Power plants are complex technical facilities that generate electrical energy by means of energy conversion. In a power plant, primary energy is converted into secondary electrical energy. In the energy conversion process, the primary energy used (e.g. chemical energy from fossil fuels, nuclear energy, geothermal or solar energy) is converted into energy. Depending on the type of power plant, further process steps may also be required to feed electrical energy into the power grid.
Power plants cover output ranges from a few kilowatts to several hundred megawatts. Solid as well as liquid and gaseous energy sources can be converted, for example coal, crude oil or natural gas. The range extends from conventional, but also regenerative power plants to compact power plant units that can also secure the energy supply on a decentralized basis.
All energy conversion processes are lossy: In addition to the desired and required electrical energy, heat is generated that must be used or dissipated from the power plant, and fans can be used in this process. However, fans are not only used in power plants for cooling and dissipating the lost heat, but also for ventilating machine rooms and providing combustion air. Furthermore, fans are used in (emergency) cooling systems, which ensure the safety of the plant even in the event of malfunctions.
ZIEHL-ABEGG develops and supplies highly efficient fans and offers intelligent solutions for power plants of different types and sizes. Where the technology used constantly delivers top performance and many people rely on the safety and productivity of the plant, the top-class fan solutions score with durability, reliability and maximum operational safety, even under the toughest environmental conditions. If required, our fans are adapted to such particularly demanding ones because, like our customers, we traditionally only settle for the best.
Power plants are designed for the long term and involve high investments. High-quality, fail-safe and efficient air technology is therefore worthwhile not only for reasons of safety, but also financially: Excellent technology with a long service life that also operates in a particularly energy-saving manner and saves electricity and maintenance costs from day one pays off in many respects and over many years.
In addition, ZIEHL-ABEGG offers a competent, flexible service tailored to the individual wishes of our customers, on which you can, of course, completely rely in the long term. We will be pleased to advise you personally, present our products in detail and support you in the search Whether axial or centrifugal fans, AC or EC motors, frequency converters and other control modules, we are sure to find the right solution for your specific application and work with you to develop the optimum concept for your needs.
Axial fans such as our FE2owlet or ZAplus models are mainly used for the ventilation of machine rooms, but also for the recoolers of cooling systems. In compact units such as containers, centrifugal fans can also be used under certain conditions. For offshore systems or for use in potentially explosive environments, we offer solution-related advantages, particularly with fans of the MAXventowlet series, which pay off in the form of lower operating costs.
In addition to personal consultation with a view to the specific requirements of the relevant system and installation situation, we also offer you the FANselect selection program developed by us for free use. This program for fan selection, which is unique in the world, allows you to view the individual products from ZIEHL-ABEGG with all the relevant details and combine them with various drive concepts. In this way, you can conveniently compare different options and also convince yourself of the advantages of our products by means of figures, data and facts. In addition, direct integration into the software used by the customer is possible.
Power plant technology and its development are strongly influenced by national and international regulations, e.g. the requirement to sustainably and permanently reduce CO2 emissions or the gradual phase-out of nuclear and coal for more climate protection. Global warming is just one of many arguments for the need for a worldwide energy turnaround; renewable energy sources such as the sun, wind and water are seen as the energy sources of the future, and in power generation the degree of utilization of the energy source used is becoming increasingly important. Power plants, in which a lot of surplus thermal energy is generated in the form of lost heat, can increase their efficiency and cost-effectiveness if they make the best possible use of this potential.
Smaller CHP plants or combined heat and power plants (CHP) are also becoming increasingly important. Among other things, they supply houses and swimming pools, residential areas and industrial estates close to their locations. The megatrend of digitization has long since reached this application as well: modern decentralized CHP units are already equipped with the necessary technology to enable remote access for controlling, monitoring and evaluating the plants. It is essential here that the control or regulation can be carried out depending on the energy requirements, which vary not only in the course of the day, but also in the change of seasons. Furthermore, these decentralized units can be virtually combined with the appropriate control and regulation technology to form a power plant network in order to cover peaks and provide the required energy.
ZIEHL-ABEGG's extensive portfolio also includes proprietary control equipment as well as protection and monitoring devices from ZIEHL Industrieelektronik, which can be perfectly integrated into the technical environment of intelligent concepts for better and more sustainable energy use. This is another reason why we are the top class in air and control technology.
* These ZIEHL-ABEGG products, which are suggested as possible solutions for these applications, are purely informative and serve as a rough guide. Consequently, individual contact with our technical sales experts is necessary and advisable with regard to a specific application so that the individual use can be checked and approved with regard to the explicit conditions.
