These calculations were carried out by T*SOL Expert 4.5 - the Simulation Programme for Solar
Thermal Heating Systems. The results are determined by a mathematical model calculation with
variable time steps of up to 6 minutes. Actual yields can deviate from these values due to
fluctuations in climate, consumption and other factors.The system schematic diagram above does
not represent and cannot replace a full technical drawing of the solar system.
