DEVICE FOR LIVESTOCK FLOOR HEATING PREMISES

Abstract

A constructive and technological scheme of a device for heating the floor of livestock buildings is given, where a solar collector and a biothermal installation are used. The results of economic tests showed that with the joint operation of these technical means, the temperature of the floor of the livestock building is maintained in accordance with veterinary and sanitary standards. At the same time, the biological characteristics of the animal organism are more fully taken into account. The device allows you to simultaneously use solar radiation and heat in the process of manure decomposition to heat the floor of the livestock building. The main results of the research: when using a tubular solar collector with plastic pipes with a diameter of 32 mm, the temperature of the coolant at the inlet to the channel was 20 ⁰C, at the outlet of the channel was 53 ⁰C; in the biothermal installation, the average temperatures in the upper pipeline (“Outlet”) and the lower pipeline (“Inlet”) were 37 ⁰C and 28 ⁰C, respectively. The average value of water at the inlet to the floor coil and at the outlet of the coil is 43 ⁰C and 8 ⁰C, respectively.
