<p>A heating and/or cooling system having a system controller (10) and a number of heating and/or cooling sources (2-1, 2-2, 2-n), which may be multi-stage heat pumps, the heating and/or cooling sources (2-1, 2-2, 2-n) being operated in parallel with respect to the delivery of the heated or cooled working medium. Each of the sources (2-1, 2-2, 2-n) is controlled by an individual controller (5-1, 5-2, 5-n) which is issued with demand signals from the system controller (10). The system controller (10) commands the sources (2-1, 2-2, 2-n) to increase or decrease their heating or cooling capacity by comparing the temperature of mixed working medium from the parallel outlets (6) of the sources (2-1, 2-2, 2-n) to preset reference values. The system controller (10) sequentially energises or de-energises the sources (2-1, 2-2, 2-n) so that at any time the only minimum number of sources (2-1, 2-2, 2-n) which can satisfy the heating and/or cooling demand are energised.</p> |
