Abstract: Underfloor heating systems ensure maximum comfort through optimal vertical temperature distribution, and the possibility of exact control and programming of the indoor climate.Used as a total heating source, the underfloor heating system will provide all the heat requirements of the space to be heated, provided that the external walls are properly insulated.In the study, two underfloor heating systems were analyzed using the dynamic simulation feature of the HTflux software.Following these simulations, temperature differences will be observed in front of the floor finish depending on the type of system used.The wet screed system heats up significantly faster and reaches a higher temperature by approximately 4.5% compared to the dry screed system.
