    Generator Room Ventilation

    Uploaded by

    Hiei Arshavin
    This document provides calculations for sizing ventilation requirements for a generator room and transformer room. It calculates heat loads, required airflow, and intake/exhaust area sizes for different equipment configurations including generators running, generators off with radiator fan cooling, and generators off with no cooling. Intake and exhaust areas are based on specified air velocities and a louver free area of 50% is used. Total required intake/exhaust areas are presented for the number of active generators and transformers.

    The documents contain calculations for sizing ventilation systems for generator rooms, transformer rooms and engine rooms. Factors like heat dissipation, allowable temperature rise and flow velocity are considered to determine airflow requirements. Intake and exhaust areas are then sized based on the airflow and velocity.

    The ventilation requirements are calculated for generator rooms, transformer rooms and engine rooms housing electrical equipment like generators and transformers. The calculations provide the airflow needed to prevent the room temperature from rising above recommended limits.

    The factors considered in calculating ventilation requirements include the heat dissipated by the equipment, the design/allowable room temperature and temperature rise, and the airflow equation relating airflow to temperature difference.
