Preparing for a difficult winter, Ukrainians are insulating windows and front doors to reduce heat loss.
Experts believe that heat transfer can be increased inside the apartment due to the color of the batteries. Homius writes about it.
Heat is removed from the radiator by radiation, convection and thermal conduction. The particle of heat removed by radiation increases when the radiator is painted dark. This will increase heat transfer by 20-25%.
As you know, batteries also heat the room due to the air convection washing them. Therefore, you should not hide the batteries in boxes, cover them with a thick curtain.
If the radiator is closed, even black or brown will not help out. In addition, a thick layer of paint will also impede heat transfer.
