Avoiding hot air re-circulation
Careful consideration should be given to the likely effect of nearby buildings, walls or even
parked vehicles, which could seriously disrupt the free escape of hot air, and result in hot
air re-circulation.
Other nearby air handling plant can also interfere with the airflow to, or from, the load
bank. Equipment should be spaced well apart and positioned so that their airflows tend to
complement each other rather than compete.
When multiple load banks are being used it is important to ensure that the hot air from one
load bank does not exhaust directly or indirectly on to any other load bank.
