Porsche Centre Sungai BesiKuala Lumpur (Malaysia)
The Porsche CentreLocated in the city center of Kuala Lumpur, Porsche Centre Sungai Besi is constructed on a 1.25 acre plot of land, with a built-up area of approxi-mately 3,324 square meters. The 3s Porsche Centre Sg Besi is equipped with state-of-the-art sales gallery, par-ts and after sales service. The sales gallery has a capacity of displaying up to 18 cars, showcasing the latest Por-sche models and a wide selection of pre-owned vehicles while the workshop houses 9 service work bays.As an effort to improve the thermal comfort in the workshop, an inde-pendent environmental study was commissioned by Sime Darby Auto Performance. The study revealed that the daytime temperature in occupied areas of the workshop routinely exce-eds 32°C, and the 650 square meters’ workshop in the Porsche Centre Sg Besi is under-ventilated. High radiant temperature of the workshop’s surroun-dings (roads, roofs and dark cladding of the building) ruled out the use of a mechanical ventilation to maintain a reasonable working condition. The stu-dy recommended to adopt measures to improve the thermal comfort, whi-ch included increasing the air velocity with big ceiling fans, installation of additional louvers, and also air condi-tioning the workshop.The option of Air Conditioning was excluded due to the high initial invest-ment and high running costs. Work-shop doors would have to be replaced
Management of SDAP decided to in-stall this innovative cooling concept. IETCO Sdn Bhd, a product specialist company focusing on energy saving so-lutions, and official distributors of Se-eley International products in Malay-sia, evaluated a possible installation, with the cooperation of Mauro Ercoli, Seeley International Sales Manager responsible for the area. After a few surveys, the experts calculated that an Indirect Evaporative Cooling System based on a counterflow heat exchan-ger (like Climate Wizard) would grant an estimated supply air temperature of 25-26°c into the workshop. They eva-luated the need of 5 Climate Wizard H15S (Supercool Series), in order to obtain this result. Convinced of the efficiency of the sy-stem, the Management commissioned the project to IETCO Sdn Bhd, provi-ded that the system would have result

with expensive high speed roller shutters to retain the cool air inside. In addition the high energy consump-tion resulting in high run-ning cost combined with the environmental unfrien-dly aspect is also why air conditioning was not an option.
The installationAlthough an indirect eva-porative cooling system of this type had never been installed in Malaysia, the
in an ambient tempera-ture in the workshop of 28 ± 1°C. IETCO Sdn Bhd worked on integra-ting the ductwork for the new cooling system into customized workstations of the workshop. The target was to keep the changes to minimum and integrate the system as
much as possible.During the first trial after the installa-tion, starting from an outside tempe-rature of 35°c and 49% RH, the five Climate Wizard installed provided a supply air temperature of 23.5°c, which is well below the tempe-rature targeted by the client. Commissioning was made on 20th February 2017 together with Seeley International Engi-neer, Johan Vel-leman.
The Data LoggerSince the Committee wanted to make sure about the tempe-rature provided, a data logger has been installed next to the grills of one of the coolers. It registers the supply air tempe-rature every 15 minutes and the data are available online.We can see in the graph the temperature drop from the 20th February (Commissioning day), compared to the tem-perature inside the workshop before Climate Wizards were turned on.

Benefits and advantagesClimate Wizard indirect evaporative air condi-tioner uses a hyper-effi-cient counter-flow heat exchanger to cool the air. Not adding moi-
sture to the air, it is particularly suitable
for humid climates (like Malaysia for example), where humidity can be an issue. Climate Wi-zard’s cooling performan-ce can rival that of refri-gerated systems, using up to 80% less energy. That is not only great for
reducing power bills, it is also great for the environ-ment, especially because the system does not use chemical refrigerants to cool the air. Taking 100% fresh air from outside, Climate Wizard’s perfor-mances and cost-saving
capabilities actually in-crease, when the heat is at its highest, in comple-te contrast with refrigera-ted systems, which rely on recirculating the air inside the building.
