Jet Fan Garage Ventilation
The exhaust gases of the motor vehicles and gases accumulated inside the indoor parking places create a serious risk for human health. Indoor car parking areas can be harmfully and fire potentially places due to inefficient ventilation systems. The innovative jet fan system with a lot of applications made in Europe, provides reliable solutions. Garage ventilation will be applied with Flaktwoods brand jet fans in CEPA. The system with 73 jet fans and 12 axial fans will perform the ventilation of 3 garage storey. This system brings an advantage in the investment cost and reduces energy consumption by operating to CO level. Since there is no need for channel usage, no space inside the garage is occupied. System will be modelled very similar to the real application, by the help of the simulation program study (CFD) provided with the ventilation solution. System will be applied by Alarko-Carrier first time.
