ENERGY SAVING PROPOSAL No. 1

REDUCE THE STATIC PRESSURE SET POINT IN AHU


During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, the AHUs were studied
in detail to identify opportunities for performance improvement.
Background
Around 46 Air Handling Units (AHUs) are installed at TSI Waverock for
providing conditioned air to the rooms. These air handling units were
studied in detail and the following activities were carried out during the
study:
1. Static pressure measurement for filters
2. Checking of actuators
3. Power Measurements
4. Checking of CO2 sensors
The VFDs for all the AHUs have been installed with discharge pressure of
fan outlet as feedback control. The upper cut off frequency for the VFD is
set at 45 Hz. Currently, all the fans are operating at the higher cut off
limit of 45 Hz. The static pressure feedback to VFD is manually set to a
value of 500 Pa.

The static pressures of majority of the AHUs (as mentioned in the table)
were found to be operating in the range of 380 500 Pa. The values of
static pressure which are operating higher than 220 Pa have been
highlighted in grey color in the table above. This higher static pressure
was maintained with the help of a static pressure set point from the BMS.
The BMS signal of maintaining static pressure set point was manually
entered to a value of 500 Pa. In order to maintain this high static
pressure; all the AHU fan VFDs are running at its maximum cut off point
of 45 Hz.
Operating VFD at higher frequency of 45 Hz leads to increased air flow,
which in turn leads to lower retention time of air in the cooling coil. This
leads to lesser cooling effect in AHUs. The power consumed by AHU fans
also increases, when the VFD is operated at 45 Hz.
The static pressure set point of the fans can be reduced atleast to 270 Pa,
which will reduce the operating speed of the fan with the help of VFD and
will also result in reduced power consumption of AHU fans. The power
consumed by centrifugal fans is proportional to the square of the head
developed by the fan. Changing static pressure set point closer to the
design value will facilitate in reduced power consumption. The value of
270 Pa is taken to obtain the energy savings on a conservative basis.
Recommendations
We recommend the following:
Change the static pressure set point of all AHUs to 270 Pa
o The VFD of AHU fans will automatically operate to achieve the
static pressure
o Atleast 33 kW can be saved in all AHU fans
Once the fans are operating at 270 Pa discharge pressure successfully,
the static pressure value can be set to operate close to the design
value of 220 Pa.

Benefits
The saving potential of 33 kW is available. The annual saving potential of
Rs. 5.20 Lakhs is possible. There is no investment required for this
proposal.

ENERGY SAVING PROPOSAL No. 2

OPTIMIZE THE COOLING TOWER OPERATION FOR


CHILLER CONDENSERS
During the detailed energy audit of TSI waverock, the condenser water
flow to chiller was studied in detail. Possible opportunities of reducing the
power consumption by further reducing the cooling tower cold well
temperature and by optimizing the condenser water flow to improve sub cooling was studied.
Background
In TSI Waverock, 3 nos of cooling towers have been installed for cooling
condenser water for chillers. Out of 3 cooling towers one or two cooling
towers are usually kept in operation and the rest is kept in stand by
condition. Each cooling tower has 4 fans of which 2 are usually in
operation. The condenser water flows through all the cells of the cooling
tower including the cells in which, the fans are not operated.
Optimizing cooling tower operation
VFDs were installed for all the CT fans. CII congratulates the TSI
waverock team for this excellent initiative. CII and Plant team jointly
studied the further possible energy saving opportunities in the fans. It
was observed during the audit that the fans are manually operated at 50
Hz. Out of four fans, only 2 fans were operating in each cooling tower. The
condenser water flows through all the cells of the cooling tower and the
cold well temperature obtained from cells where fans are in operation is
27oC and the cold well temperature where the fans are not operated are
on the higher side and is more than 29oC.
The cold well temperature of the cooling tower was found to be 28 0C and
the wet bulb temperature is 21oC.The approach (Cold well temperatureWBT) of the cooling tower was calculated to be 7 oC. The ideal approach of
the cooling tower should be 4 deg C. There is a good potential to reduce
the approach of the cooling tower to 4oC by operating all the cooling tower
fans with VFD and utilizing all three cooling towers. This would reduce the
power consumed by the chiller compressor as the condenser pressure of
the refrigerant will decrease with reduction in condenser water
temperature, returning from the cooling tower.
Optimizing Condenser water flow through the Chiller
The condenser water flow was noted when 1, 2 or all 3 cooling towers
were in operation and are mentioned below. The cooling water from the
cooling tower flows through the condenser of the chiller and also through
the DX plate heat exchanger. When more number of cooling towers are
taken into line, the condenser water flow increases due to the decrease in
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

back pressure incurred by the cooling water system. The required


condenser water flow through the chiller should be 817 m 3/h(3600 gpm).
This required flow of 817 m3/h is achieved only when all 3 cooling towers
are in operation.

recommendation may lead to low sub cooling and Compressor surge
tripping. Due to low sub cooling the power consumed by the chiller
compressor increases and the additional cooling capacity which can be
obtained from sub cooling is not available.
Currently it has been observed that the sub cooling in the chiller was
very low and was not more than 0.5 oC. It was observed from the alarms
in the chiller panel that the compressor was tripping as it is reaching the
surge limit. At surge limit the centrifugal compressor reaches its peak
head capability. The system pressure after the compressor is higher than
the pressure generated by the compressor and the fluid tends to flow
back into the compressor. This surge phenomenon repeats in cycles.
Consequently, the compressor loses the ability to maintain peak load and
the system becomes unstable resulting in compressor tripping in order to
the safeguard the compressor. Surging will also result in overheating of
the compressor.
Maintaining the condenser water flow at 817 m 3/h, by operating all three
cooling towers will improve the sub cooling of the refrigerant and will
also avoid surge tripping of the chiller compressor. This may increase
some cooling water power consumption but there will be overall net
reduction in power consumption due to reduction in chiller compressor
power.
Proposed system
As explained earlier it is recommended to utilize all three cooling towers
and operate all the cooling tower fans with VFD control.

Utilizing all three cooling tower will help us in utilizing the additional
heat transfer surface area, which is available in the cooling towers
which are currently in stand by condition. Also, utilizing all cooling
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

towers will help us in maintaining the required amount of condenser


water flow for the chillers and will improve the sub cooling of the
chillers.
There is a good opportunity to improve the air water contact ratio in the
cooling tower by running all the cooling tower fans and operating them
with VFD. The sump temperature of the cooling tower can be given as a
feedback to the VFD of the cooling tower fans. The above mentioned
steps can be followed to obtain an approach of 4 oC, consistently in all the
cells of the cooling tower.
Recommendation
With the above background, to optimize the operation of cooling towers, it
is recommended to
Operate all the three cooling towers

Utilizing heat transfer are of cooling towers, currently kept as


stand by

Improves sub cooling of the refrigerant by maintaining


required amount of flow through the cooling tower

Operate all the fans in auto mode with sump temperature as feedback
for VFDs. Instead of operating two fans at full speed, operating 4 fans
at 25% percent speed would result in significant amount of power
savings

The fan power consumption will reduce proportional to the


square of speed. This results in significant savings of the power
consumed by CT fans

Atleast 28 kW can be saved

The approach of cooling towers can be reduced to 4 oC from 7oC


Overall reduction in the power consumption of Chiller compressor by
reduction in condenser pressure and better sub cooling of the
refrigerant

Atleast 60 kW can be saved

Benefits
The estimated annual savings by optimizing the cooling
performance is Rs. 15.90 Lakhs without any investment.

ENERGY SAVING PROPOSAL No. 3


IMPROVE
INSULATION
BY
HIGH
TEMPERATURE
RESISTANT PAINT TO AVOID HEAT INGRESS THROUGH
GLASS
During the Detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, Hyderabad, the
HVAC system was studied in detail to identify opportunities for energy
conservation.
Present Status
TSI Waverock has extensive glass faade on all the sides. Glass as a
medium brings natural light into the conditioned space and along with it
also allows heat ingress inside the building, which adds to the energy
spent on cooling the interiors. In TSI Waverock, Double glazed glasses are
installed to reduce the heat ingress into the building. CII congratulates
the TSI Wave rock team for the excellent initiative.
The heat transfer co-efficient for various types of glass is indicated below:
U value

SHGC (%)

Single glazed (6 mm)

6 W/m2/K

86

Double glazed

1.3 3 W/m2/K

76-63

Triple glazed glass

0.4 1.2 W/m2/K

50-26

Hence selecting the right glass is important in reducing the heat load of a
given conditioned space. An alternative to replacing double glazed
glass( which is already installed and cannot be replaced now) is coating
the glass windows and doors with insulation paints (nansulate).
The insulation paints have properties like corrosion resistance, high
adhesion and translucence. By adequate no. of insulation paint coats, the
performance of a double-glazed glass can be matched with a triple-glazed
glass without any significant reduction in visible light transmittance.
Recommendation
We recommend coating glass area in the building with translucent
insulation paints. A heat transfer co-efficient value of at least 0.7 W/m2/K
can be achieved.

Confederation of Indian Industry


CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

Benefits
The estimated annual savings by coating the glass surface area with
insulation paints is Rs. 3.39 Lakhs. The investment required is Rs. 8.00
Lakhs with a simple pay back period of 28 months.

ENERGY SAVING PROPOSAL No. 4

AVOID RECIRCULATION IN DOMESTIC WATER PUMP


During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, Hyderabad, detailed
study of the pumping systems has been conducted to identify energy
conservation opportunities.
Background
During the audit, it was observed that there are three numbers of
domestic transfer pumps installed for transferring water from domestic
water tank to two overhead tanks 1&2. One pump is in operation and the
other two pumps are used as standby.
A hydro pneumatic tank is also installed in the pumping system. The
hydro pneumatic tank is generally used for applications where overhead
tank is not installed to maintain required amount of water pressure for
different floor levels and to act as a buffer for water storage to maintain
consistent water supply. Since overhead tank is already installed in
Waverock, the hydro pneumatic tanks can be by passed.

The design specifications of the pumps are:


Design Flow

9-24 m3/hr

Design Head

163-72 meters

Confederation of Indian Industry


CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

Design kW

11 kW

Flow

28.4 m3/hr

Head

63 meters

Power Consumed

10.5 kW

The operating parameters are:

The height of the overhead tank is approximately 60 meters and is the


static head required for the pump. The pump is designed for 72 163 m
of head. This indicates that there is a mismatch between the design
specifications and the actual requirement in pump operation. Therefore
the pump is throttled to 50% to avoid excess flow and tripping of the
motor due to overload.
Presently, the design head of the pump is in the range of 72 to 163
meters and the operating head of the pump is 60 meters. The throttling of
flow indicates that the head of the pump is oversized for the existing
requirement. Energy is lost across the valve due to loss of pressure across
the valve and is reflected in the power consumed by the pump.
Also, recirculation is an inefficient method for flow control; the power
consumption of the pump remains same irrespective of the change in
demand.
In addition, the overhead tanks should installed with level sensors for
automatic control of the pump depending on the tank levels.
Installing a new pump with design parameters as below will reduce the
losses in the present system due to inefficient operation and loss across
the valve throttling. At least 2.0 kW power can be saved by avoiding
recirculation.
Design Head

65 meters

Design Flow

28 m3/hr

Design power (pump)

8.6 kW

Recommendation
Step 1:
We recommend the following changes in the domestic transfer pump:
1. Close the bypass valve completely, thereby bypassing the hydro
pneumatic system and the recirculation.
This will result in reduction of recirculation flow back to the domestic
water but also decreases the overall flow due to increase in the back

pressure. Further, valves can be opened gradually to maintain the same


flow from the tank.
Benefits
The annual energy saving potential by closing the recirculation is Rs.
0.08 Lakhs considering 5 hours of operation per day. There is no
investment required for this proposal.
Step 2:

ENERGY SAVING PROPOSAL No. 5

SEGREGATE CHILLER CONDENSER SYSTEM AND DX


CONDENSER SYSTEM
Background
During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, Hyderabad, detailed
study of the pumping systems has been conducted to identify energy
conservation opportunities.
Present System
During the audit, it was observed that separate plate heat exchangers and
supplementary cooling water pumps are installed for the water cooled
packaged DX chillers. The DX chillers are used for two lift rooms on the
terrace, in the gym and recreation areas in 2 floor and electrical load
centers in the same floor.

It was observed during the audit that the cooling water requirement to
the plate heat exchangers is being catered by the condenser pumps
installed for chiller system. The total flow of the condenser pump during
the audit was 730 m3/hr out of which 540 m3/hr (74%) is flowing through
the chiller condenser and 190 m3/hr (26%) is flowing through the plate
heat exchange. The flow through this plate heat exchanger is used to cool
the supplement water passing through DX chillers.
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

Supplementary cooling water pump is installed to circulate cooling water


through the DX units in the facility. VFD is installed for the supplementary
cooling water pump and its frequency is maintained at 41 Hz as observed
during the audit. The delta T across the plate heat exchanger was
measured to be 0.3oC in the cooling water side, which suggests that there
is excess cooling water flow in the plate heat exchangers. In addition,
there is additional pressure drop in the circuit due to the plate heat
exchangers.
Proposed system

We recommend segregating the cooling water system of the Chillers and
the DX units by removing the PHE and installing a separate pipeline from
the DX chillers to the cooling tower. The pipelines of supplementary
cooling system can be directly connected to the cooling tower. The cooling
tower water can be directly used in the DX chillers for condenser cooling.
The schematic of the proposed system is shown in the figure above.
Segregating the cooling water system of the chillers and the DX units will
avoid the circulation of 190 m3/h of water through the plate heat
exchangers used to cool the chiller condensers. After entirely closing the
valve for plate heat exchanger a certain amount of back pressure will be
created in the system, which in turn will marginally reduce the water
flowing through chiller condenser.
(As explained in previous proposal the required flow of 817 m3/h through
the chiller can be maintained only when all three cooling towers are
operated.)
Presently the delta T obtained in the supplementary cooling water system
is 0.3oC. A VFD is already installed in the supplementary cooling water
pump and by reducing the flow to 30% of the present flow using VFD, 3.0

kW savings in power consumption of supplementary water pump can be


achieved.
Recommendation:
We recommend segregating the chiller cooling water system and the DX
chillers cooling water system by installing a separate pipeline to the
cooling tower from the DX chillers.
The same cooling tower can be used and the suction to the new
supplementary cooling water pump can be taken from the return line from
the cooling tower and to the suction of the condenser water pump to the
chiller.
The delta T can be maintained at least around 3 oC by reducing the flow of
supplementary cooling water pump to at least 30% of the rated flow.

Benefits
The annual energy saving potential by segregating the cooling water
system is Rs. 0.95 Lakhs per annum. There is an investment of Rs. 0.85
Lakhs required for installation of new pump and piping cost which has a
payback period of 11 months.

ENERGY SAVING PROPOSAL No. 6

OPTIMIZE THE CHILLED WATER SYSTEM


Background
During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, Hyderabad detailed
study of the pumping systems has been conducted to identify energy
conservation opportunities.
Present System
During the audit, it was observed that one chilled water pump is utilized
to pump chilled water to both bar building and phase 2.1 building which
have different head requirements.
To compensate the flow in the phase 2.1, resistance is added by valve
throttling in the bar building for the water to flow to phase 2.1 since
phase 2.1 requires higher static head as compared to the bar building.
This results in loss across the valve due to throttling. The total loss in
power due to throttling of the valve is estimated to be 52 %.

The operating efficiency of the chilled water pump during the audit was
calculated as 43%. As the pump is designed for a head of 30 m and only
12 m head is required for the pump, the pump is operating in an
inefficient zone.

Confederation of Indian Industry


CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

Due to Operating efficiency of 42% for pump, there is a good potential to


replace the pump with Energy efficient pump of design specifications, as
follows:

Design Head

15 meters

Design Flow

550 m3/hr

Design Power

30.2 kW

Design Efficiency (Pump)

80%

Proposed System

The chilled water system can be separated for both the bar building and
phase 2.1. Currently the lines of bar and phase 2.1 are interconnected;
this results in additional losses due to valve throttling in bar building.
Seggregating the lines and pumps for chilled water for bar building and
phase 2.1 will enable us in avoiding the loss due to valve throttling.
Excluding the loss across the valve throttling, the loss across the system
would be the pressure drop across the chiller and due to the back
pressure developed by the operation of auto control valves in the building.
After segregating the pump and lines of bar and phase 2.1 the same
pump can be used for phase 2.1 as well, as the pump is designed based
on the flow requirement of chiller. Flow of both the pumps can be
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

maintained with VFD and based on TR load required on the building. The
TR load required for each building can be obtained from TR load required
for each AHU. The total flow maintained through the chiller can be on the
basis of operating TR load.

Table : Chiller parameters as specified by manufacturer


Based on the above mentioned table provided by the manufacturer the
chilled water quantity can be varied based on the loading of the chiller.
The values have been specified for 45% - 100% loading of the chiller.
Similar parameters are also mentioned for the new Trane Chiller installed
for the plant. During the audit the Trane chillers was under installation.
Additional savings can be achieved by optimizing the pump flow based on
the TR required as a feedback to the VFD.
The temperature set point for chilled water can be maintained the same
for the chillers and correspondingly flow through the chillers can be
varied. Additional savings by reducing the chilled water flow with VFD has
not been taken into account since the flow varies depending on the heat
load. Therefore, the pump flow can be varied for meeting the heat load
requirements instead of varying the chiller set points since lowering the
chiller set points further increases the power consumption in the
compressor.
Note: Care should be taken to maintain minimum flow through the chiller
is maintained. Correspondingly the VFD should operate above a certain
frequency to maintain chilled water flow above this minimum quantity as
recommended by the manufacturer.
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

Benefits
The annual energy saving potential by segregating both the chilled water
systems and installing new pumps is Rs. 8.48 Lakhs per annum. The
investment required for installing a new pump with VFD is Rs. 11.00
Lakhs with a payback period of 16 months.

are constant.

The optimal loading on transformers occur at the point when the No-load
loss = Load losses (which is around 60%)
For the transformers installed at TSI Waverock, the optimal loading point
is calculated and found to be around 60%.
Hence it is recommended to operate two transformers instead of three.
This would result in
Optimal loading on each of the two transformers
Reduction in transformer losses from around 24 KW to 20 KW.

LIGHTING SYSTEM AT TSI


During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, Hyderabad, the
lighting system was studied in detail to identify all the possible energy
conservation opportunities.
Existing Scenario
The lighting at TSI Waverock was done by:

Parking levels P1 to P4: 3200 Nos of 2X28 W T5 lamps. At present,


1600 Nos of these lamps are in operation. Of these lamps, around
300 Nos were replaced with 1X20 W LEDs.

CII congratulates the plant team for the excellent initiative taken.
In addition to the T5 lamps, CFL lamps were installed in E floor and sector
B.

E floor: 80 Nos of 18 W CFL Lamps

In each floor of Sector B: 270 Nos of 4X14 W CFLs were installed in


work areas and 183 Nos of 2X18 W CFLs were installed in the lobby
areas.

There are 69 Nos of 70 W HPSV lamps installed for street lighting.


These T5, CFL and HPSV lamps can be replaced with LEDs for reducing
the energy consumption further. LED is the latest energy efficient
technology in lighting and offers the following advantages:
Advantages of LED
Lower energy consumption: The energy consumption of LEDs is low
when compared to the other conventional sources for the same amount of
Lumen output.

High S/P ratio: LEDs have higher scotopic/photopic ratio (S/P ratio).
The eye has two primary light sensing cells called rods and cones cones
function in day light and process visual information whereas rods function
in night light. The cone dominated vision is called photopic and the rod
dominated vision is called scotopic. The S/P ratio indicates the measure of
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

light that excites rods compared to the light that excites cones. In office
environments, illumination is more effective if the S/P ratio is high as it is
under scotopic region. LEDs hence are ideally suited for these applications
as they have a high S/P ratio.
Longer life time: LEDs have longer life time of around 50,000 hours.
Faster switching: LED lights reach its brightness instantly upon
switching and can frequently be switched on/off without reducing the
operational life expectancy.
Greater durability and reliability: As LEDs are solid-state devices and
uses semi-conductor material; they are sturdier than conventional
sources that use filaments or glass. LEDs can also withstand shock,
extreme temperatures and vibration as they dont have fragile materials
as components.
Good Colour Rendering Index (CRI): The color rendering index, i.e.,
measure of a light sources ability to show objects as perceived under
sunlight is high for LEDs. The CRI of natural sunlight is 100 and LEDs offer
CRI of 80 and above.
LED offers more focused light and reduced glare. Moreover, it does not
contain pollutants like mercury
LED technology is highly compatible for solar lighting as low-voltage
power supply is sufficient for LED illumination.
Due to the above advantages, it is recommended to replace existing
lamps with LEDs. The replacement of existing lamps with LEDs are
explained in the energy savings proposals mentioned below.

maintain the indoor air quality as shown in the fig. above. The bag filter
type MERV 13, is used as per green building standards in order to avoid
dust accumulation in the indoor area.
Trial Taken
A trial was taken for one AHU fan (AHU # 29) to observe the effect of the
bag filter on the fan. In the trial, the pressure is observed after the fan in
two scenarios: with and without bag filters:

operating power at 50 Hz speed. It clearly indicates that if bag filters are
chocked, than the power consumption of fan will increase due to
increased head of the fan. The recommended dp by supplier across the

Already the alarm system is available to indicate the choking of bag
filters. Once DP across the bag filter increases, the alarm will be shown in
the control room for bag filter choking. We recommend to check the alarm
system once again whether it is operating or not. Also, we recommend to
check the set point for the alarm.
Recommendations
We recommend the following
Check all the bag filters for AHU fans whether there is high dust
accumulation or not.
o If found choked due to dust accumulation, we recommend to clean /
change the bag filters
o DP limit for bag across pre filter and bag filter is 19 mmWC.
The replacement of choked bag filters with new or cleaned bag filter will

REPLACE FAULTY CO2 SENSORS


During the detailed energy audit, the AHUs were studied. The present
status for the CO2 sensors in the AHUs is as follow:
Present Status
The CO2 sensors are installed in the return air duct of AHUs. The feedback
from the CO2 sensors has been given to the damper of fresh air supply of
particular AHU. The fresh air is being taken from atmosphere and cooled
in the Treated Fresh Air Units (TAF) installed on top of the building. In the
TAF the fresh air is being cooled by chilled water and then distributed in
Air handling units of building through separate line of fresh air ducts.
It is a very good initiative by plant team as fresh air supply will be based
on the CO2 level and excess fresh air at higher temperature (than room
temperature) will not be allowed in the rooms. Hence, the cooling load on
the chiller can be reduced.
CII congratulates the TSI Waverock team for its energy efficiency
initiative.
However, some of the CO2 sensors are found faulty; the list of which are
shown below:
Some of the CO2 sensors are showing some default value of 2000.6
o AHU 3, 4, 6, 16, 27, 39, 40

Indicating continuous fresh air supply

Some of the CO2 sensors showing zero value


o AHU 29, 30, 33, 34, 41

Indicating no fresh air supply

The CO2 sensors with default value of 2000.6 indicate the higher value of
CO2 in that AHU return air. Hence, the fresh air damper always remains
open for those AHUs. If fresh air damper remains open continuously, then
the outside air from atmosphere which is needed to be cooled will
increase the load on the chiller. Hence, power consumption of chiller will
increase. The CO2 sensors with zero value indicate that there is no CO 2 in
the return air. Hence, the fresh air damper remains close for those AHUs.
If fresh air damper remains close always, then there is no fresh air supply
to rooms, resulting in negative impact on the indoor air quality and
comfort of the people.

Confederation of Indian Industry


CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

The level of CO2 in indoor air should be less than 700 ppm. Hence, it is
recommended to set the set point for CO 2 sensors as 700 ppm. If CO2
level increases more than 700 ppm the fresh air damper should open in
order to lower the CO2 level and if CO2 level is less or equal to 500 ppm,
the fresh air damper should remain close.
Recommendations
We recommend repairing all identified faulty CO 2 sensors. In order to
maintain the CO2 level less than 500 ppm in the room, set point for CO 2
should be 500 ppm. If CO 2 level increases more than 500 ppm, the fresh
air damper should open and vice versa.
Benefits
The replacement of faulty CO2 sensors will improve the indoor air quality
and also improve the loading on chiller by controlling the fresh air supply.

OF

During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, the food court were
studied in detail for possible energy saving opportunities. The following
are the observations made.
Present status
Presently air conditioning in cafeteria is catered by two AHUs and 35 TR is
the installed chiller load. The room temperature is expected to be
maintained around 24 to 26C.
It is always recommended to maintain fresh air circulation in the cafeteria
as it reduces the recirculation of air and helps in reducing the toxins in the
air.
There is a good potential to substitute the chilled water AHUs with
ambiators in the cafeteria. The temperatures which can be attained by
using ambiators is 24 to 28oC (varies depending on seasons). An ambiator
reduces the temperature of circulating air in two stages:
Working Principle of Ambiator
Sensible Heat Exchanger (Stage 1): The air from the atmosphere is
sucked in through 20 micron (standard norms) dust filters and is forced
across a heat recuperator consisting of a cross flow, wet plate plastic heat
exchanger, which has an efficiency of about 60%.
The air that flows through the heat exchanger is never in direct contact
with water (which is passing on the other side of the heat exchanger).
The wet side of the heat exchanger is covered with a hydrophilic material,
which maintains a thin film of water that evaporates when the sensible
heat is transferred to the wet side.
A portion of the cooled air picks up the evaporating water and exhausts
out. About 15 20% of the total air available is used up this way. The air
that comes out of this heat exchanger will be significantly colder than the
ambient.
Adiabatic Heat Exchanger (Stage 2): The air that is coming from the
heat recuperator is then passed through an evaporative cooling module,
which consists of a cellulose media made up of a speciality material called
Celdek, which is constantly kept wet with a water drip.
Part of the sensible heat in the air is converted into latent heat and the air
is finally delivered in to the conditioned space at significantly lower
temperature than the intake.

rooms, hotels, restaurants, show rooms, departmental stores and other
areas, where there is need for clean fresh cool air. Ambiators have been
installed in many IT and industrial buildings
Further to this technological advancement, the development of control
systems called the hybrid air conditioning systems uses all the three
systems of ventilation, ambiation and chiller system for airconditioning. Especially in climatic conditions prevalent at a city like
Bangalore, the following modes of operation would be best suited power
saving without compromising on the factor of human comfort.
Ventilation: During winter season and during nights the ambient
conditions is cooler than that for human comfort. Thus in such conditions
the hybrid control system will operate in ventilation mode and minimize
the power consumption of the air conditioning system.
Ambiator: During moderate climatic conditions, the hybrid control
system would automatically shift to the ambiator mode and optimize the
power consumption. While doing this, the ambiator will ensure that the
conditioned space is maintained at 24C to 26C and 60% RH.
Chiller: At times when both ventilation and ambiator system are not able
to cater to the air conditioning requirements of the work space, a number
of chillers are started to boost the cooling capability of ambiator. In other
words, in summer season and during day, the ambiator would
precondition to the maximum extent possible and then the chiller system
would further condition/fine tune the circulating air, thus, reducing the
heat load on the chiller system.
Since the climatic condition in Hyderabad has a very low humidity the
chiller will be seldom used and the ambiator is capable of maintaining a
temperature of 26oC without chiller application. Also, during the rainy
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

season the humidity is high and the ambiator water spray can be switched
off as the ambiators will not be significantly reduce the temperature of
incoming air and will further increase the humidity of air. Thus during the
rainy season only the ambiator fans can be operated and water spray
system can be switched off.
Thus it is advisable to install a hybrid air conditioning system that
automatically decides the best suited mode of operation among
ventilation, ambiator and chilling based on the ambient climatic condition.

CONDENSATION IS OBSERVED

GLASSES

WHERE

During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, Hyderabad, the


HVAC system was studied in detail to identify the opportunities for energy
conservation.
TSI Waverock has extensive glass faade on all the sides. Glass as a
medium brings natural light into the conditioned space and along with it
also allows heat ingress inside the building which adds to the energy
spent on cooling the interiors. In TSI Waverock, Double glazed glasses are
installed to reduce the heat ingress into the building. CII congratulates
the TSI Wave rock team for the excellent initiative.
During the detailed energy audit, it was understood from the plant team
that condensation was observed in around 130 numbers of glass facades.
This indicates that there is a leak in the double glazed glass and the inert
gas in between the glass is leaked. This results in external heat ingress
into the building resulting in excess load on the HVAC system.
Recommendation
We recommend to
Refill the double glazed glass with an inert gas (argon/krypton)
Seal the double glazed glass
This results in reduced heat load on the HVAC system.

OBSERVATION No. 6

SOLAR POWERED STREET LIGHTING


During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, Hyderabad, the
lighting system was studied in detail to identify all the possible energy
conservation opportunities.
Existing Scenario
There are 69 Nos of 70 W HPSV lamps installed for street lighting. The
power consumption of these lamps is around 5 kW.
Proposed Scenario
It is recommended to replace these HPSV lamps with 1X18 W LEDs. A 1.5
kW capacity solar panel can be installed and the requirements of street
lighting can be met through renewable energy.
The solar powered street lighting reduces dependency on conventional
power. It contributes towards green energy and offers long term benefits.
Moreover, it helps in meeting requirements like RPO (Renewable Purchase
Obligation). A green building is expected to derive certain percentage of
its total energy consumption from renewable sources to meet the green
building standards for existing buildings.
Light Emitting Diode (LED) is the latest technology and offers the
following advantages:
Advantages of LED
LED technology is highly compatible for solar lighting as low-voltage
power supply is sufficient for LED illumination.
LED offers more focused light and reduced glare. Moreover, it does not
contain pollutants like mercury
Lower energy consumption: The energy consumption of LEDs is low
when compared to the other conventional sources for the same amount of
Lumen output.
High S/P ratio: LEDs have higher scotopic/photopic ratio (S/P ratio).
The eye has two primary light sensing cells called rods and cones cones
function in day light and process visual information whereas rods function
in night light. The cone dominated vision is called photopic and the rod
dominated vision is called scotopic. The S/P ratio indicates the measure of
light that excites rods compared to the light that excites cones. In office
environments, illumination is more effective if the S/P ratio is high as it is
under scotopic region. LEDs hence are ideally suited for these applications
as they have a high S/P ratio.
Confederation of Indian Industry
CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

Longer life time: LEDs have longer life time of around 1,00,000 hours.
This is equivalent to 11years of continuous operation or 22 years of 50%
operation.
Faster switching: LED lights reach its brightness instantly upon
switching and can frequently be switched on/off without reducing the
operational life expectancy.
Greater durability and reliability: As LEDs are solid-state devices and
uses semi-conductor material; they are sturdier than conventional
sources that uses filaments or glass. LEDs can also withstand shock,
extreme temperatures and vibration as they dont have fragile materials
as components.
Good Colour Rendering Index (CRI): The color rendering index, i.e.,
measure of a light sources ability to show objects as perceived under
sunlight is high for LEDs. The CRI of natural sunlight is 100 and LEDs offer
CRI of 80 and above.
Recommendation
It is recommended to replace the existing 70 W HPSV lamps with 1X18 W
LEDs. A 1.5 kW capacity solar panel can be installed and the requirements
of street lighting can be met through renewable energy.

CHAPTER - VI

UTILIZATION OF WATER IN TSI WAVEROCK


FACILITY
Background
During the detailed energy audit at TSI Waverock, detailed water
conservation study was conducted for possible water savings.
There are two water sources for the facility. One from Municipal
Corporation and the other is from ground water. The inlet from the
municipal line and ground water directly goes to the fire water tanks
(2nos. of 100 KL each). The overflow from Fire water tank goes to the
Raw water tanks (2nos. of 175 KL each). From the raw water tank, water
is passed through sand filter and carbon filter before storing it in the
Domestic water tanks (2 nos. of 175 KL each). Water is pumped to two
overhead tanks on the terrace from the domestic water tanks for
domestic purposes in the facility. There is also an alternate supply line
from the domestic water tank to the softener tank through a softener. The
softener tank water is pumped to the cooling towers as cooling tower
makeup water. However, the cooling tower makeup water is mainly
catered by the treated STP water. The water from softener tank is used
only as a backup.
Fresh water from the overhead tank is mainly used for toilets and kitchen
areas in the facility. The water from these areas are treated in the STP
and then passed through the sand filter, carbon filter and softener and
checked for hardness before using it in the cooling tower as makeup
water. A portion of the treated STP water is used for gardening purposes.
CII congratulates the plant team for efficient utilization of water in
recycling and using it for cooling tower makeup and for gardening
purposes.
Shift wise consumption details of water consumption for cooling tower
makeup and for gardening and the power consumed for the pumps is also
monitored in every shift. CII congratulates the facility management for
the good practice followed in the facility.
Major loss of water in the entire system is the cooling tower blowdown
and evaporation losses. In TSI Waverock, the cooling tower blowdown is
automatic depending on the conductivity of the water measured by
installed conductivity sensors.
During the detailed energy audit, the blowdown losses and the
evaporation losses are calculated to analyze the cooling tower operation
and water losses in the cooling tower.

Confederation of Indian Industry


CIISohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre

Equations and formulae used for calculating the losses are:


Evaporation loss = 0.00085 x 1.8 x circulation rate (m3/hr) x (T1-T2)
Cooling tower Make up = Blowdown + Evaporation losses + Windage
losses (negligible)
Cycle of Concentration = 1 + (Evaporation losses/Blowdown)
During the detailed energy audit, the water flows for different operation
cycles of cooling towers were measured. The delta T varied from 3 to 5
deg C depending on the ambient conditions and an average of 4 deg C is
considered for calculations.
CT's in Operation Water flow (m3/hr) Delta T (deg C)

The evaporation losses in all three cases (i.e. 1 CT running, 2 CTs running
and 3 CTs running) are calculated as follows:

The cooling tower make up is calculated as (considering the average


consumption of 4 days @ three shifts per day).
= (233 + 219 + 178 + 185) / 4
= 204 m3/day
Neglecting windage losses,
Cooling tower Make up = Blowdown + Evaporation losses
Blowdown = Cooling tower makeup Evaporation losses
Blowdown losses with 1 CT Operation

The ideal cycle of concentration (COC) is in the range of 5. Presently,


three cooling towers are in operation and the calculated cycle of
concentration (COC) is 4.25. Therefore the current system operation is
efficient.

By operating all the three cooling towers and CT fans, the cooling tower outlet
temperature could be achieved close to 250C.
For every 10C drop in condenser water inlet temperature, the compressor
power will be reduced by 4 %.
For a 30C drop in condenser water inlet temperature, there would be a power
reduction of at least 12%.
Considering 30C drop in condenser water inlet temperature, the saturation
temperature of refrigerator is reduced to 28.10C and the saturation pressure
also reduces correspondingly.
On an average, a pressure reduction of at least 100 kPa is possible from the
existing 750 kPa.

INSULATION PAINT TO AVOID HEAT INGRESS THROUGH
GLASS
Present Status
TSI Wave rock has extensive glass faade on all the sides. Glass as a medium
brings natural light but also allows heat ingress inside the building which adds
to the energy spent on cooling the interiors. In TSI Wave-rock, double glazed
glasses are installed to reduce the heat ingress into the building.
It is recommended to coat glass area in the building with translucent insulation
paints. A heat transfer co-efficient value of at least 0.7 W/m2/K can be
achieved.

opportunities.
During the audit, it was observed that there are three numbers of domestic
transfer pumps installed for transferring water from domestic water tank to
two overhead tanks 1&2. One pump operates and two pumps are used as
standby.
The design specifications of the pumps are:
Design Flow

9-24 m3/hr

Design Head

163-72 meters

Design kW

11 kW

Flow

28.4 m3/hr

Head

63 meters

Power Consumed

10.5 kW

The operating parameters are:

The static head of the pipeline is approximately 65 meters. This indicates that
there is a mismatch between the design specifications and the actual
requirement in pump operation. Therefore the pump is throttled to 50% to
avoid excess flow and tripping of the motor. The present operating efficiency of
the pump is 51.5%
A new proposed pump with the new design parameters reduces the power
consumption by 19% and operates with close to design operating efficiency.
Step 1:
We recommend the following changes in the domestic transfer pump:
2. Close the bypass valve completely, thereby bypassing the hydro
pneumatic system and the recirculation.
This results in reduction of recirculation flow back to the domestic water tank.
The recirculation from the pump is estimated at 8.5% of pump discharge. The
recirculation line has to be closed by closing the recirculation valve.
Power is directly proportional to the flow of the pump,

During the audit, it was observed that separate plate heat exchangers and
supplementary cooling water pumps are installed for the water cooled
packaged DX chillers. The DX chillers are used for two lift rooms on the
terrace, in the gym and recreation areas in 2 floor and electrical load centers
in the same floor.
It was observed during the audit that the cooling water to the plate heat
exchangers are being catered by the condenser pumps installed for main
chiller system

VFD is installed for the supplementary cooling water pump and the frequency
is maintained at 41 Hz during the audit. Still, the delta T across the plate heat
exchanger was measured to be 0.3oC which suggests that there is excess
cooling water flow in the plate heat exchangers.
Segregating the condenser water system avoids the 190 m3/hr condenser
water flow through the PHE. This 190 m3/h of flow can be completely avoided
by throttling the cooling water side of the heat exchanger after connecting the
supplementary cooling water system directly to the cooling tower.
Recommendation:
We recommend segregating the chiller cooling water system and the DX
chillers cooling water system by installing a separate pipeline to the cooling
tower from the DX chillers.
The delta T can be maintained at least around 3 oC by reducing the flow of
supplementary cooling water pump by at least 70% of the rated flow.

ENERGY SAVING PROPOSAL No. 6

OPTIMIZE THE CHILLED WATER SYSTEM


During the audit, it was observed that one chilled water pump is pumping
chilled water to both the buildings with different static heads. The operating
efficiency of the chilled water pump during the audit was calculated to be 43%.
The pump is operating in a lower efficiency zone since the user requirements
are different.
Presently, to compensate the flow in the phase 2.1, the valve is throttled in the
bar building for the water to flow to phase 2.1 since phase 2.1 has higher
static head.
This results in loss across the valve due to throttling. The total loss in power
occurred due to throttling of the valve is 52 %.
We recommend replacing the existing chilled water pump with a new energy
efficient pump of design specifications:
Design Head
