Abstract

A lot of productive activities are ongoing to bring our systems from Energy consumption to Energy Saving. In spite of the clean corridors and orderly placed laboratory instruments along with the energy conservative measures taken by teaching as well as non-teaching faculty, St. John College of Engineering, Palghar is facing comfort related issues due to addition of new infrastructure, which is restricting the advantage of green and eco-friendly environment from spreading all over the structure. The AutoCAD laboratory is an example of this scenario. A project was undertaken so that it’s Cooling Load and Energy consumption required by the system was analyzed. The aim was to calculate, design and suggest several implementations and modifications that will bring about desired comfort without altering the infrastructure. This will reduce the cooling load required and will save the electricity consumption. The rated power calculated for the single laboratory was around 30MW per year, which can be optimized if the appliance changes are made. The project further discusses some implementations, such as passive cooling, non-conventional methods of cooling and ventilation that will directly affect the humidity instead of heat load. Energy Audit is mostly done independently which restricts its generalization and puts it on its standard level of singular energy-saving implementation. EA when done with other activities and Inspections such as HLC, the simultaneous changes in readings can be observed accordingly. This helps in avoiding excessive calculation and future implementation of such audits.
