" But when along train of abuses and usurpations, pursing inviably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism , it is their right, it is their duty to throw of such their goverment and provide new guards for their fucture security."

      1. Chillers
      2. Chilled Water Pumps
      3. Condenser Water Pumps
      4. Cooling Towers
    • ဒီ Equipment ေလးမ်ိဳး အတြက္ တစ္မ်ိဳးစီ ရဲ့ kW/RT ကို တြက္ထုတ္ေပးရမွာ ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။ ဒါေတြကို မတြက္ေသးခင္ ARI 550 မွာသတ္မွတ္ထားတဲ့ Standard Condition မွာ ရွိတဲ့ Water Flowrate ေတြ ကို မိတ္ဆက္ေပးလိုပါတယ္။

    • ဒါဆိုရင္ GM Ver 4.0:2010, pg-101 မွာရွိတဲ့ Method A: Calculation နဲ႔တြဲၿပီး ဆက္လက္ ေလ့လာ နားလည္လို႔ ရပါၿပီ။
  2. Minimum Energy Efficiency Requirements for Equipments
    • ပထမ သိသင့္တာ ကေတာ့ Singapore Regulation (Codes) အရ အနည္းဆံုး ရရွိရမဲ့ Efficiency ေတြကိုပါ။ ဒီေနရာ မွာ Water-Cooled Chilled-Water Plant at Reference Standard Condition ေပၚမူတည္ၿပီး Code Compliance အတြက္ Minimum Efficiency ကိုတြက္ထုတ္ ထားတာ ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။ ဒီေနရာ မွာ ဒီေနရာမွာ GM Ver 4.0:2010, pg-101 မွာရွိတဲ့ Method A: Calculation က Plant Configuration အတြက္ တြက္ထားတာ ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။
    1. Minimum Efficiency required for Chillers
      Ref: SS530:2006. pg 14: for Chiller ≥ 1055kW : COP > 6.1
      3.517 kW/RT ÷ 6.1 kW/kW (COP) = 0.577 kW/RT
      Therefore: Minimum Chiller Efficiency ≤ 0.58 kW/RT
    2. Minimum Efficiency required for Chilled Water Pumps
      Ref: SS553: 2009: pg.22: For chilled water system 349 kW/m³/s
      Water Flowrate: 0.1514 l/s.RT (at ARI 550: Standard Condition)
      0.1514 l/s.RT × 349 kW/m³/s × 1 / 1,000 m³/l = 0.053 kW/RT
      Therefore: Minimum Chilled Water Pumps Efficiency < 0.053 kW/RT
    3. Minimum Efficiency required for Condenser Water Pumps
      Ref: SS553: 2009: pg.22: For condenser water system 301 kW/m³/s
      Water Flowrate: 0.18925 l/s.RT (at ARI 550: Standard Condition)
      0.18925 l/s.RT × 301 kW/m³/s × 1 / 1,000 m³/l = 0.057 kW/RT
      Therefore: Minimum Condenser Water Pumps Efficiency < 0.057 kW/RT
    4. Minimum Efficiency required for Cooling Towers
      Ref: SS530:2006. pg 15: for Propeller or Axial Fan Cooling Tower ≥ 3.23 l/s.kW
      Water Flowrate: 0.18925 l/s.RT (Same as Condenser Water Pumps)
      0.18925 l/s.RT ÷ 3.23 l/s.kW = 0.059 kW/RT
      Therefore: Minimum Cooling Tower Efficiency < 0.059 kW/RT
    • အထက္က တြက္ခဲ့တဲ့ Minimum Efficiency ေတြ က Equipment တစ္မ်ိဳးစီ အတြက္သာ ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။ အားလံုး စုတဲ့ အခါမွာ ေတာ့ ဒါေတြ ကိုေပါင္းလို႔ ရတဲ့ 0.75 kW/RT ( 0.58+0.053+0.057+0.059 ) အစား အနည္းဆံုး GM Certified အတြက္ 0.7 kW/RT ရကိုရရမယ္ လို႔ သတ္မွတ္ထားတာပါ။

        ηm = Motor Efficiency
        သူ႔ရဲ့ မူရင္း က ေတာ့
      • ဒီေနရာမွာ VSD ရဲ့ Efficiency ကို ထည့္မတြက္ေသးတာ ေတြ႕ရပါတယ္။

    3. Condenser Water Pumps Efficiency
      • Water Flowrate : အေပၚမွာ တြက္ျပထားတဲ့ Condenser Water Flowrate ကိုပဲ အေျခခံပါတယ္။

  4. Ways to Improve to achieve better Operation Efficiencies and Performances
    1. Sizing the Chiller Plant Right
      • Full Load အတြက္သာ မက Part Load အတြက္ပါ သင့္ေတာ္တဲ့ Chiller Plant အရြယ္ နဲ႔ အေရအတြက္ ကို ေရြးခ်ယ္ရပါမယ္။ လိုအပ္တဲ့ Chillers ေတြ ကိုလည္း ဒီ အေျခအေန ႏွစ္ခု စလံုးအတြက္ သင့္ေတာ္ေအာင္ ေရြးခ်ယ္ရမွာ ျဖစ္ပါတယ္။
    2. Selecting High Efficiency Equipments, Know Their Nature and Reserve Space for Them
      1. Chillers
        Select High efficiency Chillers.
        Optimize Size and Quantity Combination. Chillers of different capacities have different efficiencies, optimize them.
        Optimize the refrigerant choice: Choose Higher Efficiency Refrigerant if favorable
        Consider and check for Part Load efficiency
        Watch out for Life Cycle Cost and Initial Investment Cost

        Chiller Efficiency Improve with;
        1. Lower Condenser Water Entering Temperature
        2. Higher Chilled Water Supply Temperature
        3. Higher Chilled Water Return Temperature
        4. Higher Chilled-Water ΔT (Temperature Difference)
        Check the efficiency changes for Different Chilled Water Supply/Return Temperature and Entering Condenser Water Temperature Humidity vs High Chilled Water Supply Temperature High dT vs FCU, Air Side
      2. Chilled Water Pumps
        Select the optimum pump size and Use VSD when required to vary the flowrate
        Select high efficiency pumps and motors
        Common Header Pumping (or) One-to-One Pumping
        Primary Only? Or Primary + Secondary

      3. Condenser Water Pumps
      4. Cooling Towers
        Check for Optimum Efficiency
        Get Space for Cooling Tower Performance, prevent hot-moist air short circuit. May utilize VSD however if Chiller Efficiency improve better with Lower Condenser Water Temperature Choose Constant Speed.
        Over-sizing Cooling Tower a little bit will save a lot.
        Bad Cooling Tower Performance : It will drag the whole chiller plant down.
        Don't let Architects give less space than required for cooling tower, don't let them cover or enclose it with decoration. (Major Mistake)
        Cooling Tower ေဘးမွာ ေနရာေတြ အမ်ားႀကီး လြတ္ေနတယ္ လို႔ ထင္တယ္။ Cooling Tower က အရုပ္ဆိုးတယ္ လို႔ထင္တယ္။ Trellis ေတြ၊ Louver ေတြ နဲ႔ ကာတယ္။ အသံလုံေအာင္ ဆိုၿပီး နံရံေတြ နဲ႔ ကပ္ပစ္တယ္။

      5. VSD: Is it Better (or) Not ?


        VSD good for Close Loop Pumps with Little or No Static Head
        VSD Good for Fans
        Power Varies proportional to the Cube of Flowrate
        However, Lowering Condenser Water Temperature may offset the fan power
        Condenser Water Temperature and VSD
        Condenser Water Pump and VSD



    3. Arranging the equipments and Piping to improve efficiency

      Cooling Tower closer to Chillers (However, Cooling Tower Should not be below the Chiller to prevent System drain to Cooling Tower)
      Provide sufficient space for Cooling Tower. Don't let Architects give less space than required for cooling tower, don't let them cover or enclose it with decoration. (Major Mistake)
      Size the Pipes to Lower Friction Loss (reduce Flow Velocity, Note: It will not Lower equipment Friction Losses)
      Use the fittings with Lower Head Loss
      Use minimum bends (elbows means head loss)


    4. Optimizing System Design and Operating Parameters
      Common Header Pumping (or) One-to-One Pumping
      Optimizing chilled water supply temperature and increasing delta T
      Maintain DT
      Improve Condenser Water Temperature
      Use redundant Cooling Tower to Improve Approach (or) Condenser Water Temperature
      Increasing pipe sizes to decrease pump heads (Note: It will not Lower equipment Friction Losses)
      Simulation with weather profile, instead of extreme design condition
      There will be Cost and other system performance impacts associated with any changes in design parameters.
