Neat, that would probably work really well. Now that i've gotten my mind set on electronic control, though, i'd love something that I can also put on a timer. The idea of controlling the radiator via the bleed valve…
Exactly! I'm also working with an old NYC apartment building. Once I get radiator control working, I also would love to automate opening and closing my window, but actuators to do that can get pricey...
Thanks for the tip! I'd love to see your plots.
I had some issues correctly biasing (selecting the divider) for the voltage divider circuit on a previous project, so this was just an experiment with a different technique. But that project had other issues (resistive…
Yeah, this is my read on it as well. I don't have a lot of experience with steam heating systems, but I noticed that I had some issues with water dribbling out of the auto-bleed valve when the main steam valve was half…
Interesting! I was thinking of attaching a small geared DC motor to the main steam valve on the radiator, but controlling via the auto-bleed is a really cool idea. I've been a little worried about damaging the bleed…
