Awarded a contract for the supply of 689 chilled beams for a city central redevelopment in Adelaide, Fläkt Woods has selected its range of Flexicool beams.
The products are double width QPSA passive beams (580mm wide) and said to be flexible and easily adaptable to meet most requirements. They cool a room by means of convection.
An upgraded Econet energy recovery system has been launched by Fl?kt Woods. The changes have made it 70-75% efficient ? this is 50% more efficient than plate heat exchangers ? and more versatile than other HVAC systems the company says. It integrates energy recovery, heating and cooling into one set of coils so other components are not needed.
Offering design, product supply, installation and comissioning from a single source, a trading agreement has been signed between Fl?kt Woods, Interactive Ventilation and Fire Engineering Associates.
The offering will cover smoke ventilation schemes, pressurisation and smoke dulution systems and fume and smoke control.
Supplying air handling units to the Civil Justice Centre , Manchester, Flakt Woods products will feed the courts and waiting areas of the 34,000m? building. In total, 20 EU 2000 models are being installed, capable of airflow rates up to 15m?/s with thermal wheels, cooling and heating coils. The company's products had to be high efficiency and low speed to meet the noise levels required in court areas.
Fans from Flakt Woods have been specified to ventilate Heathrow Airport's new Terminal 5 building. In excess of 200 of the company's JM fans have been ordered. A variety of different diameter high temperature fans are to be delivered, ranging from 500mm to 1,400mm in width, and capable of withstanding temperatures of 300?C for 2hr. The large open spaces and extensive use of glazing to control noise pollution means the fans have to be efficient and effective at venting, within strict acoustic parameters.
Some 50 JM Aerofoil car park fans have been supplied by Fl?kt Woods as a ventilation solution for the extension to D?sseldorf Airport. The JM car park jets are being provided for the main supply and extract of the car parking area. The company claims that the car park jet fan system was demonstrated to offer a saving of around 50% over a traditional ducted system, as well as being simpler to install. Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) analysis has been used in the design to optimise the installation, providing improved smoke extraction in a fire situation.
Featuring an ?intelligent? control system, iFan from Fl?kt Woods regulates the amount of energy required to operate the system. The control unit is built into every iFan, reducingenabling times and cutting installation costs. ?Plug and play? sensor connectors simplify installation for remote functions.
