Durst appoints N.K. Engineers for their West Side CyberCenter.Connecticut-based N.K. Engineers, recognized as a leading designer of clean and efficient co-generation facilities, was employed by the Durst durst v. Archaic A past tense and a past participle of dare. Organization to design a high-availability power and heat recovery plant at the NYCyberCenter in New York City New York City: see New York, city. New York City City (pop., 2000: 8,008,278), southeastern New York, at the mouth of the Hudson River. The largest city in the U.S. . The announcement was made by Naveen Kapur, P.E., president and founder of N.K. Engineers. "The Durst Organization has worked diligently dil·i·gent adj. Marked by persevering, painstaking effort. See Synonyms at busy. [Middle English, from Old French, from Latin d to develop projects that work with and not against the environment without sacrificing utility," said Mr. Kapur. "The high-availability power plant at NYCyberCenter is a giant step forward for the developer, since it combines the latest turbine turbine, rotary engine that uses a continuous stream of fluid (gas or liquid) to turn a shaft that can drive machinery. A water, or hydraulic, turbine is used to drive electric generators in hydroelectric power stations. technology, maximum efficiency and the lowest emissions possible. It is also a state-of-the-art plant for the times." The 42MW co-generation facility at the NYCyberCenter, located on 57th Street between 11th and 12th Avenues in Manhattan, will offer 100 watts per-square-foot of uninterrupted electric power with 99.9999% availability at the tenant's' premises, delivered at the CBEMA See ITI. (computer-grade electric) standard. To maximize efficiency and reduce environmental impact, heat from the power generating process will be utilized to produce chilled water, which will cool the occupied space within the property. This system is unparalleled in quality and availability, negating any need for tenants to install their own UPS's, batteries, diesel generators A diesel generator is the combination of a diesel engine with an electrical generator (often called an alternator) to generate electric energy. Diesel generators are used in places without connection to the power grid or as emergency power-supply if the grid fails. and chillers. "The chilled water system has been given the same level of care as the electric system," according to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Robert Jorgensen, the principal mechanical engineer. "Its' availability matches that of the electric system." N.K. Engineers has already designed the electrical and mechanical configurations as well as the overall layout and equipment selection for the high-availability power facility at NYCyberCenter. As the development of NYCyberCenter moves. forward, N.K. Engineers will be monitoring the detailed design as well as ensuring that all equipment is in compliance with all technical specifications. |
