GE 16V420 Enclosed Set

Ventilation Calculation

Engine Combustion Air = 5568 m3/min = 1.54 m3/s

1.54 m3/ s
Combustion Area = 3 m/ s = 0.51 m2

Gen-set Radiated Heat = 123 KW

Total Heat = Engine Radiated Heat + Miscellaneous = 123 + 20 = 143 KW

Air Cooling
If air is used for cooling, the needed air flow rate may be expressed as:

qc = Hc / ( cp (to - tr)) =143000/(1.1*1000(50-40))=13 m3/s

13 m 3/s
Ventilation Area = 3 m/s = 4.3 m2.

where

qc = volume of air for cooling (m3/s)

Hc = cooling load (W)=143000

to = outlet temperature (oC) where to = tr if the air in the room is mixed

where

cp = specific heat air (J/kg K)=1000

ts = supply temperature (oC)=50

tr = room temperature (oC)=40

= density of air (kg/m3)=1.1
