The HVAC System is integrated with the BMS Software wherein it is possible to observe &
log the events like the system parameters, abnormalities etc & generate the reports.
Design Consideration:
The Air Conditioning System is designed to provide comfort conditions of 24 1 C
and Less than 65 % RH in the entire building area during the peak summer when the outside
conditions would be around 41O C. The service areas like car parking, Substation, Electrical
Room, Plant Room & Toilets are provided with ventilation systems with 15 to 20 air changes
per hour and Kitchen with 40 air changes per hour as required.
The air conditioning & BMS system combinely has been provided to take care of system
reliability as well ass energy efficiency and flexibility to address to the varying the load
pattern. The operating hours of processing block would be 24 hours with full occupancy
during nights. The learning centre would mostly be in operation during the daytime for 8-10
hours and the residential block load would be peak during the night.
The Equipment are as under.:

The BMS Sensor at AHU Module detects the temperature of return air from the floor
& The motorised valve is either fully opened or partially opened or fully closed as per the
parameters of the return air & the set point in the BMS.
The air distribution system consists of Double skin air handling Units with Pre filter, Cooling coil &
DIDW centrifugal fan section. The AHU motors are also provided with VFDs and the speed is
regulated according to the load. The supply air is distributed through fabricated ducts and return is
collected above the false ceiling back to the AHU rooms. The supply air plenum and initial 4 M of
supply duct is acoustic insulated with 25 mm fiberglass matt finished with Aluminium perforated
sheet. The complete supply air duct is 100% thermally insulated externally with aluminium faced
fiber- glass matt of 25 mm thick to avoid any cooling loss.
The supply distribution would be through aluminium grid diffuser and return air through diffusers
and grilles. The supply air to high occupancy areas like conference rooms & Training rooms are
through are through Variable air volume thermo fusers to regulate the air quantity as per the
occupancy with in the space. The supply and return air ducts with in each AHU room is provided
with motorized valve damper and would be actuated on receiving signal from fire alarm system.
The AHU Rooms in processing area in A& C Blocks of Ground, First & Second floors are provided
with manual & motorized fresh air dampers and the air is automatically adjusted as per the CO 2 Level
in the area.
Totally there are 30 Nos of floor mounted AHUs of variable capacities located at different locations
in the building provided to maintain a sufficient temperature in the building.
There are 6 Nos. of ceiling mounted AHUs located in the battery rooms to provide enough cooling in
the battery rooms located in Ground Floor, Second Floor Core-2 & Core-3 & Fourth Floor.
There are 15 nos of PAHUs are provided in all UPS Rooms & Server room for 24 hours of operation.
Precession AHUs are to control the temperature and humidity.
All the AHUs can run in Auto Mode by BMS or in Manual Mode.
The AHU consists of chilled water pipe lines & blower. The chilled water from the secondary
pumps outlet enters the AHU where the heat exchange takes place from the return air of the
air conditioning space. Thereby cooling takes place for the air and the chilled water
temperature rises. The water at the outlet of the AHU is transferred to the chillers through
primary pumps for cooling.

Refrigerant
The refrigerant (R 134a) is compressed to a high temperature of xxx & high pressure of yyy
in the compressor & hence the refrigerant turns into vapour form (& contains oil traces)
which is otherwise is in liquid form at ambient temp. From the compressor refrigerant is in
the form of vapour mixes with oil (lube oil)& goes to the oil separator, where the oil is
separated & the separated oil is sent back to the compressor (for bearings). The compressed
refrigerant alone will be moving to the condenser where it is cooled by the water from the
cooling tower in case of Water Cooled Chiller and by air in case of Air Cooled Chiller.
From the condenser, the liquid refrigerant goes to the drier where the refrigerant is dried &
then to expansion valve, which is operated by a servomotor depending upon the pressure
inside the LVS.
Liquid Vapour Separator will separate the vapour refrigerant from liquid refrigerant &
vapour refrigerant is again sent back to the suction of the compressor.
Liquid Refrigerant is sent to the evaporator.
The water from the AHU rooms entering into the evaporator is cooled by the refrigerant and
sent back to the secondary pumps.

Control System: The Entire system is controlled either by remote mode from BMS or by manual
mode.
The system basically comprises of the follow:
1. Chillers
To meet the load the chilling Plant Consists of 2 Nos of Water Cooled Centrifugal Chillers of Trane
make of 400 TR capacity each located in the ground Floor Plant Room & 2 Nos of Air Cooled Screw
Chiller of Trane make of 350 TR capacity each located in the Terrace. All the four chillers are
connected by common water Head so that there is flexibility of operation of chillers to cater to all the
areas as required. The chillers are provided with motorised butterfly valve sot that the particular valve
is automatically closed whichever chiller is not in operation through BMS Operation. The feeder
panel for the air cooled chiller is located in the terrace electrical room and whereas for The water
cooled chiller and all the pumps & Cooling towers is served by the MCC Panel located in the Ground
Floor Plant Room.
2 Pumps:
The Chilled water circulation Consists of 5 Nos of Primary pumps and 5 Nos Of Secondary Pumps.
Primary Pumps are used to circulate the chilled water from the AHUs to the chiller and whereas the
Secondary water pumps are used to recirculate the water from the chiller to the load i.e. AHUs.
a. Primary Pumps
There are 5 Nos of Primary Chilled water pumps (4 Working & 1 Std By) of Beacon make,
Vertically split back pullout type located in the plant room. Each pump is designed for 3040 LPM
flows against 12 mtrs Head. One pump each catering to each of the chiller. The primary pumps
are of Constant Speed. Inlet side provided with a butterfly valve with a Y- Strainer and outlet side
consists of NRV and balancing Valve. This pumps are driven by 9.3 kW /12.5 HP motors.
b. Secondary Pumps
The Secondary water pumps are used for the water circulation from the Chiller to AHU Loads.
The secondary chilled water pump system is divided into tow parts with 3 Nos (2W + 1 Stdby)
catering for the processing Block and 2 Nos (1 W + 1 Stdby) for the learning cum residential
Block. These pumps are of Variable speed type. Depending upon the load the two way valve in
the AHUs regulate the water flow to coil & this causes in an increase / decrease in the line
pressure. Accordingly the pressure transmitter send signal to the secondary pump controller
which in turn controls the speed of the motor through VFD thus saving the power. The excess
water from secondary circuit goes back to the primary circuit through the bypass line.
The entire system is provided with reverse return & balancing valves at various locations to
balance the load properly.
All the pumps are of ITT BELL & GOSSETT Make of end suction back pull out type.
Each pump in processing block is designed for 922US GPM Flows at a 18 M head and
whereas each pump in the residential block is designed for 707 US GPM Flows at a 21M
Head. Each pump is driven by 15 KW/ 20 HP motor. All of these pumps are located in the
pump room. Inlet side provided with a butterfly valve and Y- Strainer and outlet side
consists of NRV and balancing valve. These pumps are driven by 45 Kw /60 HP motors
Ventilation systems
1) Staircase pressurization 6 nos
Each staircase equipped with stair case pressurisation fans. Totally there are 6 nos of
pressurisation fans located at the roof level connected to all floors through fresh air ducts.
In case of fire, these fans will work pressurising the staircase.
This is mainly to prevent smoke NOT to enter into the Stair Cases - so that the trapped occupants
& Fire Fighting personnel can freely use Stairs as escape route during emergency.
These fans are coupled with motors of 1.5 KW/ 2HP
