  5. Warmup Characterization

  6. When conditions are such that after passing through the heat exchanger and the lower 2/3 of the collector the water has not yet reached temperature, the valve will restrict flow. This appears in the data as an oscillating temperature at the valve, as well as a “cycling” of output.
