Abstract
The objective of this project is to design the heating ventilation and air condition system (HVAC) for Building of An Najah University Hospital "Building Section B" which built in Nablus city, the building consist of sex floors , and contains many different rooms inside the building such as , clinics, pharmacy, and laboratoriesetc. The primary requirement of the heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in a medical facility is the support of medical function and the assurance of occupant health, comfort, and safety. The HVAC system functions not only to maintain minimum requirements of comfort and ventilation, but is an essential tool for the control of infection, removal of noxious odors, dilution and expelling of contaminants, and establishment of special environmental conditions conducive to medical procedures and patient healing. In addition to the HVAC system, water services and plumbing design is required ,the availably of water service system inside the building the hot or cold water, these service can be achieved by selecting the right size of piping and tubing for fixtures of drainage system prevent the hose from the hazard leakage, pollution, the medical gas system consisting of a central supply system (manifold, bulk ,or compressors), including control equipment and piping extending to station outlets in the facility where medical gases may be required, the medical vacuum system consisting of central vacuumproduction equipment with vacuum swathes and operating controls, shutoff valves, alarm warning system, gauges, and network of piping extending to and terminating with station inlets at location where patient suction may be required. Includes surgical vacuum system, waste anesthesia gas disposal (gas scavenging system), and beside suction system. The following patient care areas for hospitals have been identified by reputable authority as "Critical Care Areas" where patients may be subjected to invasive procedures and connected to line-operated electro-medical devices: a. Operating rooms. b. Delivery rooms and Labor and delivery rooms. c. Cyst scope rooms. d. Oral Surgery Maxillofacial surgery, Perodontics, and Endodontic. e. Recovery (surgery, and labor recovery beds). f. Coronary care units (patient bedrooms g. Intensive care unit (patient bedrooms). h. Emergency care units (treatment/trauma/urgent care rooms and cubicles). i. Labor rooms (including stress test and preparation). j. Intensive care and isolation care nursery. k. Cardiac catherization. l. Angiographic exposure room. m. Hemodialysis (patient station). n. Surgery suite preparation and hold. o. Hyperbaric chamber. p. Hypobaric chamber. q. Radiation Therapy (including simulator room). r. Nuclear medicine (camera room)
