Parking garages are predominantly constructed as enclosed spaces to better meet modern needs. Ventilation is a critical aspect in enclosed parking garages where a large number of vehicles are in motion. In particular, the emission of exhaust gases is significantly high in such areas.
Exhaust gases pose a serious threat to human health. Therefore, specialized ventilation systems must be installed in enclosed parking garages to safeguard both human health and the environment.
In the past, ducted smoke extraction was used for parking garage ventilation. However, with advancements in technology, jet fan smoke control systems are now commonly employed. These systems are widely preferred not only for their smoke control capabilities but also for their efficiency in rapidly extracting smoke.
In addition to continuously removing polluted air that accumulates in enclosed parking garages, jet fan systems have the ability to confine smoke to a specific area in the event of a fire. This feature facilitates the rapid evacuation of the garage and creates a suitable environment for firefighting interventions.
Jet fan systems are widely used in parking garage ventilation due to the advantages they offer. These systems operate with high efficiency under both normal and emergency conditions. The working principle of jet fan systems is quite simple.
When needed, the jet fan in the system generates momentum, directing polluted air towards the shafts. Fresh air is then evenly distributed throughout the entire parking garage. This even distribution is one of the system's greatest advantages.
Jet fan systems propel large air masses in front of them by creating high air velocity at their outlets through thrust and induction effects. Various components are utilized in jet fan systems to allow fresh air to enter the space.
The components used in the system are as follows:
These are the general components of jet fan systems commonly preferred in enclosed parking garages. However, depending on the system you choose, additional components may also be included.
Jet fan ventilation systems may have various technical features, which are directly proportional to the desired amount of air intake. The duct system is a key determining factor in this regard. However, common technical features include the following:
Ventilation systems are essential devices for enclosed parking garages. These systems are typically installed as exposed units. Various design options are available, including round, radial, oval, octagonal, and banana-shaped systems.
When determining the most suitable option for your parking garage, it is essential to consider the technical specifications. A ventilation system appropriate for the volume of the parking garage should be chosen. These systems must be selected based on the garage's volume to effectively control exhaust gases in the enclosed environment.
In addition to the volume of the parking garage, daily vehicle traffic is also a critical factor in the selection process. The estimated exhaust gas production and the fresh air requirement should be calculated based on these criteria. After these calculations, the most suitable ventilation system can be identified.
The selected system should be designed and installed by expert engineers. At ERF Group, we manufacture high-quality ventilation systems tailored to your parking garage needs. Contact us for detailed information about ventilation systems, their design, installation, and pricing.
