ACC Operations
Plant: 1.1MWe Solar Thermal Pilot Plant
Query: ACC Operations
Explanation of Query: This Pilot Plant has employed a small ACC behind a 1.1MWe Skoda Curtis Wheel Impulse Turbine. The exhaust enters at the top of the ACC and there are 6 cells (3 each side) with 8 fans per cell. The vacuum system evacuated from each cell using a vacuum pump. There appears to be an issue in that the exhaust flow tends not to flow to the furtherest cells and the earlier cells appear to do the majority of the work. Does anyone have experience such that they can suggest ideas on how to encourage better flow toward the cells furtherest from the Turbine Exhaust. Thanks for any and all response. Owen.
