Troll-feeding Senile Asshole Alert! LOL
On Thu, 6 May 2021 20:23:13 +0100, Fredxx, the notorious, troll-feeding,
senile smartass, blathered yet again: Even that is unclear. The paper makes it clear. A very wide horizontal radiator would work better as far as heating the air is concerned. Not in all cases, as demonstrated by the paper in real home situations. Let me guess: you REFUSE to accept that are getting trolled by the senile trolling pest from Australia, just so that you can continue with your notorious smartassing! G |

What matters is the vertical distance. There is no chimney effect with a radiator. The gap between the radiator and the wall and radiator height will determine air speed over the radiator.

If you think differently, please feel free to cite an explanation why this isn't the case. Just did. And dont need a cite, just an explanation. You haven't explained why a larger temperature difference within an enclosed space such as a flue or the space around a radiator won't create a bigger draught when we know the opposite is generally true.

Only because vertical radiators add less heat to the room. |

Not with what we are discussing the main movement of heat from the side front of the radiator facing the room when the only difference is whether the radiator is horizontal or vertical it doesnt. and that a "very wide horizontal radiator" wouldn't necessarily "work better as far as heating the air is concerned".

So an admission there is an optimum aspect ratio, Nope, because there isnt. and wider is not necessarily better. I said that right from the start, ****wit.

In fact I said a lot more than just that in the next para that you flagrantly dishonestly deleted from the quoting, you pathetic excuse for a flagrantly dishonest bull**** artist. reams of your lying **** any 2 year old could leave for dead flushed where it belongs Not in all cases, as demonstrated by the paper in real home situations.

And (like some others) Who have the same problem. I saw too many /known/ unknowns - e.g laminar flow? temperature of air exiting top? chimney effect? - quite apart from the possible unknown^2 None of that matters. What matters is the vertical distance. There is no chimney effect with a radiator. The gap between the radiator and the wall and radiator height will determine air speed over the radiator.

If you think differently, please feel free to cite an explanation why this isn't the case. Just did. And dont need a cite, just an explanation. You haven't explained why a larger temperature difference within an enclosed space such as a flue or the space around a radiator won't create a bigger draught when we know the opposite is generally true.

To you facts you can't counter I did counter that claimed fact, you lying bull**** artist. You didn't with any substance. In the end you admitted that wide is not always best. you can't answer except with abuse. Everyone can see for themselves that you are lying thru your ****ing teeth, as you always do when you have got done like a ****ing dinner, as you always are. Your trademark. Quite, everyone can see the article and can see wider is not always better. I never ever said that wider is always better, you pathetic excuse for a lying bull**** artist. Backtracking now. Then we are in agreement. In fact I actually said the exact opposite and you carefully and flagrantly dishonestly deleted that from the quoting. So you agree that wider is not always better. Great. But wider vs taller isn't always an optimum choice. More drivel with the radiators being discussed, you pathetic excuse for a lying bull**** artist. Quite, the paper was discussing aspect ratios of 0.5 to 2. But the vertical radiators being discussed are well outside that, ****wit. You made an unqualified statement Like hell I did, you flagrantly dishonestly deleted the qualification that was right after that sentence from the quoting. And since this lying **** is the best you can manage, here goes the chain on the rest of your lying **** and flagrant dishonesty you always end up with when you have got done line a ****ing dinner, as you always are. There was no cite of an article saying that wider is better. Anyway, since you have backtracked and agree there is an optimum. |

I am being told that vertical radiators are not as efficient for the same volumetric flow as horizontal radiators.
Some gutless ****wit desperately cowering behind
Fredxx spewed just the puerile **** and lies it always ends up with when its got done like a ****ing dinner, as it always is. |

As I think I said the last time this came up, my physics is nowhere near good enough to decide "by inspection" whether a vertical or horizontal radiator is better at transferring heat to a room. Yes, you clearly have that problem. Plenty of us dont. I don't know why you say that, Because its true ? Novel concept I realise. as the chimney effect can sometimes be very good at providing a good airflow. They both have that. The difference is that the horizontal radiators have the air moving over much less of the radiator so the radiator has more cold air moving over it and so you will see more heat moving out of the radiator into the airstream. So at first sight it's not obvious which orientation is best. Only for those who dont have a clue about the basics. Only those with hindsight will think differently. Wrong. And (like some others) Who have the same problem. I saw too many /known/ unknowns - e.g laminar flow? temperature of air exiting top? chimney effect? - quite apart from the possible unknown^2 None of that matters. What matters is the vertical distance. There is no chimney effect with a radiator. The gap between the radiator and the wall and radiator height will determine air speed over the radiator. But that isnt different with the two types of radiator. What matter is the distance that the cold air at the bottom of the radiator moves over before it gets to the top of the radiator. If you think differently, please feel free to cite an explanation why this isn't the case. Just did. And dont need a cite, just an explanation. You haven't explained why a larger temperature difference within an enclosed space such as a flue or the space around a radiator won't create a bigger draught when we know the opposite is generally true. This paper for instance: http://cit.edu.ly/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/15-091.pdf University of Zawia, hardly one of the world's great universitys. A preferred reference over one individual whose chosen speciality is claimed to be chemistry. Another of your bare faced lies. Your trademark. My trademark is to cite the source of my accusations. You clearly didnt with that allegation just above, you pathetic excuse for a lying bull**** artist. I did, Everyone can see for themselves that you didnt. just you don't like the fact No such fact. or remember saying it. I never said that. You confirmed you were a chemist in a thread titled "Ethanol". I did nothing of the sort, you pathetic excuse for a lying bull**** artist. And you provided no cite for that lie either. No lie, just senility on your part: We'll see... https://www.homeownershub.com/uk-diy...-3102366-3.htm and I thought you had a chemical background? Thats not saying I was ever a chemist, ****wit. No, but it was what you said. On an even earlier thread you eluded to being a chemist, No I did not. hence my comment. Which was another of your lies. Are you now saying you failed your physical chemistry research degree? Corse not. My BSc did indeed major in chemistry. My research degree was in physical chemistry and involved no chemistry, only electronics and computing. Then you were had with being offered a physical-chemistry course. It wasnt a course, it was a research degree. So you were had. Wrong, as always. Its what got me into computing and that left chemistry for dead. reams of your even sillier **** flushed where it belongs |

Troll-feeding Senile ASSHOLE Alert! LOL
On Sat, 8 May 2021 01:55:11 +0100, Fredxx, the notorious, troll-feeding,
senile smartass, blathered again: You said you could read. Please try harder. There are some graphs to assist. All the rest of your even sillier ****, lies and flagrant dishonesty flushed where it belongs. Your record has stuck. NOT as long as you keep feeding him, senile twit! tsk |

wrote: snip 'vertical radiators are less *effective* at heating a room than horizontal ones' So, you choose a slightly larger one But that's not a solution to comparing the effectiveness of vertically or horizontally orientated radiators of the same volumetric flow etc. ;-) The thing that doesn't change in the comparison is how a 'third party' acts to / with both orientations, namely the air. Because 'heat rises', the more radiator you can expose to more virgin air the more likely you will transfer more heat between the water rad air. Cheers, T i m |

For conventional central heating radiators most heat-loss is through convection. Air is a poor conductor. It seems there is less overall air flow for a tall radiator than long for a radiator with the same area and construction. So hardly nonsense. Likely true. But, in many cases, so what? Let's assume a horizontal radiator is 100% efficient. wrong understanding of 'efficient' how about a rewrite of the OP 'vertical radiators are less *effective* at heating a room than horizontal ones' So, you choose a slightly larger one I tend to use one that is 2 x overrated (80-60/in-out) over design minimum so I can use a lower water temperature. And of course safer for those in contact. |
