Number of change of air in a bulk warehouse
Number of change of air in a bulk warehouse
(OP)
Actually, We have to design the ventilation
system for a bulk warehouse. A recomendation that we are following is to achieve two changes of air per hour in all the warehouse.
I want to know if you have any other standard for that particularly case.
Thanks in advance for your help.

"Estimados,
Actualmente tenemos una apliación en la cual es necesario diseñar el sistema de ventilación en un almacén para concentrado. Una de las recomendaciones que nos han indicado es considerar dos renovaciones x hora.
Quisiera saber si alguno de ustedes ha participado en el diseño de una aplicación similar y cual ha sido el numero de renovaciones utilizadas.
Saludos"

However,I used to see a paper. It said one air change per hour can produce the desired conditions in the space when using pressurized methods.

I would like to know the paper in which the numebr of change of air is recomended.

You should calculate the amount of heat gained across the roof, and walls, plus the internal heat loads due to lights. Including solar heat gain. This can only be done effectivaly with software. The total of all heat loads is Q.
Q = 1.08 * CFM *(Te - To)
Q = total of all sensible heat loads
CFM=required flowrate of air (cu ft/minute)
Te = Temperature of exhaust from building
To = Temperature of air outside building (air entering the warehouse via louvers)
Use (Te-To)=10 deg F, and solve the equation for CFM. For example, if the design temperature for the area is 93 F, then the exhaust from the building will be 103 F.
If the exhaust temperature is 104 deg F or higher, then you can't have major electrical equipment like motor control centers in this space, because they are generally rated for 104 F maximum. Put them in a room with Air Conditioning, or increase the ventilation to maintain 104 F max at design summer conditions.
As for the paper for calculating this, this formula is on every psychometric chart ever made, and in every HVAC book ever written.
Real world knowledge doesn't fall out of the sky on a parachute, but rather is gained in small increments during moments of panic or curiosity.
