Purpose of Pumping Systems

Transport sufficient water through the piping system at the minimum differential pressure that will satisfy all connected loads at different load conditions

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 30

Why balanced flow is important?

Drawback of unbalanced system: Cannot meet the design flow and capacity at the air terminal unit Waste energy Short circuit (hydronic) Chiller hunting
2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 31

How to balance the system?

Add Balancing Device


Fixed orifice Manual balancing valves Constant flow valve Pressure Independent control valve
Remember

Flow rate Q = Cv A P

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 32

Method 1 & 2 The manual balancing valve (Similar as orifice)

Is an adjustable orifice - not a flow controller. Must be manually adjusted according to pressure differential. Introduces manual error into system performance.

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 33

The manual balancing valve adjustment


Requires special equipment and training on procedure. Have to access valves on-site in ceilings etc. Commissioning after installation, system filling, & pump commissioning. Requires time for commissioning. Difficult to re-balance if the project completion will be in staged or modified

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 34

The manual balancing act


As a manual valve is adjusted, it not only changes the coil flow, it changes the total flow in the common pipe. The pressure differentials and flows across parallel circuits are upset and then must be re-adjusted.
It will be a static system, cannot response to a dynamic or variable flow system
Pressure differential & flow across the valve increased

Valve throttled & flow reduced

Slide 35

Common pipe flow & pressure loss will be reduced

Branch and risers in Manual balancing system

Dont forget those additional regulating valves:

Branches Risers

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 36

Method 1 & 2 The manual balancing valve (Similar as orifice)

Flow rate Q = Cv A P
After commissioning or adjustment of the manual balancing valves, the Cv and A (area) of each valve is fixed. The flow rate will then be pressure dependent.

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 37

Method 3 Constant Flow valve


Characteristic
Below the control range the cartridge is a fixed orifice & flow can be varied by a 2 way control valve In the dP control range, flow is limited to design +/-5%

Differential Pressure (dP) Range Maximum kPaD

Range Minimum kPaD 0 0 Flow Design Maximum


Slide 38

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

By using constant flow valve


PRO Less valves (not required in branch and riser) Reduce T&C work and time CON Flow modulating depend on control valves in part load Not fully dynamic balancing system

Either in 2-way or 3-way control valves system

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 39

Method 3 Constant Flow valve


Flow rate Q = Cv A P
After installation of the constant flow valves, the (Cv A) of each valve will compensate the variation of the (P). The flow rate will then be kept constant.

However, it is suitable for the constant flow application like, Constant flow chillers and pumps Most of the FCU application (constant flow)

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 40

Method 4 Pressure Independent Control Valve

Pressure independent control valve Function:1. System pressure independent 2. Flow rate Modulating control 3. Pre-set maximum flow
2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter Slide 41

Pressure Independent Control Valve Characteristic


valve will then hold the flow rate constant regardless of the change in pressure differential.

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Flow rate varies according to the temp controller or DDC input signal (2-10V or 4-20mA)

Pre-set Maximum flow for each AHU


Slide 42

System using Pressure Independent Control valve


Characteristic
Less valves, combine the control function. Elimination of branch balancing valves & reverse return pipe work. Valve authority = 100% Pre-set the max flow of each AHU and save lot of time in commissioning work. No need to re-balance the system even the project is staged or modified.

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 43

Method 4 Pressure Independent Control Valve

Flow rate Q 1%

Q 100% = (Cv A)

1-100

After installation of the pressure independent control valves, the (Cv A) of each valve will compensate the variation of the (P) at various load at any time. The flow rate will then be pressure independent, only temperature / load dependent

It is suitable for most of the modulating control applications, AHUs Precise flow control FCUs

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 44

What happen when the system is in part load?

The pumping system will be required to operate under various load conditions Variable flow system differential pressures throughout the system will be dynamic. Hydronic systems should be hydraulically modeled to design for full load and part load performance

Slide 46

What happen in typical Control valve for part load condition

Valve must be perfectly sized to provide exact resistance for pressure differential when fully open to provide design flow

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 47

Typical Control valve for part load


Typical Control Valve is Pressure Dependence
Standard 2 way valves vary opening area only but not flow. As pressure differential varies, the flow varies.

Q = dP * Orifice constant

2007 ASHRAE Hong Kong Chapter

Slide 48

Control valve for part load


Once below design flow, as each 2-way control valve reduces flow, it increases the pressure differential and flows across parallel circuits.

System pressure varies affect the flowrate passing through valves and coils The temperature is then altered due to the pressure fluctuation.
