Ventilation Installation Project

TÜRCERT engineers, which serve in the context of ventilation project, guarantee to improve your infrastructure and make your ventilation projects with the best result. For ventilation projects, let us first know the ventilation systems.

Single Channel System
Single channel feeding system arrangement; transports the air to a certain number of zones. The single-channel system provides feed to all regions to provide the required low air temperature. The temperature of each zone is controlled by means of a room thermostat in the zones and a heater in the arm separation. The smallest amount of ventilation required is made by adjusting the outside air absorbers to a minimum. In extreme cold and extremely hot weather, the external air dampers are set to the lowest value, but in warm weather they may be open.

Dual Channel System
Double-channel feeding systems, two hot-cold air to each region of the two arms goes. The desired room temperature in the area
To adjust a mixture in the room are mixed in hot and cold proportions.

Return and Exhaust Systems
In the return and exhaust system, instead of the lever exits in a supply circuit, it can be characterized by a greater number of handgrip entries. The return air portion of an air conditioning channel circuit and the exhaust duct circuit of a factory are typical examples of such systems.

Air is divided into three according to the forces that provide motion:

Natural ventilation: The movement of the air and therefore the renewal depends on the temperature differences and the wind effect. (Chimney and wind effect)
Natural-mechanical ventilation: Wind-driven flue extractors are examples.
Mechanical Ventilation: In this type of ventilation, air is supplied by a fan,

Buddha 3 can be in the form;

Natural outlet with mechanical inlet (with ventilator)
Natural inlet mechanical outlet (aspirator)
Mechanical inlet and outlet (with fan and aspirator)

(*) In case of smoking inside the spaces with the sign, it is seen that the number of air regeneration or change at the time indicated in the table should be doubled.

For example ;
Assuming the height of a factory with 10 meters length 5 meters as 4 meters
10 x 5 = 50 m²
50 x 4 = 200 If the average 6 air exchange is taken as the number of air changes 10-8 in m³,
200 x 8 = 1600 is calculated in m³ / h.

Section 1. Development of Design Strategy

1. Meeting System Requirements:
In the design of the Natural Ventilation System, two important factors affecting environmental performance are taken into account.
Ventilation to maintain adequate indoor air quality,
In addition to other systems, ventilation reduces the tendency of the building to overheating, especially in summer.
The natural ventilation strategy should also be considered when designing other systems. Natural ventilation should be taken into account when building design. Factors to consider:
Adequate acoustical environment: Natural ventilation openings increase the sound penetration from the outside. This may be a decisive factor depending on the location of the building. In addition, buildings with natural ventilation contain excess bare concrete to increase the thermal capacity of the site. Large areas of this type should be carefully designed to ensure proper acoustic environment
Smoke Control: The fire safety system should be able to work integrated with the natural ventilation system, as smoke can follow the natural ventilation paths.
Health and Safety: Most natural ventilation openings will be positioned higher than the base plane. In this way, the rules of working at height shall be taken into consideration in detail.
1.1. Ventilation:
The main purpose of the ventilation is to keep the air quality at a certain level by removing the airborne pollutants in the middle or by reducing their effects.
Orientation is provided in Approved Document F to ensure the required indoor air quality. It is possible to do the ventilation above the ratios. But these high values ​​will change the perception of freshness and show itself as an increase in energy expenditure. Approved Document F contains three strategies for adequate indoor air quality:

(a) Exiting Ventilation: In order to dispose of pollutants, the internal air is expelled and replaced by external air.

(b) Whole Building Ventilation (Feeding and ejecting): Provides distribution of other pollutants and reduction of their effects

(c) Purge ventilation: Elimination of high concentrations of pollutants. This high concentration may be, for example, by a dye modification or by accident release of fuel into the environment. Cleaning ventilation is slightly stronger than the background ventilation. In addition to reducing the amount of high pollutants, it also helps to remove excess heat from the environment. It facilitates the formation of thermal comfort in the summer months.

Example Natural Ventilation Application The recommended quantity for all building ventilation is 10lt / sec (in CİBSE Guide A and Approved Document F). This amount was determined by considering the correlation between the amount of ventilation and health. Since buildings with natural ventilation do not provide a fixed ventilation value, it should be shown that equal air quality is ensured. To demonstrate this, it should be shown that the indoor air quality provided by the natural ventilation is the same as the indoor air quality provided by the fixed ventilation of the 10lt / sec person. When this calculation and measurement is done, the times when the building is full should be considered. A similar calculation can be made for variable ventilation, which is similar to natural ventilation. In both cases, the limit values ​​for the external CO2 concentration and the occupancy rate of the building must be equal. In addition, the maximum concentration obtained in natural ventilation should not exceed the maximum equal value. The indoor air quality (IAQ) tool is enclosed to illustrate how these calculations are to be performed. The figure is shown in 2.

1.1.1. Ventilation Control
If natural ventilation is to be applied to a system, the system must allow a level controllable ventilation, provided that the system is within a certain range. This range can vary from 0,5 (Air Change per Hour) to 5 times per hour. It should also be possible to close the ventilation completely when the building is empty. The main reason for air pollution, especially for people, may not be ventilated while the building is empty.

In addition to satisfying the required amount of ventilation, it should be designed to prevent disturbances which may occur due to drafts, especially in winter. In order to prevent this situation especially in offices, air inlet vents should be located at the top of the floor above 1,7m.

1.2. Control of Overheating in Summer:
The extreme temperature during the summer months is the most important factor affecting the feasibility of natural ventilation. The cooling potential of natural ventilation varies depending on prevailing seasons conditions and the thermal comfort condition of people in the building.

Predictably, natural ventilation systems can meet heat loads up to 30-40 W / m². If the climate change reaches significant levels, this estimate should be taken down. Adaptation of people to climate change can make this value unchanged. In order to achieve generally acceptable summer conditions, three main elements in design and operation are considered:
a. Good solar heat gain is prevented by making good solar control.
b. Internal earnings should be brought to reasonable levels. (human, devices, lighting)
c. During the hottest summer months, the indoor air temperature may exceed 25ºC.

However, in a well-designed building, this can be tolerated with the help of improved air movement and cooler mean radiant temperatures.

1.2.1. Sunlight control:
Next CIBSE TM³7: The improved solar control design will provide detailed information and guidance on solar control performance. Some measures may be taken to reduce overheating to a certain level.

Window size and direction: This factor is related to the overall organization of the building. Shading of windows by surrounding buildings or shading by other parts of the building can reduce solar gain.
Painting, film and coatings (for windows) As a result of new developments in glass technology, solar gain has been reduced with special coatings that do not affect the vision but only pass through specific wavelengths.
Venetian blinds: inside, intermediate or outside
Protrusions, side wings, shutters: This type of solar controls are direction dependent and may require different control types on each side. It also affects the aesthetics of the building.

The performance of these different systems (individually or together) can be counted with the number of effective total solar energy transmission or effective g-value. This value is calculated by the portion of the total solar heat gain passing through the window and shading element in the hottest time by the portion of the solar gain passing through an opening in the same conditions.

In addition to the possible effects of global warming, other effects can also lead to high internal temperatures. These effects should also be considered when designing natural ventilation. The most important effect is the heat room effect of the city with the growth of two cities. This raises the night temperatures in particular. As a result, pre-cooling of the building will be difficult with night ventilation. Detailed information on the heat chamber effect is given in CIBSE Guide A.

1.2.2. control of internal loads:
There are three important loads.
a. Load from people
b. Lighting load
c. Loads from devices.

1.2.3. Comfort Expectations Example of Natural Ventilation
What is important when evaluating overheating is to determine acceptable thermal comfort conditions. Thermal comfort; it differs with a combination of psychology and culture. Adoption comfort conditions vary depending on the activity at the interior, contact points, temperatures, air velocities and humidity.

In buildings with natural ventilation, a more variable air temperature is obtained compared to buildings with normal ventilation. But this does not mean that less comfort is achieved. In summer, air movement can be increased by means of large openings and changes in comfort perception can be made. However, excessive drafts must be avoided during this application. As seen in Figure 2, the 0.25 m / s air flow provides an 1K reduction in dry bulb temperature. These air velocities can only be applied in summer, but are a striking example of the effects of natural ventilation.

Night ventilation can be done to increase the cooling benefit. This application is based on the principle of providing pre-cooling of the building and lowering the average radiation temperature using the advantage of relatively low outdoor temperatures at night. By decreasing the average radiant temperature, comfort conditions are provided even if the air temperature increases in the area. By increasing the thermal capacity, the amount of heat that the building can store due to the increase in the average radiative temperature of each degree is increased, thus increasing the capacity of the site to provide thermal comfort conditions. The advantage of the thermal mass is shown in Figure 3. This figure shows the effect of thermal mass and night ventilation on the internal temperature. A building with a mild thermal mass without night ventilation and two night-ventilated buildings with high thermal masses can exhibit temperature differences up to 5K.

1.3. Acoustic Performance http://www.tesisat.com.tr/dokumanlar/100/TARSU_3.jpg
The presence of distinct external sources of sound is the most difficult factor in the implementation of natural ventilation. There are two main solutions to this problem:

Ventilation vents are made to the side away from the sound source. If the sound source is traffic, the opening of these openings to the non-traffic side also ensures that the natural air is clean.
Acoustic curtains can be added to the ventilation openings. Especially for schools, it is very important to have good acoustic performance with natural ventilation. BB93 offers recommendations for the combination of acoustic performance and natural ventilation. Fig. 4 shows that the acoustically-protected ventilation opening can be integrated with the window edge and environmental heating.
1.4. Natural Ventilation and Hybrid Mode
The above described the conditions for the application of natural ventilation in a building. In addition, all areas of a building must not be ventilated with the same system. Different sections, different strategies, can be applied at different times. This is called a mixed mode approach. CIBSE is described in detail in AM13. Several approaches for mixed mode are listed below.

a) Conditional Mixed Mode:
(Contingency mixed-mode)
This system is used if flexibility is needed in the neighborhood. In such systems, design should be done considering the cooling load which may increase depending on climate change or the tenant's wishes. The prediction to be made here should also include the gaps to be left on the floor and the ceiling for the installation of additional systems. The cost of additional flexibility should be compared and decided by the cost of operation and installation that will be caused by unnecessary air conditioning.

b) Regional Mixed Mode:
(Zoned mixed-mode)
This mode is taken into account for the different uses of different parts of the building. Air conditioning is applied where there is a real need. In places with low heat gain, heating and ventilation are done. This type of approach is applied to the areas where it is expected to have constant heat loss and gain during the life of the building. Such applications can create tension between users. Users of two sites with different conditions may think that the other is in better conditions and search for the right.

c) Recurrent Mixed Mode:
(Changeover mixed mode)
This mode considers that the cooling load of each space may vary between seasons. An example of this is mechanical ventilation which is used in extreme weather conditions (extreme heat or extreme cold). In warm weather natural ventilation is used. This usage eliminates the effect of drafts in winter. It also helps to pre-cool the building with night ventilation.

d) Simultaneous Mixed Mode:
(Concurrent mixed-mode)
Mechanical and Natural Ventilation provides simultaneous operation. While the mechanical system meets the need for fresh air, opening windows or openings help to cool down for summer. In addition, mechanical ventilation can be opened for night cooling and the safety shortage in natural ventilation can be eliminated. Excessive hot air in the extra natural ventilation will provide unnecessary fresh air can lead to energy wastage.

Figure 5 includes a surface flow diagram for users to be used in the selection phase.

1.5. Getting Started with Design:
If it is concluded that natural ventilation can be applied after the above mentioned, it is decided whether it is a uniform or mixed system. The next strategy goes into the design concept. 3 significant step takes place during the design phase.

a) Modeling of air flow from the entrances to the exits:
This model depends on the shape and organization of the building. In addition, the purpose of the building and the location of the building and the ventilation is also effective. For example, if there is an overly busy road on one side of the building, it would be pointless to make air inlets from that direction. In terms of pollution and air quality, air intakes should be placed in the other direction.

b) The main driving forces to be examined for the Desired Air Flow Model:
Many strategies take into account wind pressures while others take advantage of the temperature difference. In some cases a good design that can be used by fans to assist these natural forces is made to ensure that the dominant forces provide the desired flow.

c) Sizing of openings for the desired air flow and flow rate: This takes place in three stages.
1. Flow rates are calculated considering thermal comfort and air quality.
2. The position and size of the openings are calculated to provide these flow rates in design conditions.
3. Control system should be designed for automatic operation of the system in various occupancy rates and weather conditions.

Purpose of sprinkler system; It is the discharge of a specified amount of water over the design area within a certain period of time in order to ensure an early reaction to the fire and to control and extinguish the fire. The sprinkler system can also activate various emergency functions such as alerting occupants and calling the fire brigade. Sprink system; sprinkler heads, pipes, fittings and hangers, installation control valves, alarm bells, flow indicators, water pumps and emergency power supply. Sprink system components must comply with TS EN 12259.

In accordance with the “Regulation on the Amendment of the Regulation on the Protection of Buildings from Fire” published in the Official Gazette's number 10.08.2009 and date 2009 with the decision of the Council of Ministers dated 15316 and numbered 9.09.2009/27344, the situations where the sprink system is mandatory are specified in Article 96.

a) In all buildings except the residence with a building height of more than 30.50 m,

b) In residences whose building height exceeds 51.50 m,

c) In parking garages with a total area of ​​more than 600 m2 and in parking garages where more than 10 vehicles are taken by elevators,

ç) In hotels, dormitories, hostels, guesthouses and all bed facilities with a building height of more than 100 m, with more than 200 rooms or 21.50 beds,

d) In multi-storey stores, shopping, trade and entertainment places with a total area of ​​more than 2000 m²,

e) In buildings with a total area of ​​more than 1000 m2, where easily flammable and flammable materials are produced or kept, they will be protected by an automatic sprinkler system.

 

Fire detection and extinguishing projects of buildings are prepared separately from installation projects. Evacuation projects of floors with a floor area of ​​more than 2000 m2 are prepared separately from architectural projects. Evacuation projects are shown in architectural projects in other buildings. Projects; After obtaining the approval of the relevant municipal fire departments, it is approved and applied by the authorized licenses. In the event that changes or additions are deemed necessary in the projects by the municipal fire brigades, it is obligatory to state which article of this Regulation is required for the requested change or addition. On matters that need to be interpreted, require clarity or are unclear, action and application are made after the opinion of the Ministry of Public Works and Settlement is obtained.

Before starting the project, first of all, I mean the necessary cleaning of the architectural project we have, unnecessary writing, line, measurement etc. If there is, it should be deleted, a simple understandable architectural project should be created, and when we look at the project, the architectural color tones (such as number 8) are used to keep the architectural part in the background.

After the architectural cleaning is done, it is necessary to examine and know the architecture. For example, where are the mechanical rooms? Where are the shafts suitable or not? Where can I leave the fire brigade connection mouth? After you find the answers, you start to install the sprinkler. Firstly, if the architecture is large, you prepare a zoning plan. You separate the architecture zone by zone. Dry systems separate wet systems, separate zones. You will get information such as whether there will be a loop system, grid system or connection to the grid. After reaching this information, you start placing sprinklers.

You place sprinklers according to hazard classes. You place the sprinklers according to their types. If the dry line is upright sprinkler (vertical type), you put a pendent sprinkler (pendent type) symbol. In some parts you use side wall (wall type) sprinklers. When the sprinkler placement is finished, you start piping according to zoning. It will be useful for you if you work with a layer while piping.

In wet zones, the main supply pipe of the sprinkler system can address more than one fire line. If more than one zone is to be fed from the main supply pipe, a flow switch, test and drain valve and a butterfly valve with monitoring switch are placed in each zone or column line.After finishing the piping, you make the fire cabinet layouts. If you want, you can connect the fire cabinet line from the main line or you can think of it as a separate zone. After finishing the fire cabinet line, you draw the fire department connection mouth you have examined first.

After completing the procedures, you bring the entrances of all lines to the fire pump room.After placing the fire pumps in the pump room, you also show the pump suction and discharge collectors. You connect the lines you bring to the mechanical room to the discharge collector. If there are zones, internal pipe volumes are calculated. In order for the pipe internal volume to be normal, the zone must be smaller than 3000 m2 or the main line should not go too long are large-diameter main pipes that increase the internal volume of the pipe the most.The longer the main pipes go, the more pipe internal volume. After the complete piping, diameters, mechanical room placement, fire cabinets placement, fire brigade connection is made, it is reviewed again, if it is not missing, it is started to draw the diagram.After drawing the diagram, the sheet head is created and the legend is set and placed in a place in the sheet and the drawing is output.It has come to the stage of taking.

This work ; It provides reporting by authorized institutions and persons in order to determine the priority levels of the transactions to be carried out, to plan the budget and time, to carry out and follow up the transactions within a program. 

Cleanroom Tests and Measurements

Businesses operating in sectors that are important for human health are obliged to perform clean room tests to ensure that products are protected against contamination, to prevent pollution of the environment, to protect people against the environment, to protect people against microbes that will be transmitted from other people, to protect the environment against microbes to be spread from people and to protect the environment from unhealthy products.

Some pollutants are living pollutants such as bacteria, fungi, viruses and similar microorganisms. Some pollutants are inanimate and volatile substances found in the breathing air. However, whether living or inanimate, all the crusaders can be of a threat to human health. Clean room tests are performed to determine these values ​​and to determine whether the environment is appropriate.

In the test and control of the clean rooms they establish as a result of their activities, the following issues are emphasized: Is the design in accordance with internationally accepted standards? Are the quality and technical properties of the materials used conform to the standards? Do the company's clean room criteria meet standards? Are clean room pressure tests, temperature and humidity tests, particle measurement tests and other necessary tests performed? In order to obtain a sterile product, it is necessary to carry out many tests and controls from the design of the clean room to the construction.

Our company scope of surveillance servicesperforms clean room tests and measurements in accordance with the relevant regulations and standards published by domestic and foreign organizations. A few standards considered in these studies are:

  • Clean rooms and their controlled environments - Part 14644: Classification of air purity by particle concentration
  • TS EN ISO 14644-2 ... Chapter 2: Monitoring the clean room performance of airborne cleaning with particle concentration for documentation purposes
  • TS EN ISO 14644-4 ... Section 4: Design, construction and commissioning
  • TS EN ISO 14644-5 ... Section 5: Operation
  • TS EN ISO 14644-8 ... Chapter 8: Classification of airborne molecular contamination
  • TS EN ISO 14644-9 ... Section 9: Classification of surface cleanliness by particle concentration
  • TS EN ISO 14644-10 ... Section 10: Classification of surface cleaning by chemical concentration
  • TS EN ISO 14644-14 ... Section 14: Evaluation of suitability for use of equipment with particle concentration in air

 

 

Mechanical and Physical Testing

Businesses attach importance to physical and mechanical testing of their products in order to prove the quality, durability and safety of their products to their customers and at the same time to reduce the risk of product returns or product recalls. Physical and mechanical tests are carried out on the safety, stability and durability of products in a wide range of areas including consumer products, retail products and automotive.

In general, physical and mechanical product tests include stability tests, strength tests and endurance tests. These tests can be performed separately, as well as possible mechanical tests of products such as deformation, adhesion, tensile, impact and bending. All tests can be performed at any stage of the production process, from the quality tests of the raw materials used to the quality of the finished products.

Essentially, the physical tests of materials include density, magnetic property, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, specific heat and thermal expansion tests. Mechanical tests include hardness, tensile, compression, fatigue, impact and abrasion tests.

For example, tensile and compression tests between mechanical tests are performed to determine the mechanical properties of materials under static load. Tensile, compression and bending tests of materials are performed by using special test equipment.

A few standards considered in mechanical testing of materials are:

  • TS EN ISO 527-1 Plastics - Determination of tensile properties - Part 1: General principles
  • TS EN ISO 527-2 Plastics - Determination of tensile properties - Part 2: Test conditions for molding and extrusion plastics
  • TS EN ISO 1798 Polymeric materials - Flexible - Porous - Determination of tensile strength and elongation at break
  • TS EN ISO 868 Plastics and ebonite - Determination of penetration hardness by durometer (shore hardness)
  • TS EN ISO 179-2 Plastics - Determination of Charpy impact properties - Part 2: Instrument impact test
  • TS EN ISO 180 Plastics - Determination of Izod impact strength

One of the fields of activity of the organizations that provide control and inspection services is mechanical and physical tests.

Vibration Exposure Measurements

The Ministry of Labor and Social Security issued a Regulation on Protection of Employees from Vibration Risks in 2013. This regulation describes the minimum requirements that must be at work in order to protect employees from health and safety risks arising from exposure to mechanical vibration. During the preparation of the said regulation, the directive 2002 / 44 / EC published in the European Union countries was taken as basis.

Definitions mentioned in the Regulation are as follows:

  • Whole-body vibration is a mechanical vibration that, when spread to the entire body, creates hazards to the health and safety of the worker, particularly discomfort in the lumbar region and spine.
  • Hand-arm vibration is a mechanical vibration that, when spread to the hands and arms of the body, poses a danger to the health and safety of the worker, causing joint, bone, vessel, nerve and muscle disorders.
  • The exposure action value is the value that, if exceeded, requires the control of hazards arising from the exposure of the worker to vibration.
  • Exposure limit value is the value that employees should not be subjected to any vibration above.

In the said regulation, exposure action values ​​and exposure limit values ​​are determined as follows:

  • For hand-arm vibrations,
    • Daily exposure limit for eight hours of operation, 5 m / s2
    • Daily exposure action value for eight hours run time, 2,5 m / s2
  • For all body vibrations,
    • Daily exposure limit for eight hours of operation, 1,15 m / s2
    • Daily exposure action value for eight hours run time, 0,5 m / s2

Employers are required to carry out risk assessment in the workplace, to measure the level of mechanical vibration to which workers are exposed, and to determine the exposure values ​​to mechanical vibration. These measurements are carried out in accordance with the Regulation on Laboratories for Measurement, Testing and Analysis of Occupational Hygiene. Businesses are obliged to eliminate the risks arising from exposure at source or to minimize their effects. In this context, it is required to select other operating methods if necessary, to use work equipment with the lowest possible vibration, to provide auxiliary equipment to reduce the impact of vibrations, or to implement appropriate maintenance programs for the work equipment.
