Previously, large-scale farmers used coal-fired boilers to heat the farms in winter to ensure the appropriate temperature and humidity of the farms. But those who have used coal-fired boilers know that coal-fired boilers have great disadvantages. For example, the emission of pollutants such as waste gas, waste residue, and dust will not only pollute the atmospheric environment and the hygiene of the farm, but may also cause poisoning and death of pigs, cattle, chickens, ducks, etc.; there are open flames, which are prone to fire hazards; manual operation, temperature control is not accurate and stable enough, and the sudden change of temperature makes it easier for farmed animals to get sick.
In recent years, with the application and promotion of air source heat pumps in the market, some large and medium-sized farms have switched to various air source heat pumps that are more environmentally friendly, energy-saving, and stable when used. For example, the Ningxia 100,000 square meter broiler farm uses 33 ultra-low temperature air source heat pumps.
Project Cases
The Dadi (Ningxia) Digital Agriculture Industrial Park Centralized Heating Project
The total construction area of Phase 1 is 111,760 square meters, mainly for breeding meat chickens. The actual use area is 100,000 square meters, with a total of 58 breeding greenhouses, a single greenhouse area of 1,708 square meters, length 122m*width 14mm*height 3.5m, the first required heating is 40 greenhouses, a total area of 68,320 square meters, the insulation material is polyethylene double layer, the greenhouse temperature is required to be 35℃, and the terminal floor heating pipe runs on the wall.
Using 33 ultra-low temperature air source heat pumps
Now the chicken farm has been running for several heating seasons, the operation effect is stable, the ambient temperature is suitable, and the economic benefits of the farm have increased significantly.
The application of air source heat pumps in farms has great advantages
1. Energy saving and economic benefits
The use of air source heat pumps saves 50%-70% of the cost compared to direct electric heating, and saves 30%-50% of the cost compared to gas heating. Farms are usually large in area, so the heating equipment used also requires high power. For air source heat pumps, the energy-saving advantage is greater and the economic benefits are more obvious.
2. Suitable temperature is conducive to the life and growth of livestock
Air source heat pumps have strong constant temperature capabilities and are very accurate in controlling the water supply temperature. The lower the water supply temperature, the lower the energy consumption. The heating water supply temperature is controlled between 35℃-45℃, and the indoor temperature can reach 20℃±2℃, and the temperature can be accurate to ±1℃. This low-temperature water supply method is an effect that cannot be achieved by using gas wall-mounted boilers. Therefore, it can achieve energy saving while keeping the indoor temperature more constant. The more suitable the temperature of the farm, the more conducive it is to the growth of farmed livestock and improve economic efficiency.
3. Intelligent and convenient
The air source heat pump has a very high degree of intelligence. It not only does not require manual management, but also can prevent operational accidents caused by human factors. In addition, the temperature control is very accurate, and it can intelligently adjust the temperature and humidity of the farm to meet the 24-hour constant temperature and humidity requirements in the house.
