    CV Valve

    Thanks Goober Dave. I appreciate the input. The Cv vs valve position is exactly what im looking for. The only thing i can find is wide open Cv. The Ashrae characteristic curve show the % flow vs valve travel. But no Cv...i wonder if that %flow on the y-axis is also the %Cv???

    How Fast

    Can anyone tell me a simple way to figure out how fast the space temperature will rise based solely on a given constant heat source in the space, ignoring other contributors such as walls.....

    CV Valve

    I have been looking at these sites you receommnded, but i have not found a Cv vs %valve open , or "pressure drop vs valve open"??? for a typical 3/4" to 1/1/4" globe control valve.... are there any more site you can recommend for this??? i did found the formula for the %flow vs %valve travel for...

    Electrical Room Ventilation

    Thanks to all. It is basically transformers. CFM = (42KW x 3412)btuH / (1.08 x 10 delta T F) = ~13,300 cfm at peak so It will cycle at say 10F ambient, right? so instead of that, with VFD at 10F outside i just need 1,560 cfm air not the full 13,300 with 95F inside. .... Does this argument...

    Water SYstem Delta T

    There is no chiller in this scheme. Basically just cooling tower.

    Electrical Room Ventilation

    Thanks to all who comment...it appear the vfd is better approach and maybe less expensive...so the fan will basicallyt ramp down to what the cfmm is needed to maintain 90 or 95F in the room and the above the 95F then it will run full speed....Thanks again

    Lagoon Heat Rejection System

    Here in our site, we have man made pond system where we reject heat into...but the pond circulate to another pond using spray and pump system to have better heat transfer...and i think its roughyl the same depth.....there is actually a pond design manual generated by one of our engineers here...

    Water SYstem Delta T

    HAs anyone experience any water system delta T as high as 50F delta??? Typical one i see is about 15F to 20F at most....The driving force for the delta T, of course, is the load,....i was told that in Europe they have systems that goes as high as 50F delta T.... By process water, i meant the...

    CV Valve

    Thanks for the responses.

    Electrical Room Ventilation

    Thanks again, i appreciate the comment. The space is sandwich between two airconditioned space....i assumed that the room load is very small compared to the 42 kw equipment heat

    CV Valve

    Thanks for the response....is there a site somewhere where i can see the Cv at different valve opening for a generic globe valve 1-1/4" and below??? I spent some time but couldnt find any...not even from valve manufacturer... I appreciate any response...

    CV Valve

    Does the control valve CV change when the valve throttle ?? or is it the same Cv ?

    Electrical Room Ventilation

    Thanks again, i appreciate the comment. the desired is so as not to use as much airflow during the colder ambient. If i just have one speed 13,000 cfm fan, at low outdoor air, the space will be colder and the fan might just cycle on space temperature. Maybe ths is not the proper way?? So for...

    Electrical Room Ventilation

    Thanks for the response....I also will need a direct drive on one corner of this area where maintenance is a big issue, but there are no 2 speed direct drive fan...so im thinking now of getting that 13,000 cfm direct drive fan single speed on the said corner, and then a 8,000 hi/4,000 low, two...

    100 KVA UPS heat dissipation

    I had this exact situation and was told that the heat dissipation from UPS is basically constant....

    Electrical Room Ventilation

    i have an application where i need 13,000 cfm for an electrical room with a 42KW heat dissipation. I assumed about 10 degree temperature rise in space for this...is this true? or is it more like 12degF rise. ..so for a 95 Ambient outside, the space inside willbe arounf 105F...?? Also, im...
