Synopsis:

Extend knowledge for design, control and evaluation of single-zone and multi-zone air conditioning systems.

Requirements:

Following requirements are demanded: Basic characteristics of all-air, all-water, all-refrigerant air conditioning systems.Typical sigle-zone and multi-zone systems. Design and calculation of air conditioning systems (all-water (fan-coil)systems; all-refrigerant systems; all-air single-duct and dual-duct systems; combined air-water induction systems; cooling ceilings). Cooling for air conditioning. Natural ventilation of buildings. Quality and efficiency of ventilation, age of air. Energy balance simulation. Energy consumption of air conditioning systems
