A recent addition to HVAC marketplace - Canada Blower commercial duct heaters offer exceptional opportunity for efficient heating of commercial, residential and institutional ventilating ductworks.

Canada Blower electric heaters have sensational features that make them the best in the industry. CB universal controller can operate without external inputs to provide maximum heat for variable air velocity and temperature conditions. Sensors are located close to the heating elements. The controller considers only convection heat and differential temperature to precisely measure air velocity and continuously update the proportional control signal to the heater. The result is an extremely precise control of heater output in different environments including VAV applications. 
 
Canada Blower engineers duct heaters up to 1000 kW with up to 40 kW per sq.ft. to suit any application. CB heaters are approved for zero clearance to combustible materials and are safety tested. 

A variety of features are available to design the perfect and ideal heater which will satisfy the most demanding air heating requirements. 
 
• Open Coil, Standard Tubular and Finned Tubular elements. 
• Slip-In, Flanged and Round Collar mounting. 
• ON/OFF and Modulating Control.
• Input signals: 0-10 or 2-10 VDC, 4-20mA, 0-140 Ohms, Pulsed AC/DC. 
• Nema 1, 12, 4 and 4X Enclosures. 

Here's a brief observation of the newly designed Electric Duct Heaters types:

OPEN COIL HEATING ELEMENTS: 
 
The open coil elements are the most popular in the industry, suitable for most standard HVAC ducted systems. The biggest advantage of these elements is the excellent heat dissipation capacity with heating capacities ranging from 0.5 to 1000 kW. 
 
Features of the Open coil elements

• Minimal pressure drop 
• Fast response time 
• Up to 40 kW per sq.ft. 
• Quick delivery 
 
The grade C open coil elements type is made up of nickel, chrome and iron. Canada Blower offers, for applications in humid environments, Nickel-Chrome elements which do not contain any iron. 

STANDARD AND FINNED TUBULAR HEATING ELEMENTS:
 
The Standard and Finned tubular type offers an excellent mechanical resistance, suited for demanding environments. These elements are less sensitive to humid and dusty environments but offer a slower response time. 
 
Features of the standard and finned tubular elements
 
• Up to 12 kW per sq.ft. (Standard) and Up to 15 Kw per sq.ft. (Finned). 
• Heating elements not in direct contact with air. 
• Element of U or W shape. 
 
Tubular elements are made of Incoloy (Nickel alloy) tube which contains a heating coil in magnesium oxide powder. Finned tubular elements have aluminum fins installed on the tube to allow a higher heat dissipation capacity. 
 
FRESH AND FORCED AIR HEATERS: 
 
CB heaters are designed to complement heating systems of homes and offices by preheating fresh air or returned air with any existing central forced-air heating system. 
 
This electric duct heater is equipped with a modulating controller that allows operating in extremely low air flow with peak performance. 

Applications and features:
 
• Heat recovery ventilation system. 
• Central forced-air heating system. 
• Air make-up combined with a small fan. 
• Zone heater... and more. 
• 6" or 8" collar; 1 kW to 5 kW at 120, 208 or 240 VAC. 
• 6 different kits of thermostat configuration available.

By: architectkris | 26-08-2008
My undergraduate (E & C) overall result is rather poor. First 2 semesters were ok. From second year onwards grades dropped dramatically. The end result was obvious. Once degree was complete [v poor of course] the problem compounded due to an additional factor : I am physically disabled. Jobs ,in India ,were virtually non-existent for people like me. With no option left I struck back. I pulled myself out from near rock bottom determined to succeed. I built my career as a Java programmer back up from almost scratch. Within 2 yrs turned around my career. Three more years and I rose to the position of an Enterprise applications Architect. Its 8 years since and the only direction I went was up and up. No looking back even once. But my real aim is to get into MS & PhD and Teaching. Do you think people like me still stand a chance to aget admissions in USA universities ?

Wet air scrubbers are liquid (usually, but not necessarily, water) to capture and separate particulate matter (dust, mist, and fumes) from a gas stream. Some scrubbers operate by spraying the scrubbing liquid into the contaminated air. Others bubble air through the scrubbing liquid. In addition, many gybrid wet scrubbing designs exist.

Venturi Scrubbers for Air Cleaning
By: Oleg Tchetchel | 16/09/2008 | Tools and Equipment
Wet dust collectors have the ability to handle high temperature and moisture-laden gases. The collection of dust in wetted form eliminates a secondary dust problem in disposal of collected material. Also, some dust represent explosion or fire hazard when dry and wet collectors eliminate or at least reduce the hazzard. However, the use of water may introduce corrosive conditions within the collector and freeze protection may be necessary if wet dust collectors are located in cold climates.

Spray Dry Scrubbers for Air Cleaning
By: Oleg Tchetchel | 15/09/2008 | Corporate
Many industrial processes produce large quantities of gaseous or vaporized contaminants that must be separated from gas stream. Removal of these contaminants is usually achieved through absorption into a liquid or adsorption onto a solid medium. Incineration of the exhaust gas has also been successfully used for the removal of organic gases and vapors. Spray dry air scrubbers are used to absorb and neutralize acidic gaseous contaminants in hot industrial gas streams. They use an alkali spray to

Development of Practical Approach to Building Ventilation and Cooling
By: Oleg Tchetchel | 15/09/2008 | Business Ideas
A very effective way to overcome the discomfort of a hot, stuffy room is to create a breeze. The circulation of air over a person's body immediately causes a cooling effect on the skin. When air is passed over a moist surface, it will evaporate some of the moisture and thus lower the temperature of the surface. This is precisely what occurs when air circulates across the human body. By creating a gentle breeze throughout a room or area, a great deal of cooling comfort is provided for individual
