A27 -- Power Plants (I-P)
This chapter discusses HVAC systems for industrial facilities for the production of process heat and power and for electrical generating stations. Not every type of power plant is specifically covered, but the process areas addressed normally correspond to similar process areas in any plant. For example, wood-fired boilers are not specifically discussed, but the requirements for coal-fired boilers generally apply. Aspects of HVAC system design unique to nuclear power plants are covered in Chapter 28.Chapter Table of ContentsGeneral Design CriteriaVentilation ApproachApplicationsSteam Generator Buildings: Industrial and Power FacilitiesTurbine Generator BuildingCombustion Turbine AreasMain Control CenterTurbine Lubricating Oil StorageOil Storage and Pump BuildingsCoal Crusher and Coal Transportation System BuildingsHeating/Cooling SystemsEnergy RecoveryCitation: 2011 ASHRAE Handbook -- HVAC Applications:Chapter 27, Power Plants
