Cooling Tower Gear Drive is an essential component. Gearbox failure has serious consequences on performance, safety and the operational budget. The GearGuard is a combined gear-drive monitor: vibration, oil level and oil temperature. Continue Reading
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of cooling towers, regular cooling tower maintenance is essential. In this guide, we will provide a checklist of key maintenance tasks, methods, tools, and focus on gear drive maintenance.Continue Reading
Chillers are high energy consumers and over 95% of the chillers waste 5-30% of the electricity on avoidable inefficiencies. Performance monitoring is the first step in chiller efficiency optimization. Lower Chiller operating cost through optimization of energy efficiency, increased plant reliability and reduced equipment wear with this DENA endorsed solution (German Energy Agency).Continue Reading
Energy Efficiency in Commercial Buildings is a challenge for the coming decades, particularly improving energy efficiency in existing buildings. Responsible building operators push improving building energy efficiency to the top of their agenda. Reducing energy consumption in commercial buildings starts with common sense, and a lot of work can be done by your own team...Continue Reading
In the search of ways to reduce building operating cost and energy consumption in the new US Department of Labor Building, a simple method of improving heat transfer was applied. A Presidential Letter of Commendation was given to Mr. Petritsch for such contribution to energy consumption and more economic management.Continue Reading
Twisted tape enhances heat transfer in heat exchanger tubes by modifying the flow channel of the cooling fluid. In fluid dynamics, two main types of flows exist: laminar and transverse. In laminar flow, fluid particles travel in a longitudinal direction, and the only mode of heat transfer is conduction.Continue Reading
