SETS: Eradicating Low Delta T Syndrome in District Cooled Buildings Achieve Peak Efficiency and Cost

Introduction

Low Delta T syndrome, a common problem in district-cooled buildings, significantly impacts energy efficiency and operational costs. At SETs, we offer a comprehensive, engineered solution to eliminate this issue maximize the benefits of your district cooling system, and avoid any kind of penalties.

What is Low Delta T Syndrome?

Delta T (ΔT) refers to the temperature difference between the chilled water supply and return lines in a building's HVAC system. Low ΔT indicates inefficient heat transfer within the building's Energy Transfer Stations (ETS) rooms. This leads to:

• Increased chiller energy consumption: Chillers must work harder to achieve the desired cooling effect.
• Reduced chiller capacity: The usable capacity of the chillers diminishes.
• District cooling penalties: Many district cooling providers impose penalties for buildings with low ΔT.

The SETS Solution

SETS offers a multi-pronged approach to eradicate Low ΔT syndrome:

• Site Visit and Assessment: Our engineers conduct a thorough site visit to identify the root causes of low ΔT in your ETS rooms.
• Engineered Solutions: We design a customized solution      involving:
  • Mechanical modifications: Optimizing piping configurations, air handling units, and coil performance within the ETS       rooms.
  • Control system upgrades: Implementing advanced control strategies to ensure efficient chilled water flow and heat transfer.
• Collaboration with District Cooling      Provider: We work alongside your district cooling provider to ensure the solution aligns with their system parameters and optimizes overall efficiency.
• Proposal and Implementation: We present a detailed proposal outlining the scope of work, estimated cost savings, and expected ΔT improvement.      Upon approval, our team efficiently implements the solution.
• Monitoring and Verification: We utilize advanced monitoring applications to track ΔT improvement and demonstrate the success of the solution.
