Carpark control from HEVAC 

Carpark control from HEVAC 

HEVAC, an Australian company specialising in control systems for the commercial air conditioning industry, has a new offering in its range of carpark CO control systems. 

The SACO is a standalone wall mount sensor/controller that complies fully to Standards Australia AS 1668.2–2012 for CO management, fan-fault monitoring, and minimum timed ventilation requirements, says HEVAC. 

According to the company, the Australia-designed and manufactured SACO is suited for small, enclosed motor vehicle garages and lockups with poor or no natural ventilation not exceeding 25m sensing from the monitor. 

The SACO is capable of direct control of on/off fans up to five amps, or variable speed control of VSD or EC-controlled fans, the company says. 

For larger area systems, HEVAC recommends its HCP7 CO controller with the required number of remote wall-mounted HGSU-CO sensors to suit the size of the carpark.

Computational fluid dynamics modelling of ventilation in road tunnels: enhancing air quality and safety

Computational fluid dynamics modelling of ventilation in road tunnels: enhancing air quality and safety

Ventilation units within vehicle tunnels play a pivotal role in ensuring safety and optimal air quality for
occupants. These units are used to assist with propelling air from one end to the opposite end of the tunnel.
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has emerged as an invaluable design tool for engineers and stakeholders,
offering simulated insights and data to optimise safety and efficiency in tunnel projects. This paper
emphasises the advantages of CFD for road tunnel ventilation design, showcases a case study involving
impulse fans, and highlights the positive effects on project costs and overall tunnel ventilation performance.
