ENGINEERING MACHINERY WORKSHOPS

Dubai, United Arab Emirates; April 14, 2016: Leminar Air Conditioning Company WLL, the leading HVAC distribution company in the Middle East, in collaboration with Soler & Palau, the largest manufacturer of ventilation products in Europe, conducted a seminar on ‘Introduction to design of enclosed car park ventilation system using jet fans and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis, as per Qatar Civil Defense Department (QCDD) regulations,’ at the Intercontinental City Hotel in Doha, organised by the ASHRAE Qatar Oryx Chapter.

The informative seminar received an overwhelming response from MEP consultants, clients and contractors from the region. The seminar shed light on the designing of car parking ventilation systems using jet fans to comply with Qatar Civil Defense regulations and verifying the design with CFD analysis. They also elaborated on the difference between smoke clearance system and a smoke control system and the method of calculating the smoke exhaust and fresh air volume for smoke control system, in compliance with QCDD acceptance criteria.

Leminar Air Conditioning Company WLL is the distributor for S&P’s Smoke Exhaust Fans, Centrifugal Fans, Axial / Propeller Fans, Domestic Fans, Jet Fans, ERV and Air Curtains. In Qatar, Leminar also supplies brands Hattersley, Rheem, Flotek, Twin City, Alfa Laval, Mueller Industries, Wednesbury, Weicco, Frese and Winters.
