kilowatts along 10mm/15mm/22mm copper.....
.... at typical combi flow rates?
I've seen this mentioned somewhere but damned if I can find it.
Just trying to get a ball-park figure for rads feedable from each size.
TIA

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "fred" saying something
like:

Approximations:
22mm 24kW
15mm 12kW
10mm 6kW

Strange!!!, in the admittedly very old tables I have, it says:
For a flow velocity not exceeding 0.75 m/sec (recommended for domestic)
22mm 7.6kW
15mm 3.07kW
10mm no figures.
For a flow velocity not exceeding 1m/sec (recommended for industrial)
22mm 14.65kW
15mm 4.7kW
10mm no figures
These carrying capacities are calculated on a temperature drop of 11deg C in
the system.
The figures are so far apart from the previous contributor there must be an
error somewhere.

11 deg C drop.. condensing boilers need a bigger drop so the water has to
give out more heat.

Crap! Sorry, brainfart. That above should read
28mm 24kW
22mm 12kW
15mm 6kW
10mm 3kW
Used as a quick and dirty rule of thumb I've found this to be good
enough for general purposes.
It tallies much better with your figures (and no, I'm not just
correcting them to look better).

Interesting; my new 28kW system boiler has 22mm outlets. Either it's
pushing the water round rather fast or it's not going to work when it's
cold.
