Trans Canada Pipeline
Design recovers waste heat and saves money on operating costs.
Challenges
- Design incorporates air actuated louvers to switch from using ambient air during summer, to using air from inside the compressor building during the winter
- System uses instruments to sense plenum temperatures and provide signal to the actuators to open or close.
Solution
- Cooler designed with intake and discharge louvers at both building side and outside ambient side
- Fully automated louver design
- Design allows for waste heat recovery from turbine compressor package and reduces building heating costs.
