1. An apparatus for automatically controlling a constant flow by considering heating load, comprising:
- a supply tube (2) through which warm water is supplied to each household;
a warm water duct (4) which is communicated with the supply tube (2) and is branched to each room, and allows the latent heat of the warm water to be heat-exchanged with the corresponding room;
a water returning pipe (5) which is communicated with the warm water duct (4) and to which the heat exchanged warm water is returned;
a water returning pipe (5) to which flows of the water returning pipe (5) is collected and through which the collected flows are discharged outside;
a temperature adjusting portion (110) which is installed in each room to set a desired temperature thereto and measures an indoor temperature of each room;
a driver (120) which is installed respectively in the water returning pipe (5) and opens and closes a passage of the water returning pipe (5) according to an electrical signal;
a variable flow valve (200,300,400,500) which is installed in the supply tube (2) or the water returning tube (7) and varies the flow of the supply tube or the water returning tube according to another electrical signal; and
a controller (130) which receives the signal from the temperature adjusting portion (110) and controls the driver (120) and the variable flow valve wherein the controller (130) in which an optimum flow value in proportion to a necessary request heat amount of the corresponding room in consideration of heating load per room is stored, controls the driver (120) of the room where heating has to be stopped, according to a signal from the temperature adjusting portion (110) to close a passage of the water returning pipe (5) of the corresponding room, thereby to reduce a flow of the variable flow valve in proportion to a ratio of the optimum flow value of the closed room to a summation of a total optimum flow value.

Abstract
Provided is an apparatus for automatically controlling a constant flow by considering a heating load in which a necessary request heat amount necessary for optimum heating is calculated by considering a heating load per room to find a optimum flow in proportion to the heat amount and reduce a total constant flow of the household by the optimum flow corresponding to the heating-stopped room, and thereby to save fuel cost in proportion to the heating-stopped flow and decrease tube noise due to cavitation.
