To determine

The media used by hydronic system to move heat around in the system.

Answer to Problem 1RQ

Hydronic heating system uses water or steam to move heat around in the system.

Explanation of Solution

Hydronic system is the system in which the transfer of heat from one place to another place is done by the means of water or steam. The hydronic system consists of pipes which carry hot water to warm the space and can carry cool water to absorb heat from the space.

Hydronic heating system contains a heating device, expansion tank, pump and a network of pipe. The heating device can be a boiler which boils the water and add some heat to increase its temperature.

The hot water is pumped into the pipe network by the means of a pumping device. The hydronic system is a closed system so there is an expansion tank where water expands and can cool for another cycle.

Conclusion:

Thus, hydronic heating system use water or steam to move the heat around in the system.
