2.1.3SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
a) Water side system.
One of reasons that many chilled-water systems are installed using the
primary-secondary configuration is that, in the past, chillers could not respond
well to varying water flow through the evaporator. Therefore, the production
loop was designed for a constant flow through the chillers, and the distribution
loop was designed for variable flow to take advantage of the pump energy.
Alternatively, in a variable-primary-flow (VPF) system, the flow of water varies
throughout the entire system-through the evaporator of each operating chiller
as well as through the cooling coils. The VPF system differs from the primary-
secondary system in that it no longer hydraulically decouples the two loops.
The variable-flow pumps move the water through the entire system. The
primary benefit of this system is the elimination of the separate distribution
pumps and the associated electrical and piping connections. There is also a
small reduction in operating cost because there is seldom excess water flowing
through the bypass pipe.
A chilled water system provides chilled water for cooling purposes to all the AC
equipment such as PAU, AHU, FCU, etc and is thus an integral part of a
building management system. So basically the cooling achieved by
theseequipment solely depends on the chilled water supplied by the chillers.
These AHUs, FCUs will be equipped with automatic balancing valve and

motorized modulating valve that is to maintain water flow rate and adjust
water flow rate in order to meet the room temperature setting point. A
motorized modulating bypass valve will be installed in main supply and return
chilled water pipes that functions to allow chillers reduce cooling load and
water pumps will be reducing water flow accordingly.
All PAUs, AHUs and FCUs will be equipped with flexible connections ensure that
they are working smoothly and eliminate vibration.
All PAUs, AHUs and FCUs will be built-in and/ or installed an external drain
span in order to collect condensate water and run-off through drainage system
and to be collected in storage tank and re-use for cooling tower make up
water. Those drain spans shall be fabricated by stainless steel gage 304.
As the total cooling load depends on many factors (outside temperature,

occupancy, temperature setpoints of rooms and spaces, etc.)The chillers are
controlled according to the return header water temperature in such a way
that if the return header temperature rises over a given setpoint e.g. 10C,
first chiller is started. If the cooling capacity of one chiller is not enough, then
another one is started, and so on. The inlet and outlet temperatures (TE1 and
TE2) of a single chiller are measured for monitoring purposes.
Chiller water will be distributed to the Hotel and Public & Back of House area
by central chilled water pumping system. The designed and installed system
shall have the minimum features as below;
Chillers
Electric water cooled centrifugal (> 300 tons) or rotary screw chillers
(<300 tons) with factory mounted starters and microprocessor
controls. Chillers shall utilize R134a refrigerant.
Capacity Selection: If two chillers are used, select each at 65% of peak
load. For projects with peak load greater than 1,600 tons, select three
chillers at 40%
Efficiency Range: Centrifugal chillers shall not exceed 0.54 kW/ton at
full load. Screw chillers shall not exceed 0.68 kW/ton at full load.
Specify NPLV part load efficiencies.
Water Temperatures: Chilled water supply 7C and return 12C.
Variable Frequency Drives (VFD): Provide VFD on one chiller for either
of the following conditions
An individual chiller is not capable of unloading below 25% of
design capacity or
The ambient conditions allow significant hours of condenser water
temperature relief
Mounting: Install chillers on 15 cm reinforced concrete pads with
spring isolators. Provide flexible pipe connectors at inlets and outlets of
each chiller to isolate piping system.
Pumps
The Pump is Centrifugal base mounted type, 1450 rpm with premium
efficiency motor
Chilled water will be distributed to the air-conditioned areas by a
central chilled water pumping system.
Chilled water pump will be used to convey the chilled water to all FCUs,
AHUs and PAUs (And plus one additional variable speed drive for
standby). The pumps are equipped with a variable frequency drive and
will be used to provide water flow according to actual demand.
Remote differential pressures sensor will be used to manage the
pumps. Motorized two way control valves will be used to control the
chilled water flow through the coil.
Condensate water pump are equipped with a variable frequency drive
for balancing and control.(And plus one additional variable speed drive
for standby)

Piping
The chilled water & Condenser water pipes will be black steel schedule
40 (welded, screwed or grooved). Galvanized pipe: Not permitted for
HVAC systems.
If piping sizes are too small, noise levels, erosion levels, and pumping
costs can be unfavorable; if piping sizes are too large, installation costs
are excessive. Therefore, pipe sizes are chosen to minimize initial cost
while avoiding the undesirable effects of high
Velocities.
Size water piping based on the following.
Pipe size (mm) If

50 and smaller 1.2 m/s (maximum)
velocity in chilled, hot
condenser piping
50 and larger 2.4 m/s (maximum)
velocity in chilled, hot
condenser piping
Pressure Drop: 11.96 kPa per 30.5 m maximum pipe pressure drop in
any system.
Table 5 Pipe size compliance with velocity assignment
Di-electric Unions: Provide for connections of different materials.

Victualic style 47 dielectric waterway fittings may be provided.
Chilled water supply, Return and Condensate drains will be insulated
by Closed cell thermal insulation of thickness based on pipe diameter
as follows
Pipe size (mm) The Insulation of thickness (mm)

25-50 25 (minimum)

complete control of chillers, chilled water pumps, condenser water pumps, and
cooling towers with contact point for external connection to Building
Management System (BMS).

NOTE 1. WC flushing cisterns with single or dual flush control have the
same loading unit.
NOTE 2. The wash basin loading unit is for pillar taps and the larger unit is
applicable to situations such as schools and those offices where there is a
peak period of use. Where spray taps are installed, an equivalent
continuous demand of 0.04 L/s per tap should be assumed.
NOTE 3. Urinal demand is very low and is normally disregarded.
NOTE 4. Clothes washing machines and dishwashing machines in
individual dwellings can be assessed as sinks fitted with taps of nominal
size .
NOTE 5. Outlet fittings for industrial purposes or requiring high peak
demands to be met should be taken into account by adding 100% of their
flow rate to the design flow rate for other appliances obtained by using
loading units.

nozzle agent distribution network. It is listed with Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc. (UL).
The system is capable of automatic detection and actuation and/or
remote manual actuation. Additional equipment is available for
mechanical or electrical gas line shut-off applications.

The detection portion of the fire suppression system allows for
automatic detection by means of specific alloy rated fusible links, which,
when the temperature exceeds the rating of the link, the link separates,
allowing the regulated release to actuate.
A system owners guide is available containing basic information
pertaining to system operation and maintenance. A detailed technical
manual is also available including system description, design,
installation, recharge, and maintenance procedures, plus additional
equipment installation and resetting instructions.
The system is installed and serviced by authorized distributors that are
trained by the manufacturer.
The basic system consists of an regulated release assembly which
includes a regulated release mechanism and a wet chemical storage
tank housed within a single enclosure. Nozzle blow-off caps, detectors,
cartridges, agent, fusible links, and pulley elbows are supplied in
separate packages in the quantities need- ed for fire suppression
system arrangements.
Additional equipment includes remote manual pull station, mechanical
and electrical gas valves, pressure switches, and electrical switches for
automatic equipment and gas line shut-off. Accessories can be added
such as alarms, warning lights, etc., to installations where required.
Tanks can be used in multiple arrangements to allow for larger hazard
coverage. Each tank is limited to a listed maximum amount of flow
numbers.
