The Essentials of Air Conditioning
HVAC systems can be in place for up to 30 years and can consume up to 60% of a buildings energy and 30% of its water. Employing good design and
selecting the right components at day one makes both economic and environmental sense.
This course is ideal for:
Graduate design engineers
The ‘Essentials of Air conditioning’ series delivers the vital information needed to work confidently on HVAC projects.
Contractors/installers
Day 1: Psychrometric Theory & Psychrometric
Processes
Psychrometrics is the engineering of physical and thermodynamic
properties of gas-vapor mixtures. Do you rely on your computer output
for this information? How do you know it’s right?
Understanding psychrometrics and its application is a crucial
component of HVAC design.
Psychrometric Theory
Introduces the topic of psychrometrics and the theory behind
the chart. It covers the physical properties of moist air and
teaches you to plot your own chart from the relevant data. You
will learn how human comfort fits in with the psychrometric
chart, how to read the chart, how to plot basic air conditioning
processes and calculate supply air quantities and temperatures.
Psychrometric Processes
Working with the psychrometric chart to understand a range of
air conditioning processes and considerations including
equipment heat gains, mixing air streams, sensible heat ratios
and more in-depth calculations for typical air conditioning
systems.
The Essentials of Air Conditioning
series has nine topics:
Psychrometric - Theory
Cooling towers - selection
Psychrometric - Processes
Air Filters
Cooling tower – installation,
operation and maintenance
Fans
Pumps – general characteristics
Duct sizing
Pumps – selection and
applications.
Day 2: Filters, Fans & Duct Sizing
Sales engineers
Engineering students
Energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important. Filters, fans and
sizing of ductwork systems can all impact efficiency as well as quality of
the indoor environment. These sessions will give an understanding of
the key elements and how to stop problems before they show up.
Facility managers
Filters
The essentials for selecting and installing air filters. Covers
identifying different types of air filters and their uses, selecting
the appropriate air filter for an application, and how to interpret
air filter test reports.
Fans
Select fans and design for their use in air conditioning systems.
The course will cover fan types and characteristics, fan control
strategies, noise issues and gives an overview of pressure
measurements.
Duct Sizing
An introduction to efficient sizing and laying out of ductwork
systems. Looks at factors affecting ductwork system design,
pressure loss calculation, pressure loss of fittings and
procedures for sizing duct systems.
