Thanks TravisMack,your info is helpful but we would like to provide maximum values for gpm and pressure because this is for conceptual study so, I think the maximum is better. Please consider the building as a 3-storey, Security building with an armory section. Would the armory room would...

Can anyone help me estimate the fire water demand and pressure required for an office building. We need this info as preliminary interface data for utility requirement. Any information is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Some use a specific range of velocity for duct sizing of main and branches. That is almost the same as equal friction method.

thanks abbynormal, that is really helpful!

its old freezer. thanks

Check put ASHRAE Std 62 for ventilation requirements and apply to load calculations. Compare with manufacturers equipment selection for maximum allowed outdoor air. - Thanks

What are the normal working pressures for R-12 refrigeration system (suction and discharge pressures)? Thanks

Try to check out ASHRAE Applications Handbook.

Try to air conditon the air to required storage temperature and provide humidity control if required. Try to checking out ASHRAE Applications Handbook.

funny abbynormal... hehehe! i guess u know less!

So were does adding the "k" come from...knowledge??? Thanks much!

What flange are used in RTR piping.

The genset is from kohlerpower. Thanks for your replies. Abbynormal, we dont have to re-invent the wheel right? I hink thats is why there are more experienced engrs and rookies like me...
