JMP is excited to announce our new technical HVAC magazine! It is a great resource to get bite-sized educational pieces similar to the content featured in our seminars. Register to have the latest blog sent to your email address.
Has your state adopted ASHRAE 90.1-2010 or beyond into its commercial building code? If so, then it is highly likely that you should be incorporating either waterside or airside economizing into your cooling design. The Standard has effectively made air or waterside economizing a requirement in virtually every…
Read MoreIn our last blog we suggested incorporating IPLV (Integrated Part Load Values) into your cooling tower lifecycle cost analysis. Next, we need to fill in wet bulb temperatures that correspond with the part load conditions we’ve identified and already added to our lifecycle worksheet. …
Read MoreCreating a reasonable load profile is essential for calculating and then comparing lifecycle costs of specific cooling towers, including various brands and/or models within a specific brand. To do that we have to estimate the number of hours a cooling tower will operate at …
Read MoreIn our last blog we ended with this cooling tower life cycle worksheet (shown below) with one data point complete, the 20-year life expectancy of our “example” cooling tower. Now let’s fill in a few more blanks, starting with …
Read MoreIt is important that engineers be able to compare cooling towers (brands and configurations) in terms of both equipment and life cycle cost. Just as important, that comparison needs to be based on realistic operating parameters. At JMP we’ve developed a method that lets engineers…
