Case Studies - Cooling the Office

Evaporative cooling in the Leisure Centre
Evaporative Cooling in the Office

GTM, at Strasbourg, are consulting engineers. Typical of many office buildings their offices were constructed with no provision for cooling. GTM were seeking a low cost and environmentally friendly way of keeping their office cool and ventilated.

A key consideration in this installation was noise. A combination of duct design, sound attenuation and fabric ducting systems all contributed to producing a noise level acceptable in an office environment.

Two side discharge EcoCoolers were installed on the flat roof of the office. Sound attenuators (silencers) were fitted in a horizontal section of ductwork prior to a 90° bend to take the air to a fabric duct system of air distribution. A combined thermostat/hygrostat controls the fan speed and cooling mode automatically. This also limits the maximum humidity in the building.

The cooled air is fed to a semi-circular fabric duct which is mounted on the underside of a suspended ceiling. The corridor is positively pressurised and the air the flows to the adjacent offices and is exhausted through open windows.

Fabric ducting provides a draft free system of distributing air. A semi-circular duct was selected to maintain maximum free height in the corridor. When not in use the semi-circular duct will retain its shape. A round fabric duct will collapse when not pressurised.

Fabric ducts also provide some sound attenuation.
