Primary/Secondary chilled water system pumping
The traditional primary/secondary pumping system is variable secondary pumps and fixed speed primary pumps with a decoupling line between
Can you have variable speed primary pumps whereby the chilled water flow rate through the evaporator varies...
Hello
I have a boiler system in my factory running at 7 bar.
I have a new user requiring 1,000Kg/hr of steam at 2 bar.
I will have to install a pressure reducing station to drop from 7 bar to 2 bar.
My question is will my boiler be delivering an extra 1,000kg/hr at 7 bar or will it be a...
Hello
If I have a 10,000 kg/hr steam boiler but only run it at say 7 bar, is there a formula I can use to de-rate the boiler output to calculate its revised capacity in Kg/hr

I understand the bit about taking in a small portion because that's all that is need to get to the desired RH, but why take in before the main cooling coil and deliver out after the main cooling coil.
I have seen another installation on the same site and the dehumidifier takes in a...
I am upgrading an existing air handler and its BMS controls that is about 15-18 years old.
The air handler looks pretty typical for Pharma with full fresh air, filters, heating coil, cooling coil and fan with zone reheats. Because the %RH requirements for the space are low, humidity 30%, they...
Hi , I am looking for an actuator to work in a fire type situation for auto and manual control through a control panel
The actuator is to be both modulating when in auto and on/off(open/closed)when in hand at the panel
The actuator will be spring return and with power on it 24 V it will open...
Hello
I have an air handling unit with a new steam to steam humidifier. The humidifier is fairly basis and maintains the room level humidity set point pretty good. Only thing is it sometimes sets off the smoke alarm in the supply duct and even in the rooms. Any tips for getting residual steam...
I have an air handlig unit that has a fixed outside air damper and a fixed return air damper.
Outsdie temps vary from -5 to 25 dgeC so I want to add economy cycle control to the unit.
I will install an entalphy sensor outside and one on the return air duct. If the return entalphy is greater...
Hi
I am installing a heating coil directly in front of a centrifugal fan outlet in an air handler.
I want to disperse the air before it hits the coil with a perforated plate infront of the fan.
Does any one have informaiton or tech data on the idean distance between the fan and perforate plate...
I work in a facility with dozens of air handlers and fans.
If one of the buildings goes into fire mode due to smoke detector alarm all the AHUs shut down as per the control strategy for that building.
When the fire trip is cleared back at the main Fire Panel (usually after a fasle alarm) some of...

Hi
I have an old hot water storage unit with a name plast on it and it is as follows
Maximum working pressure 0.8 bar
Design Pressure 1.5 bar
Test Pressure 3.0bar
What is the difference between maximum working pressure and design pressure. I want to increase the current working pressure to...
Hi, Im looking at designing a new Dust Colleciton System, with an extract fan, turrit dust collecor unit and circular ductwork to 4 machine outlets points, approx 4" per outlet.
I want to make it as efficient as possible.
Not all machines will be operational at once. I would like to put the fan...

I like that idea of the mixing valve, it ensures my CHW retun temp is not any more than the design return so I will not upset the chillers. Any idea how i could get an estimation on cooling time if I sued say a 1 inch supply/reutn pipe?
Keep it simple...
Ensure you seperate office areas from the likes of conference rooms or higher occupancy area so areas of equel proportions of outsdie air are on the same HVAC system. e.g. offices may require 10% outside air, conference rooms require 25% outsdie air, best have have these of...
