BASED ON DISCUSSION
HEAT- form of energy associated w/ random motion of atoms/molecules; nature TERMS IN REFRIGERATION PROCESS
is as particle but travels as a wave ➢ Condenser – outside unit; vapor or gas to solid/liquid form; warming
TEMPERATURE- measures the warmth/coldness of substance; a heat energy process
➢ Evaporator – inside unit; absorbs heat from cooling medium and change
• Warmth – many heat energy from liquid to gas; cooling process
• Cold – low heat energy ➢ Refrigerant – freon, such as R400, R402, R410; environmental-friendly
THEMOMETER- measures temperature/heat while CFC’s are harmful to environment
COOL-OFF – transfer heat energy into another body ➢ Compressor – it compresses warm air
BRITISH THERMAL UNIT – quantity of heat required to raise temperature of 1 ➢ Blower/fan – blows cool air inside; exhaust warm air outside
pound of water 1℉ ➢ Latent Heat – happens outside
THERM – unit of heat equal to 100,000 BTU ➢ Sensible Heat – happens inside
CALORIE – unit for energy; quantity of heat required to raise temperature of 1 *In large Buildings; chiller serves as the evaporator and cooling tower as
gram of water 1℃ (equivalent to 4.186 Joules) condenser; Plenum System is where air flows inside & outside an equipment
2 TYPES OF HEAT: Psychrometric Chart – relating to wet & dry bulb reading
➢ Latent heat – there is a change in phase at constant temperature & pressure Humidity – the amount of water vapor in the air
➢ Sensible heat – no change in phase
Thermal Comfort/Comfortability: 20℃ → 24℃ (set by Nat’l Building Code)
MODES OF HEAT TRANSFER: 50% → 60% relative humidity
➢ Conduction – in the form of physical contact/direct; transfer heat from
warmer to cooler particles Classifications/Types Of Air-Conditioning System
➢ Convection – transfer of heat in circulatory motion; indirect contact ➢ All Water – uses water for cooling; two-pipe system (warm & cold
➢ Radiation – in the form of waves water); four-pipe system
➢ Air-Water – uses refrigerant gas and water for cooling; use in Green
PROCESS OF REFRIGERATION: Building
` Related to Generation Systems: BI-Gen (Combined Heating
Process/CHP) and TRI-Gen (Combined Cooling and Heating
Process/CCHP)
➢ All Air – constant air volume (use of thermostat); variable air volume
(constant temperature of air; uses mixing bo
Fire Suppression System

CE 112 REVIEWER
BASED ON DISCUSSION
SPRINKLER SYSTEM – integrated network of piping
Fire – chemical reaction
PIPES USED (fire-resistant): B.I Pipe (Black Iron) and cPVC (chlorinated)
STAND PIPE TYPES:

➢ DRY – has connection to fire trucks
HEAT
➢ WET – directed to fire pumps; always have water
FIRE
SPRINKLER SYSTEMS TYPES:

OXYGEN FUEL ➢ DRY PIPE – permits the water pressure to open a valve known as dry
pipe; no water as it needs supplier; air produced first before the water
FIRE TRIANGLE
➢ WET PIPE – water discharges immediately for sprinklers
ORGANIZATIONS: ➢ COMBINED WET & DRY – has different pipes
➢ NFPA – National Protection Association; US-based; determine if
save/resistive fire
➢ BFP – Bureau of Fire Protection DELUGE SPRINKLER SYSTEM
➢ When valve opens, water flows into the piping system and discharges from
all sprinklers
• Smoke evacuator – removes smoke along the area
• Pressurization blower – pressurize exit areas DREACTION SPRINKLER SYTSEM
• Standpipe – vertical pipes; provide supply of water to sprinklers ➢ FACP verifies first the extent of fire
• Branch line – horizontal pipes
• Main branch line – cross main
SPRINKLER HEADS:
➢ UPRRIGHT – head is upward
➢ PENDENT – head is downward; used where there is ceiling
FIRE PREVENTION – measures/precautions to avoid the inception of fire ➢ SIDEWALL – sideward; used in elevators
FIRE DETECTION – detect the presence of fire and initiate automatic actions
upon the occurrence of preselected event. PUMP TYPES:
FIRE SUPRESSION – application of water-base extinguishing; sharply reduce ➢ FIRE PUMP – provides water supply
the heat release rate of a fire and prevent its regrowth ➢ JOCKEY PUMP – known as pressure maintenance pump/air
Pressure of water kills the fire
March – Fire Prevention Month *SIAMESE – connected to fire trucks; MANIFOLD – 3 or more siamese
COMPARTMENTALIZATION – physical separation such as walls
MATERIALS:
CE 112 REVIEWER
BASED ON DISCUSSION
➢ TYPE I – wood
➢ TYPE II – wood (should withstand fire w/in 1 hr)
➢ TYPE III – masonry & wood (should withstand fire w/in 1 hr)
➢ TYPE IV – steel, concrete, masonry & wood (should withstand fire w/in 1
hr)
➢ TYPE V - steel, concrete, masonry & wood (should withstand fire w/in 4
hrs)
Type I-Iv are not allowable/recommended by firemen
TYPES OF FIRES:
➢ A – ordinary
➢ B – flammable liquids/gases
➢ C – electrical
➢ D – combustible materials
➢ K – cooking oil/fuel
D and K can be killed through water w/ foaming agents only
PASS (USE OF EXTINGUISHER)

➢ P – pull pin
➢ A – aim
➢ S – squeeze
➢ S – spread
Fire Extinguisher needs every 6 months of maintenance
