21 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Functions in LCC The current available functions in LCC EU - February 2010 are: 1) Normal The normal function is the standard function. With this functionality you can calculate the LCC for up to three stage filter solutions. You can analyse different filters of standard sizes (typically 1 / 1, ¾ -, ½ - sizes). Only one size at a time can be compared. 2) Advance Calculation Advance function gives opportunity to calculate LCC for a real air handling unit (AHU). Very often a AHU have different sized filters in the same filter bank. Here the calculations are made on the complete filter bank designed by you. More inputs required than for normal mode. 3) ESFS In certain Ventilation systems the fan is of constant speed - type. This means that when replacing the filters in such system the fan needs to be adjusted in order to have the same airflow. This function calculate the new fan speed depending on your filter selection. 4) Particulate matter This functionality gives you access to outdoor environments based on PM 10 values. If optimization of the life time is a key this is somewhat more accurate than the ordinary outdoor environments used. 5) Expert Access to all functions in the LCC software (Design system pressure drops - additional pressure drops from equipment such as : coolers, air intakes, heat exchangers), and much more. Here you are a real expert on LCC analysis. 21

30 Normal calculation Normal There are different type of calculations (different functions available) that can be made in the CFSS LCC application. The example that follows is using the standard setting Normal. With this functionality you can calculate the LCC for one-, two- or three-stage filter solutions. You can analyse different filters of standard sizes (typically 1/1, ¾ -, ½ - sizes). Only one size per filter stage can be compared. Camfil Farr Solution System V. LCC Calculations EU version 30

31 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Running Condition Under running conditions you must select the important general parameters for this calculation case: Total filter stage, Exchange interval,the criteria for exchange, air flow etc.. Normal General parameters 31

32 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Running Condition Normal Total filter stage Filter lifetime Criteria Exchange interval Here you may choose up to three filter stages. You must later define a filter type for each filter step you activate, see AHU-design and Solutions to compare You must decide weather you will replace filters based on running time or final pressure drop. The replacement interval based on time (hours) or final pressure drop, in this example a final pressure drop of 250 Pa is used. 32

33 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Running Condition Total System Air Flow Return Air Normal Here you put in the total airflow over the filter(s) in the system you want to calculate. Observe that the energy consumption is proportional to the airflow higher airflow will give a higher absolute energy cost (consumption). Here, in this example we use m 3 /h If you have a return air system you must select how much of the total airflow is returned (% of total airflow). If the return air is larger than zero (0) the software calculates with the dust coming from the indoor environment. Your selection of indoor environment will then affect the calculation. Outdoor environment Estimation on how dusty the outdoor environment is. This can be selected by Outdoor environment (EU) or Particulate Matter option (special version). The outdoor environment will affect how fast the filter will increase in pressure drop during operation. 33

34 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Running Condition Fan System Operating Normal LCC period This is defining how many hours per year the AHU system is used. Observe that the LCC calculation is made on a constant airflow during the whole period. The LCC period defines the time span for the LCC calculation. By changing this value some results may be affected. Indoor environment Here you put in the estimation of the cleanliness of the indoor air (dust concentration). This value is only used if Return air is > 0 For example; if cleaning of system needs to be done after 8 years, and the LCC period is set to 5 years no cleaning cost will be displayed. If LCC period is set to 10 years cleaning cost will be displayed. 34

35 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Running Condition Fan Efficiency Normal This is a very important parameter that determine how energy efficient the fan is. Here all losses such as transmission, heat etc. shall be considered. Normal values for Total fan efficiency is around 30-40%. Typical CO 2 emissions The software is calculating the carbon footprint of the filter installation. The default value is an average for the European electricity market year 2007 (600g/KWh). For USA the average is about 610g/KWh. 35

44 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Costs/Rates The input of price increases, energy cost (electricity), duct cleaning etc. needs to be done in order to make a complete LCC analysis. Any cost can be set to zero if it is to be neglected. Normal 44

45 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Costs/Rates Energy cost is the price per KWh Normal Duct cleaning is the cost for cleaning ducts. This cost appear typically in one stage filtration with low efficient filters. Choice of longer LCC period (see running conditions) is increasing the risk of cleaning. Also with increasing pollution (dirty outdoor environment) the need for cleaning increases. Equipment cleaning is the cost for cleaning dirty equipment (excluding ducts). This cost applies to f.ex heat exchangers, cooling coils or other equipment that can be more complicated and expensive to clean. The duct cleaning is expressed as cost/m 2 of ducts downstream the last filter stage. 45

46 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Costs/Rates Normal New hardware cost is the cost for any initial cost needed to be implemented at the start of the period. It can for instance be new filter housing, weather protection or any other investment needed to secure the performance of the filters. The costs may differ between the solutions (old or new solution). Labour Cost is the cost for exchanging (replacement of) filters. This is the total cost per filter exchange. The labour cost may be different for stage 1,2 and 3. Waste handling is the cost for taking care of the used filters. Typically used filters are incinerated. The waste handling is all cost related to waste (fees, transport etc). The waste handling cost may be different for stage 1,2 and 3. 46

47 Camfil Farr Solution System Life Cycle Cost (LCC) EU Costs/Rates Cost increases and interest rate are determined by %/year.

102 PM This functionality gives you access to outdoor environments based on PM10 values. If optimization of the life time is a key this is somewhat more accurate than the ordinary outdoor environments used. PM Keep in mind that a high accuracy optimisation of an AHU is very difficult to make. Depending on the pollution (aerosol) and environmental conditions the pressure drop increase may vary from case to case. Often is reliable particle concentration data difficult to get. Even if good analysis equipment is used for particle concentration measurements there is always some degree of uncertainty in real life time predictions of air filters. Camfil Farr Solution System V.
