Ductless Heating and Cooling Systems Market Newer Segments of Application and Forecast Till 2025 - Royal Sutton News

Theglobal industrial refrigerationmarkethas shown steady growth over the last few years, and even with COVID-19 disrupting every industry, that growth hasnt majorly halted. This is due to the fact that industrial refrigeration covers a variety of different machinery and processes. As a result, these are a critical component of several industries, from food processing to construction. Without keeping specific tools or machines at a proper temperature, the entire process could be jeopardized, which, in turn, creates a ripple effect across other areas of the business. In fact, chiller systems and industrial refrigeration take up so much electrical power, it is estimated to be a consumer of20%of all North American electrical power.

Because of this, a mechanical contractor thats able to install and service industrial refrigeration systems will likely have no shortage of clients. However, this is a field that requires a specialized set of knowledge. Heres a starter guide to what industrial refrigeration entails, and the different areas that a contractor may need to service.

In essence,industrial refrigerationsystemsare machines that use the refrigeration process to remove heat from a given item. Some of the settings where this machinery is most common include:

In many cases, to make a mass amount of a given product, chilled components like water are required on a large scale. Cheese and even wine/spirits are a good example of this. In order to mass-produce these, your typical refrigerator simply doesnt have the capacity to keep the materials within a certain temperature range.

There are also high uses of these in the manufacturing world as well. In many cases, a given product will need to be tested in environmental conditions to ensure it retains its stability and function. Low and high temperatures/humidity are a good example. In some cases, refrigeration is needed to create certain plastics and metals.

How exactly does this happen? Like the refrigerator in a typical home, industrial refrigeration systems use the refrigeration cycle, a manipulation of heat transference in order to create cool conditions. Now, we can get into the specific details of how that is managed in an industrial setting.

With this in mind, lets break down the4 key componentsof all industrial refrigeration systems.

Refrigerants: Refrigerants are the different liquids that transfer heat from one area to the other. Each of these takes on new forms as temperature and pressure cause them to change. For example, as the system gets hotter, it becomes a vapor. As it cools, it reverts to a liquid state. This creates the refrigeration cycle of heating and cooling. The most common types of refrigerations youll see in industrial settings are ammonia and R-134a. R-134 is free of halogen to help the environment and create safer conditions. Ammonia, by comparison, is older and better at absorbing heat. Other refrigerants that can be used include carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, and fluorocarbons.

Compressor:When refrigerant is vaporized due to heat, it enters the compressor, a component that raises the pressure and temperature of the vapor. In order to have an effect, the temperature needs to be higher than the condensing fluid to continue the refrigeration cycle. The compressor also serves as a pump to keep the refrigerant moving through the system. Note that your typical industrial compressor can be one of the following types:

Generally, centrifugal and crew are the most popular.

Condenser:After the refrigerant leaves the compressor, it goes into the condenser, also known as the coil. This is generally set outdoors. The condenser coil is generally exposed to something cool, so the refrigerant can release heat. This can range from outdoor air to water to other types of fluids. The release of heat causes the refrigerant to condense and go into a liquid state. The main goal here is that when the refrigerant goes out of the condenser, it should be cooler, but have the same pressure.

Three main types of condensers are used in the world of industrial refrigeration:

Metering Device:The refrigerant enters this device after leaving the compressor. This fulfills two key functions. First, it slows the flowing rate of refrigerant into the evaporator (more on this a moment). It also drops the pressure. In essence, this device is a valve between the high and low-pressure parts of the refrigeration system.

Evaporator:This is the final stage of the cycle, where all unwanted heat is absorbed. This is similar to the condenser (as it is also a coil), but here, the refrigerant is evaporated. Industrial settings use either air coil evaporators or liquid coolers.

Industrial refrigeration companies and general mechanical contractors alike are well served by learning the fundamentals of these systems. Being able to implement this could represent a valuable revenue stream for your company. At the same time, though, whether you specialize in industrial refrigeration services or just want to treat it as an add-on, youre going to need some additional support. This ranges from tracking your equipment and workers to being able to move directives between your field and office teams.

Any business planning on working with industrial refrigeration systems should be sure that they use project management software likeeSUB. This is an invaluable source of workplace data like labor tracking and equipment usage, which helps you make more informed decisions later on. In addition, it provides a full picture of your companys financial health.

Bergstrom Expands School Bus A/C Installations in Partnership with TransArtic - School Transportation News

With a campus set in 350 acres (1.4km2), the University of Richmond is a liberal arts college that surrounds the Westhampton Lake just west of downtown Richmond. It earned the Princeton Reviews Top spot for Most Beautiful Campus in 2020 because of its collegiate gothic architecture and stunning landscape of pines and rolling hills. The campus is a regularly used location for TV and film shoots.

Being home to over 3,900 students and 1,700 faculty and staff throughout more than 70 buildings, the stakes are high to ensure that each of the buildings are as comfortable and as energy efficient as possible.

Julian Morgan, Associate Director, Energy Management, has been instrumental at updating the campus legacy Building Automation Systems (BAS). Starting in 2014, Morgan needed to update 41 buildings and 1,300 pieces of equipment by integrating the legacy Staefa Control System to Niagara JACEs to unify the front-end workstation with a better user interface.

Building ManagementWhen evaluating options for the integration, Morgan quickly settled on J2 Innovations FIN Stack an out-of-the-box version of our open market software for simplified building management. It was chosen for the centralized graphics, data collection, alarms, and uniform user interface across all platforms, desktop, smartphone, and tablet.

When I first evaluated J2 Innovations products for the conversion to Niagara I was only interested in the graphics. When I was shown the software, the history app was what sold me. To have that amount of data at your fingertips is invaluable I could see so many possibilities for the campus with FIN Stack. Julian Morgan, Associate Director, Energy Management

The implementation helped unify the campus and gave more options for facility management and reports than ever before. It provided the campus with a simplified graphical user interface, unified alarm management, integration, a campus wide cross vendor control structure through bLine. a mobile platform for technicians to view the campus BAS when needed for problem solving or just monitoring campus HVAC equipment and the ability to view, graph, format, and download all point data in the history collection via the Historian App.

This was just the beginning of the story for the building management system at the University since the initial integration in 2014, over 55 of the campus 70 buildings are now connected with FIN Stack, with more being added. Today, FIN connects to 2460 pieces of equipment and over 63,600 data points.

Troubleshooting

As well as leading the integration, another large part of Morgans role is troubleshooting, a job that he finds easy due to the superior data collection, reports and analysis of current and historical data:

At the moment, we are in shoulder-season when we have to constantly question are we cooling or are we heating? Having data trends at my fingertips really helps get through this as I can look at each building as an individual to get the correct temperature, save energy and keep the occupants happy

Viewing historical data this way is also helping the university plan for the future. With new buildings being commissioned on campus, troubleshooting data provided on existing building stock has helped the team look at optimizing the new buildings at commissioning stage. Naturally, the new buildings will be able to enjoy the benefits too.

Energy dashboard

In 2018, Morgan replaced the existing Energy Dashboard and brought it over to FIN Stack. This has played a key part in improving efficiency throughout campus as building data can now be exported and connected to off-site. This helps with out-of-hours troubleshooting as estate staff can access key building data at any time. Even students have taken an interest in the abilities of the dashboard, with a recent request from an Environmental Studies student who wanted the data to support their internship.

The Future

While the University has upgraded the FIN software to the latest release (FIN5), they are excited about the future and the ever-growing capabilities of the software, including implementing Edge2Cloud functionality.

FIN has supported them with campus preparations in the current Covid-19 pandemic. With over 1,000 VAV systems throughout the campus, FIN has made it easy for them to meet ASRHAE recommendations for COVID-19. The team have rolled out necessary changes to VAV and AHU systems in 2 weeks this has been significant at making sure staff and students feel safe and secure when they return to campus.

FIN Stack is not just a BAS integration system; it is facility management tool that I can customize the user interface to make my job of managing the campus easier. Set-points, sequences, and schedules these are the bread and butter of optimizing energy efficiency for facilities managers. It saves us a lot of time so we can focus on making our campus a great place to work and study.

Summary

The commercial combined heat and power (CHP) market is increasing modestly with an expected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% from 2017 through 2022. The market is segmented on the basis of end-use sector, fuel, technology and region. The major factors driving the CHP market across the globe include the demand for energy conservation, cohesive government policies, high efficiency and technological advancement. High initial cost may affect the market growth, however, rising environmental concern, rising demand for energy and favorable government policies are expected to boost the market in the near future. Cost effectiveness and capability to increase overall operationalefficiency are major motivators of the commercial CHP market.

It is estimated that around two-thirds of the energy used to generate electricity is wasted in the form of heat discharged to the atmosphere and there is considerable energy loss in the distribution of electricity to the end users. On the other hand, CHP has the potential to provide efficiencies of around 60% to 80% compared with 40% to 50% for conventional technologies. As a result, there is imminent demand for CHP technologies across the globe. The on-site electricity generation effectively captures the wasted heat to provide useful thermal energy such as steam or hot water that can be used for space heating, cooling, industrial processes and domestic hot water.

CHP is widely adopted by major hospitals, schools, university campuses, hotels, nursing homes, office buildings and apartment complexes to save on energy costs, increase energy reliability and cut carbon emissions. In 2012, commercial buildings and institutional applicants represented 13% of CHP systems in the U.S. In 2016, the U.S. government set a target to produce 40 gigawatts (GW) of new, cost-effective CHP by 2020, which is estimated to provide manufacturers and companies savings of $10 billion each year in energy costs. Capital investment in plants and facilities is expected to rise in the near future. Additionally, the CHP market will enable the reduction of carbon pollution by 150 million metric tons(Mt), which is estimated to be the emissions of more than 25 million cars. It has ecofriendly attributes and may reduce carbon emissions by an estimated 25% to 30% as compared with conventional systems.

The end-use application sector will grow at a modest rate of 5.2% during the forecast period with a major contribution from industrial and commercial sectors. The commercial and district energy end-user sector is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. District energy refers to the combination of electricity, steam, heating, or cooling at a central plant and with a distribution of energy to a network of nearby buildings. This encourages managers of individual buildings to get connected to the network in order to avoid the need to install and maintain their own boilers, furnaces, chillers, or air conditioners, thus saving on capital and maintenance costs.

The CHP systems are available for all type of the fuels and applications. CHP application and fueling are greatly depend on the country and the energy producer. North America and China uses coal in industrial applications while France uses gas as its main fuel for CHP. In Russia, a higher share of electricity generation is with CHP. Other major countries are also adopting CHP for electricity generation to reduce carbon emissions. The CHP systems are preferred by consumers in all the geographies as the consumers pay less energy costs with increased energy efficiency from this system. American companies and manufacturers could potentially save around $10 billion by 2020 with the use of CHP systems.

Commercial Combined Heat And Power (CHP) Market Future Demand Analysis with Forecast 2017 to 2022 - ICOTodayMagazine

When thinking about renovating their homes, homeowners may imagine changing wall colors, expanding room sizes or upgrading appliances and fixtures.

However, unless people take inventory of the less glamouros components of the home, such as structure, plumbing, heating and cooling and insulation, other improvements may be for naught.

A home insulation project certainly doesn't offer the wow factor of a kitchen remodel, but insulation serves a vital function in the house that helps keep people comfortable and reduces energy consumption.

Insulation is typically placed in areas where air escapes, such as between the stud cavities inside the walls and in the attic, and serves to slow and reduce heat transfer.

The U.S. Department of Energy says between 50 and 70 percent of the energy used in homes is for heating and cooling. By improving home insulation, homeowners can make their homes more comfortable, consistent and efficient. In fact, the ENERGY STAR program overseen by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says homeowners stand to save an average of 15 percent on heating and cooling costs by adding proper insulation.

To do so, homeowners can take a crash course in home insulation and find the products that fit their needs.

Blanket batts and rolls typically are constructed with fiberglass, so proper safety gear, such as a mask and gloves, is needed when handling them. Installing this type of insulation is relatively easy since the materials are designed to fit the standard width between studs, rafters and floor joists.

Loose fill is usually made of fiberglass or cellulose (recycled paper fiber). It is blown or sprayed into place with pneumatic equipment, according to The Home Depot.

Loose fill can be ideal for hard-to-reach areas in attics or inside wall cavities. It's good for adding insulation to irregularly shaped areas. Since it requires special equipment, this is a job best left to professionals.

Sprayed foam is just as the name implies, a foam made from polyurethane, polyisocyanurate, cementitious or other materials that are applied by a spray container. DIYers who need only small applications can use canned products . Large quantities are pressure-sprayed by professionals.

Ideal for unfinished walls, such as basement or foundation walls, floors and ceilings, these are boards of polyurethane or polystyrene. Foam boards tend to reduce energy consumption more effectively than other types of insulation.

The report (pdf), No Place Like Home: Fighting Climate Change (And Saving Money) by Electrifying America's Households, published Wednesday by Rewiring America shows that a complete switch to clean energy sources like solar and wind would not only put the U.S. on a path toward zero emissions, but it would also save each household on average between $1,050 to $2,585 per year on utility bills.

"Too often we are told doing the right thing for the environment requires sacrifice and costs more," Adam Zurofsky, executive director of the energy policy organization, told The Guardian. "But no one is talking about the upsidewe can actually make a better economy and save people money and a byproduct will be to cut emissions from residential buildings."

According to the study, more than 40% of the nation's energy-related carbon emissions are determined by daily activities like bathing, cooking, and commuting. Today, most of the household appliances and neighborhood infrastructure used to facilitate refrigeration, lighting, heating, cooling, and mobility are powered by fossil fuels.

But, the researchers explain, the process of extracting and delivering dirty energy to households and communities is enourmously wasteful and costly.

If we "electrify" residential buildings and "decarbonize" what the authors call "life infrastructure" by linking household consumption to renewable sources of power, we can reduce energy use, costs, and emissions, they say, and therefore "fight climate change starting right in our own homes."

The report states that "electrification is the only viable pathway to decarbonizing a household." The authors say that doing so "is possible with the technology we have now," giving several examples of changes that could be adopted:

We can decarbonize our driving with electric cars, and charge them cleanly with solar on our rooftops and renewable electricity from the grid. Where most homes now burn methane in the kitchen to run the stove, we can switch to electric induction for cooking... We can use electric water heaters, or better still, heat pump hot water heaters that more efficiently provide us with hot showers and warm water. A heat pump, potentially with energy storage cheaply attached, can replace our furnace or other heating systems with electricity. We can buy electric clothes dryers to replace natural gas ones.

"To make this all work," the report notes, "we need to install a bigger load center, wire in electric car chargers, and attach a battery capable of running the loads in the house for a half day or so."

One of the biggest barriers to change may be the high upfront costs associated with upgrading household infrastructureyet, as the report points out, "we only succeed in fighting climate change if all households can transition to the new economy."

In order to ensure an equitable and environmentally just future, the authors advocate harnessing the power of the state to implement "creative policy solutions," from low-cost financing to direct purchasing assistance for low- and moderate-income households and those with low credit scores.

Zurofsky told The Guardian that "the federal government can make it 'dirt cheap' for people to switch to renewables," especially now that solar is the cheapest form of electricityin human history.

In addition to public subsidies, the report acknowledges that "regulatory reform and restructuring of monopoly control of energy services is absolutely necessary."

Transforming household energy consumption would not only result in the decarbonization of more that 40% of the U.S. economy, but the efficiency gains would also generate savings that "are more than enough to return money to households," Zurofsky said.

As the report notes, "It is the poorest households that have the most to gain from household energy savings."

The authors write that "if we apply the same technologies and approaches to the commercial sector, it would eliminate around 65% of emissions."

Bryan Snyder, an energy and environment expert at Louisiana State University, told The Guardian that such an undertaking would be difficult because it would require the country "to build an electrical generation system on top of our roofs that is the same size as contemporary U.S. generation," while regional inconsistencies in sunlight would add to the challenge.

Zurofsky retorted that the widespread adoption of rooftop solar power is feasible. "That does not mean it will be easy to do," he said, "or that we won't have to stretch our existing capacities to make it happen."

According to Zurofsky, Rewiring America's new reportwhich echoes a recent study by the Economic Policy Institute confirming thatinvestments in energy efficiency and clean energy would create millions of jobsis meant to demonstrate "what the future can look like if we are motivated to make it so."

Press release from North Haven Fire Department:

Oct. 22, 2020

Chief Paul Januszewski and the North Haven Fire Department encourage residents to test their smoke and carbon monoxide detectors when setting their clocks back for daylight saving time.

Daylight saving ends Sunday, Nov. 1 at 2 a.m.

"Testing and changing batteries in smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are quick and easy habits that can prevent fires and save lives," Chief Januszewski said. "We encourage all of our residents to change the batteries inside their smoke and carbon monoxide detectors when they change their clocks for daylight saving time."

According to the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF), working smoke detectors decrease the risk of dying in home fires by nearly half. Additionally, in many reported home fires in which smoke detectors were present but did not operate, the batteries had been removed or the detector was disconnected due to dead battery alerts or nuisance alarms.

The National Fire Protection Association reports that three of every five home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke detectors (38%) or no working smoke detectors (21%). Additionally, dead batteries caused one-quarter (24%) of the smoke detector failures.

The North Haven Fire Department also asks that all business owners not only change their clocks, but also change the batteries in their smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and replace the batteries on wall mounted emergency lights and exit signs. All businesses should have emergency backup lighting as a safety feature to provide temporary lighting in case of power failure.

In order to keep your family and home safe, North Haven Fire recommends that residents follow safety tips outlined by IAFF:

The North Haven Fire Department would also like to remind residents that carbon monoxide and smoke detectors are not interchangeable and should never be disconnected. The best practice for checking your carbon monoxide and smoke detectors is to do so monthly.

From Monday, Oct. 26 to Friday, Nov. 13, the North Haven Fire Department will be offering free 9-volt batteries for North Haven residents. Residents interested in receiving 9-volt batteries can pick them up at the Fire Headquarters, 11 Broadway, North Haven, Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Supplies are limited.

For more information on smoke detector and CO detector safety, visit the IAFF website or contact the North Haven Fire Department at 203-239-5321.
