The East End
Leisure Pool was built as part of the regeneration of the Byker area in
Newcastle upon Tyne.
The leisure pool water area is approximately 600m² and the water features
include a wave machine and water slide. There is a 20x8m teaching pool in
a separate pool hall.
Under winter design conditions (pool hall 30°C 55% rh; outdoors -5°C) the
two stage heat recovery in the MENERGA ThemoCond type 34 pool hall units
achieves a temperature efficiency of 80% thereby minimising the installed
heating requirement and energy consumption.
The total supply air volume to the leisure pool is 57,000m³/h (15.9m³/s)
from two MENERGA Type 34 units and a third special unit supplying warm air
at low level under 12m high external windows.
A separate MENERGA type 34 unit conditions the teaching pool with a supply
air volume of 9,500m³/h (2.6m³/s).
Low energy solvent direct coupled free running ventilator wheels with
frequency controlled motors eliminate the dynamic pressure and drive
losses associated with belt driven fans. Electricity consumption is
therefore reduced by approximately 30% when compared with standard fan
technology.
MENERGA DDC control accurately regulates pool hall temperature and
humidity to ensure minimum energy consumption. |
