Description
Summary:The actual volume of water consumption in the various industrial halls is very diverse. Many factors have an impact on that value, depending on the demand for: domestic, fire-fighting, technologically specific target and other purposes. The demand for domestic water in the production hall is primarily due to the use of showers, wash basins and flush toilets. Workplaces should be appropriately equipped with hygienic and sanitary facilities, depending on its degree of soiling, type of work and gender. The water flow is relevant for dimensioning the water supply system including the diameter selection of the water pipes. Criterion for selection of the diameter is the flow velocity of the water which varies depending on the manufacturer’s guidelines, the material used and the law. The article analyses the dynamics of load pattern of hot water in industrial halls. The methods of flow calculation in production halls based on an analysis of patterns available in literature and the water flow velocity criteria is discussed. The results of the research of the dynamics of water load pattern in a production hall located in Wroclaw is presented and discussed.
