<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a heat source device of low frequency of starting and stopping a heating means and high energy efficiency. <P>SOLUTION: This heat source device 1 can implement hot water storing operation for storing hot water heated by the heating means 24 in a storing tank 2, heating operation for supplying the hot water heated by the heating means 24 to a load terminal 30, and hot water supplying operation for discharging the hot water stored in the storing tank 2 to the external. A control device 6 predicts a time period of each operation and heat energy consumed by each operation in future on the basis of the past operation record of the heat source device 1. The control device 6 implements target hot water storing amount adjusting operation for reducing the target hot water storing amount in the hot water storing operation by the assumed amount of hot water supplied to the load terminal 30 when the heating operation is performed as programmed, when it is predicted that the heating operation is implemented in a prescribed time period based on the completion of hot water storing operation. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
