adopted for development in the project must ensure:
standard level of heat and energy saving;
standard level of reliability, determined by three criteria: probability of failure-free operation, availability (quality) of heat supply and survivability;
environmental requirements;
safety of operation.
6.2 The operation of heating networks and central heating systems in general should not lead to:
a) to an unacceptable concentration during operation of substances that are toxic and harmful to the population, maintenance personnel and the environment in tunnels, channels, chambers, rooms and other structures, in the atmosphere, taking into account the ability of the atmosphere to self-purify in a specific residential area, microdistrict, locality etc.;
b) to a persistent violation of the natural (natural) thermal regime vegetation cover (grass, shrubs, trees) under which heat pipelines are laid.
6.3 Heat networks, regardless of the installation method and heat supply system, should not pass through the territory of cemeteries, landfills, cattle burial grounds, radioactive waste burial sites, irrigation fields, filtration fields and other areas that pose a risk of chemical, biological and radioactive contamination of the coolant.
Technological devices of industrial enterprises, from which they can be supplied to heating networks harmful substances, must be connected to heating networks through a water heater with an additional intermediate circulation circuit between such a device and the water heater while ensuring pressure in the intermediate circuit is less than in the heating network. In this case, provision should be made for the installation of sampling points to monitor harmful impurities.
Hot water supply systems for consumers must be connected to steam networks through steam-water heaters.
6.4 Safe Operation heating networks should be ensured by developing measures in projects that exclude:
contact people directly with hot water or with hot surfaces of pipelines (and equipment) at coolant temperatures above 75 °C;
the flow of coolant into heat supply systems at temperatures above those determined by safety standards;
reduction in air temperature in residential and production premises consumers of the second and third categories are below permissible values ​​(4.2);

6.7 Direct tapping of network water from consumers in closed heat supply systems is not permitted.
6.8 In open heat supply systems, the connection of some hot water supply consumers through water-to-water heat exchangers at heat points of subscribers (via a closed system) is allowed as a temporary connection, provided that the quality of network water is ensured (maintained) in accordance with the requirements of current regulatory documents.

unified repair and maintenance bases - for heating networks that are part of divisions of thermal power plants, district boiler houses or industrial enterprises.

Heat network diagrams

6.11 Water heating networks should be designed, as a rule, as two-pipe systems, simultaneously supplying heat for heating, ventilation, hot water supply and technological needs.
Multi-pipe and single-pipe heating networks may be used during a feasibility study.
Heat networks transporting network water in open heat supply systems in one direction, when laid above ground, can be designed in a single-pipe design with a transit length of up to 5 km. If the length is greater and there is no backup supply of the central heating system from other heat sources, the heating networks must be constructed in two (or more) parallel heat pipelines.
Independent heating networks for connecting process heat consumers should be provided if the quality and parameters of the coolant differ from those accepted in heating networks.
6.12 The layout and configuration of heating networks must ensure heat supply at the level of specified reliability indicators by:
application of the most advanced designs and technical solutions;
collaboration heat sources;
laying backup heat pipelines;
installation of jumpers between heating networks of adjacent thermal areas.
6.13 Heat networks can be ring and dead-end, redundant and non-redundant.
The number and location of backup pipeline connections between adjacent heat pipelines should be determined according to the criterion of the probability of failure-free operation.
6.14 Heating and ventilation systems for consumers must be connected to two-pipe water heating networks directly using a dependent connection scheme.
According to an independent scheme, which provides for the installation of water heaters in heating points, it is allowed to connect other consumers when justifying the heating and ventilation system of buildings of 12 floors and above, if the independent connection is due to the hydraulic operating mode of the system.
6.15 The quality of source water for open and closed heat supply systems must meet the requirements of SanPiN 2.1.4.1074 and the rules for the technical operation of power plants and networks of the Ministry of Energy of Russia.
For closed heat supply systems in the presence of thermal deaeration, it is allowed to use process water.
6.16 The estimated hourly water consumption to determine the productivity of water treatment and the corresponding equipment for replenishing the heating supply system should be taken:
in closed heat supply systems - 0.75% of the actual volume of water in the pipelines of heating networks and the heating and ventilation systems of buildings connected to them. At the same time, for sections of heating networks longer than 5 km from heat sources without heat distribution, the calculated water flow should be taken equal to 0.5% of the volume of water in these pipelines;
in open heat supply systems - equal to the calculated average water consumption for hot water supply with a coefficient of 1.2 plus 0.75% of the actual volume of water in the pipelines of heating networks and the heating, ventilation and hot water supply systems of buildings connected to them. At the same time, for sections of heating networks longer than 5 km from heat sources without heat distribution, the calculated water flow should be taken equal to 0.5% of the volume of water in these pipelines;
for individual heating networks of hot water supply in the presence of storage tanks - equal to the calculated average water consumption for hot water supply with a coefficient of 1.2; in the absence of tanks - according to the maximum water consumption for hot water supply plus (in both cases) 0.75% of the actual volume of water in the network pipelines and the hot water supply systems of buildings connected to them.
6.17 For open and closed heat supply systems, additional emergency make-up with chemically untreated and non-deaerated water must be provided, the flow rate of which is assumed to be 2% of the volume of water in the pipelines of heating networks and the heating, ventilation systems connected to them and in hot water supply systems for open heat supply systems. If there are several separate heating networks extending from the heat source manifold, emergency make-up can be determined only for one heating network with the largest volume. For open heat supply systems, emergency make-up should be provided only from domestic drinking water supply systems.
6.18 The volume of water in heat supply systems, in the absence of data on actual volumes of water, can be taken equal to 65 m3 per 1 MW of calculated heat load with a closed heat supply system, 70 m3 per 1 MW with an open system and 30 m3 per 1 MW of average load with separate networks hot water supply.
6.19 Placement of hot water storage tanks is possible both at the heat source and in heat consumption areas. In this case, storage tanks with a capacity of at least 25% of the total design capacity of the tanks must be provided at the heat source. The inner surface of the tanks must be protected from corrosion, and the water in them from aeration, while continuous renewal of the water in the tanks must be provided.
6.20 For open heat supply systems, as well as for separate heating networks for hot water supply, storage tanks of chemically treated and deaerated make-up water with a design capacity equal to ten times the average hourly water consumption for hot water supply must be provided.
6.21 In closed heat supply systems at heat sources with a capacity of 100 MW or more, provision should be made for the installation of storage tanks for chemically treated and deaerated make-up water with a capacity of 3% of the volume of water in the heat supply system, and the renewal of water in the tanks must be ensured.
The number of tanks, regardless of the heat supply system, is accepted to be at least two, each 50% of the working volume.
6.22 In central heating systems with heat pipelines of any length from the heat source to heat consumption areas, the use of heat pipelines as storage tanks is allowed.
6.23 If a group of storage tanks is located outside the territory of heat sources, it must be fenced with a common shaft of at least 0.5 m in height. The embanked area must accommodate the volume of water in the largest tank and have water drainage to the sewer.
6.24 It is not allowed to install hot water storage tanks in residential areas. The distance from hot water storage tanks to the border of residential areas must be at least 30 m. Moreover, on soils of the 1st type of subsidence, the distance must, in addition, be at least 1.5 times the thickness of the subsidence soil layer.
When placing storage tanks outside the territory of heat sources, they should be fenced with a height of at least 2.5 m to prevent unauthorized persons from accessing the tanks.
6.25 Hot water storage tanks for consumers should be provided in the hot water supply systems of industrial enterprises to align the shifting schedule of water consumption by facilities that have concentrated short-term water consumption for hot water supply.
For industrial facilities with a ratio of the average heat load for hot water supply to the maximum heat load for heating less than 0.2, storage tanks are not installed.
6.26 To reduce losses of network water and, accordingly, heat during planned or forced emptying of heat pipes, it is allowed to install special storage tanks in heating networks, the capacity of which is determined by the volume of heat pipes between two sectional valves.

Reliability

7 COOLANTS AND THEIR PARAMETERS

7.1 In centralized heat supply systems for heating, ventilation and hot water supply of residential, public and industrial buildings, as a rule, water should be used as a coolant.
The possibility of using water as a coolant for technological processes should also be checked.
The use of steam as a single coolant for enterprises for technological processes, heating, ventilation and hot water supply is allowed during a feasibility study.
7.2 The maximum design temperature of network water at the outlet of the heat source, in heating networks and heat receivers is established on the basis of technical and economic calculations.
If there is a hot water supply load in closed heat supply systems, the minimum temperature of the network water at the outlet of the heat source and in the heating networks must ensure the possibility of heating the water supplied to the hot water supply to a standardized level.
7.3 The temperature of network water returned to thermal power plants with combined heat and electricity generation is determined by technical and economic calculations. The temperature of network water returned to boiler rooms is not regulated.
7.4 When calculating graphs of network water temperatures in district heating systems, beginning and end heating season at the average daily outside air temperature the following are accepted:
8 °C in areas with a design outside air temperature for heating design up to minus 30 °C and an average design temperature internal air heated buildings 18 °C;
10 °C in areas with a design outside air temperature for heating design below minus 30 °C and an average design temperature of internal air in heated buildings of 20 °C.
The average design temperature of the internal air of heated industrial buildings is 16 °C.
7.5 If the heat receivers in the heating and ventilation systems do not have automatic individual devices for regulating the temperature inside the premises, the following should be used in heating networks to regulate the temperature of the coolant:
central quality for the heating load, for the combined load of heating, ventilation and hot water supply - by changing the coolant temperature at the heat source depending on the outside air temperature;
central qualitative and quantitative for the combined load of heating, ventilation and hot water supply - by regulating both the temperature and the flow of network water at the heat source.
Central qualitative and quantitative regulation at the heat source can be supplemented by group quantitative regulation at heating points, mainly during the transition period of the heating season, starting from the break point of the temperature curve, taking into account heating connection schemes, ventilation units and hot water supply, pressure fluctuations in the heating system, the presence and location of storage tanks, the heat storage capacity of buildings and structures.

for closed heat supply systems - at least 70 °C;
for open heat supply systems - at least 60 °C.
With central qualitative and quantitative regulation for the combined load of heating, ventilation and hot water supply, the break point of the water temperature graph in the supply and return pipelines should be taken at the outside air temperature corresponding to the break point of the control graph for the heating load.
7.7 In heat supply systems, if the heat consumer in the heating and ventilation systems has individual devices for regulating the air temperature indoors by the amount of network water flowing through the receivers, central qualitative and quantitative regulation should be used, supplemented by group quantitative regulation at heating points in order to reduce fluctuations in hydraulic and thermal regimes in specific quarterly (microdistrict) systems within the limits ensuring the quality and stability of heat supply.
