JiFan – Demand Ventilation
JCar Park Ventilation
Constant running of a ventilation system, even in extended periods of low, or even no traffic or ventilation requirement, results in high day to day running costs. The solution is Flakt Woods Jet Thrust System. Ventilation can be designed using CO and LPG sensors monitoring system, so that selected fans only run when necessary. Additional savings are gained because the main extract fans do not need to be oversized to cope with the system resistances found in ducted systems. All our designs will be prepared to the customers requirements, to take into account the country regulations that apply. If required the Jet Thrust System can be designed to a traditional volumetric air change rate. Flakt Woods realises the importance and possible life saving function of our Jet Thrust System and unlike many, offers full CFD modelling to every customer, on every project. With over a 99% uptake by our customers, they too realise the importance of getting it right. CFD ensures system optimisation and, more importantly, that the patrons safety is not compromised. Flakt Woods avoids the poor design or "guesstimates" used by some, and employs best practice CFD modelling methods. This avoids making a project unnecessarily expensive by using too many fans, or an under performing system by specifying too few.
