Description:

Learn how to perfect the design and control of HVAC systems. This full-day program will cover design, equipment selection and control of Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems and chilled and hot water plants. In the morning, find out about VAV system variations, supply and return design, outside air economizers, controls and more. The afternoon session focuses on distribution system options, design optimization and controls for hydronic systems.

As a result of this training you will be able to:

  • Prescribe the best VAV system variations for a given application
  • Specify life cost optimum VAV system components
  • Determine optimal chilled water, condenser water, and hot water supply and return temperatures
  • Optimize the control of various VAV systems to meet or exceed both ASHRAE Standard 90.1 and 62.1
  • Calculate hydronic distribution system pipe sizing and select system components based on system application and flow rates for maximum efficiency and minimum life cycle cost
