Analyses the characteristics of the heating systems and summarizes the applicability through hydraulic calculation. Emphasizes that it is important to perform hydraulic calculation in designing work. Indicates that for single-story buildings with large-scope, multiple vertical pipes and lower loads, the vertical one pipe loop reversed return heating systems are not suitable because of the difficulty in achieving hydraulic balance, so other systems should be given priority.
