    Encon Basement Ventilation

    This document presents information on energy saving ventilation systems for the basement car park of an administrative building in Chennai, India. It compares a conventional ducted ventilation system to a modern ductless system using jet fans. The ductless system uses computational fluid dynamics to optimally position jet fans, which are controlled by carbon monoxide sensors. This results in lower energy costs as only localized fans operate based on need. Calculations estimate the ductless system would save over 9.6 lakh rupees annually in operating costs compared to the ducted system, with a payback period of about 2 years for the additional capital costs.

    ENERGY SAVING

    BASEMENT CAR PARK VENTILATION

    THE ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDING AT

    ADMIN BUILDING AT GREAMS ROAD,


    CHENNAI
    Proposed Hi-Tech Admn. Bldg Consists of 2
    Towers- G+8 / G+5 and has a common lower
    and upper level Basement
    Capacity of Basement Parking for 157 cars &
    97 two-wheelers.
    Area of Basement (covers Towers 1&2)
    Lower Basement
    Upper Basement

    4664 sq.m
    4437 sq.m

    Ceiling height of basements -

    2.2 Mtr
    2

    Car Parking area in Basements are fully


    enclosed.
    Enclosed Under-ground parking area requires
    Mechanical Ventilation.
    In absence of Ventilation, Parking facility
    presents several Internal Air Quality problems.
    Most serious is the emission of high levels of
    Carbon-Monoxide(CO)
    CO is easily absorbed by Haemoglobin in
    Human Blood and can Inhibit Oxygen delivery to
    Body and can cause adverse health effects
    varying from headache to death
    3

    The NATIONAL BUILDING CODE OF INDIA 2005


    Specifies the following parameters for Ventilation:
    CO level- within 29mg/cu.m (25 ppm) with
    Peak level not to exceed 137 mg/cu.m.(125 ppm)
    As per ASHRAE Max Level for CO
    8 hrs exposure 25ppm
    1 Hour exposure- 35 ppm
    Air change requirement as per NBC for Basement Car
    Parking :
    9 to 12 ACPH under normal conditions
    ( For Design purpose 10 ACPH is used)
    30 ACPH in case of fire emergency

    DUCTED VENTILATION
    The Conventional Ventilation System is
    the ducted Ventilation system. This has:
    -Provision of Fresh air fan and Exhaust Air
    Fans with ducting arrangement as per
    requirement.
    - To be operated based on timing control.
    - Full capacity of Fans has to be operated
    irrespective of Smoke level or CO
    Concentration.
    5

    DUCTLESS VENTILATION
    The Modern method of Ventilation system is the Ductless Ventilation
    system in which :
    - No Ducts are required.
    - Only Fresh Air Fans, Exhaust Air Fans and Jet Fans
    required.
    - CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis, is
    utilised to decide the number and location of Jetfans for
    effective and optimum performance.
    - A group of approximately 4 Nos of Jet Fans are
    controlled by one CO Sensor and Integrated with IBMS.
    - When the CO level exceeds threshold value, CO Sensors extends
    signal to IBMS and accordingly the corresponding group of Jet Fans
    are triggered.
    - When CO level exceeds threshold value in approximately 50% of
    CO Sensors per Basement , then Fresh Air/ Exhaust Fans are
    switched ON through IBMS along with jet fans

    ADVANTAGES OF DUCTLESS
    VENTILATION
    No ducts: duct system and accessories are
    eliminated.
    Improved air quality and efficient Operation
    Optimum use of Car Park Space & Optimisation of
    Head room for Vehicles and Pedestrians.
    Flexibility in installation,quicker installation
    Effective smoke management
    During Fire Conditions, the volume of air to be
    handled is of the order of 1.25 lakh CFM. Under this
    situation ductless system fares better compared to
    ducted system.

    How energy saving is achieved in


    Ductless Ventilation?
    Ducts are associated with pressure drop,hence
    higher size F.A/E.F. are reqd.
    Jetfans are located using CFD Analysis in a
    manner that they help FA/EF to suck/exhaust air
    respectively, hence smaller size(HP) FA/EFreqd.
    During low traffic in Basement, depending upon
    CO level concentration, only a group of Jetfans
    may be switched ON by IBMS to distribute/
    dilute CO concentration, while in ducted system
    higher capacity FA/EF have to be kept ON most
    of the time.

    Operating Cost :
    Assumption : All Fans Operation for 2 Hours (Peak
    Hour), for Balance 6 Hours (Lean Period) Half an Hour
    ON & Half an Hour OFF.
    So, Total operating time=5 hrs/day.
    Total unit consumption assuming 5hrs operation/day
    =134.7 KW x 5 hrs = 673.5 KWH/day.
    Running cost per annum assuming Rs.7/- per unit rate
    = 673.5 x 25 days X 12 months X Rs.7/-

    = Rs. 14,14,350/- per annum.
