Development of a Mathematical Model to Determine the Optimal Location Infrared Heater

Statement of the problem.The problem of optimal placement of an infrared heater in enclosed spaces is considered. The main purpose of the research is to develop a mathematical model that makes it possible to determine the best parameters for installing a heater, such as mounting height and tilt angle. The density and distribution of the heat flow depend on these parameters, which has a significant impact on the heating efficiency. The study analyzes the thermal effect of the heater depending on the geometry of the room, including the height of the ceilings, the layout and the nature of the use of space. Results and conclusions.The developed mathematical model makes it possible to adapt the installation parameters of an infrared heater to specific operating conditions. The analysis showed that the precise placement of the heater contributes to an even distribution of heat, increasing the comfort of the heated space. The results obtained confirm the possibility of reducing energy consumption due to the rational distribution of heat flow. The proposed approach is applicable to both residential and industrial facilities, where the correct location of the heater plays a critical role in ensuring efficient heating.
