Air Conditioning Systems Design, Selection, Operation,
Troubleshooting Training (Ref.EE203)
COURSE DESCRIPTION
These courses will introduce the concepts of air-conditioning
systems, the recent technologies and progress in the applications.
It deals with the design considerations and the operations of
typical air-conditioning systems for human comfort and air quality
in commercial and non-residential applications. It will also
outline typical types of air-conditioning systems and their
components. The course critically examines the energy efficiency
and usage in different air conditioning systems. The environmental
issues will be also considered. The required load estimation and
calculations of HVAC system design will be introduced. Practical
hands-on exercises will be included in the workshop. This course
will offer the opportunity to learn more about construction,
operation, performance curves, control and troubleshooting of basic
air conditioning systems. During the course participant's
discussion, comments, bringing up their own problems are welcomed
and encouraged. Short tests on the course material will be
performed to examine the degree of delivering the right and quality
of the presented material.
