    HVAC validation protocols such as DQ,IQ,PQ & OQ

    Hi Experts, Happy New Year to All, Could some experts throw light on HVAC validation protocols such as DQ,IQ,PQ & OQ. Is it related to ASHRAE or Building Codes? Best regards, Manu

    Sensors for Ventilation

    Hi Experts, As I understand the new Ventilation meeting Energy savings would work on Carbon dioxide sensors output. However in some occasions there has been cases where carbon monoxide sensors are also used. I believe Carbon monoxide is used in Parking lots and Carbon dioxide in Human...

    Electrical connection

    Hi Experts, Can I use a soft starter for AHU of 14000CFM. FCU of 4TR hopefully can be connected to direct online. Please share your thoughts. Thanks, Manu

    Rows of coil selection

    So would it be correct to understand that In a coil where more rows are available will be for the Latent heat removal or dehumidification. Will the both section be available in the same frame of the coil or the coils for sensible and dehumidification are different set of coils with their...

    Rows of coil selection

    Given the area/space larger no of coils will increase the capacity, as I believe. How does that connect to the sensible heat capacity that too inversely. Manu

    Rows of coil selection

    Hi Experts, What should be parameters for a no of coils decision for a AHU. As the coil no increases from 4 to 6 or 8, the gap becomes less and can cause a high bypass factor. What implications should be taken care while the no of rows is decided. Thanks in advance. Manu

    VRV

    Hi Experts, I have been into Chill based. There has some need into VRV. Would some expert please throw light on below. Do all VRV have indoor units having its electronic expansion valve? What are the options available? I have heard people using AHU along with VRV. How does that help when...

    Noise reduction Reduction AHU room

    To Willard, Will there be a need for lead lined sheetrock, as there is no fear of radiation. Lead could lead to higher weight. And lead being a heavy metal.

    Chiller starter

    Hi Experts, I was pondering over the selection of the chiller starter. I was tempting to with Soft starter as project specification gives option against Star-Delta. I have used Soft start for Air cooled versions uptill 500TR chiller capacity, multi compressor. But have a single compressor...

    Noise reduction Reduction AHU room

    I thought about 1 inch thick rockwool acoustic lining all around the AHU shell. This when compared to lining around the room wall would reduce cost.

    PICV

    By function I don't believe VAV is completely equivalent to a Chill water PICV. The duct length connected to the VAV and the leak permeability would cause an issue unlike PICV.

    Noise reduction Reduction AHU room

    Thanks Willard for the reply. Client is adamant of the noise. Hence was thinking about providing acoustic packing on the AHU skin, in addition to sound attenuators in return and supply. Believe rockwool fibre around the AHU body would make a difference. No idea on costing...

    Noise reduction Reduction AHU room

    Hi Experts, There is a need to achieve 62db Pressure levels inside an AHU room that handle 150K CFM. Would sound attenutaor in the return line help or in the supply. Since the work is warm shell, the ducting and further work outside the AHU is not in scope. There is a mixing box planned hope...

    PICV

    Thanks to all of you. I am planning to keep PICV in the downstream of all major and load variable units, eg for PAHU and AHU. And a manual balancing valve in the main CHW line before that branches to feed AHU and rooms with PAHU. With refernce to HerrKaLeun's mention about VAV being an...
