Thermal Distribution Engineering

We have designed many miles of thermal distribution systems, carrying steam, HTHW, and chilled water from central plants to campus buildings. Much of this has been in very challenging settings – overhead pipe racks threaded through dense industrial complexes, or pipelines installed below busy city streets packed with other utility systems – and has required creative conceptual engineering, hydraulic network modeling, and detailed design and construction execution and phasing.

Services offered:

  • Chilled Water District Cooling Networks
  • Medium Temperature and High Temperature District Heating Networks
  • Low/Medium and High Pressure Steam Distribution
  • Direct Buried, Utility Tunnel Systems, Shallow Trench Corridors
  • Energy Transfer Stations
