Heat Pipe Technology
|
Wrap around heat pipes are air-to-air heat exchangers that are installed in the airstream upstream and downstream of a cooling coil to deliberately reduce the Sensible Heat Ratio (SHR) below a standard air conditioning system’s .75. Depend- ing on the application, they’re also used to replace all or part of the necessary reheat in a system to minimize energy usage. The energy ramications are ...

Heat Pipe Technology
|
An increasingly common technical strategy used in the commercial and industrial sectors to provide enhanced dehumidification is an air-to-air heat exchanger wrapped around a cooling coil. The cooling coil may be DX, chilled water, or brine. Because it's exposed to a higher dry bulb temperature, the upstream heat exchanger will absorb BTU's off the downstream heat exchanger into the lower ...

It's common knowledge that a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) is helpful for organizing and tracking maintenance activities and expenses, and almost essential for gathering the data needed to advance to reliability-centered maintenance. Virtually all but the smallest of facilities are using some form of software-based maintenance recordkeeping.
But systems range widely in ...
