Description

Building systems are the critical systems of a building, such as the Ventilation, Service water heating, HVAC, Pumps, Cooling tower, Economizers, controls etc. They are often evaluated and controlled both as an independent system and as a part of a larger system and the whole building.This course is about Comfort systems and controls of building for Energy conservation and building course compliance. The course covers following details1.Ventilation and its types (Module 1)2. Minimum equipment efficiencies (Module 1)3. Controls (Module 1)4. Piping and Ductwork (Module 2)5. Service water heating and pumping (Module 2)6. Cooling tower and Air side economizers (Module 2)Above mentioned subject matter covers following sub topics to understand Ventilation, Natural Ventilation, Design guidelines for ventilation, energy conservation in ventilation, mandatory requirement for ventilation, demand control in ventilation, mechanical ventilation, minimum equipment efficiency, whole building design approach, reduce cooling load, non refrigerative cooling, high efficiency refrigerative cooling, improved controls for HVAC, Ductwork and Piping, Types of Solar Water Heaters Instantaneous Water Heaters, Guidelines for Temperature Controls, Guidelines for Improving Water Heating System Efficiency, heat trap for water heating, Pumping, Performance of Cooling Tower, Energy and Water Efficiency in Cooling Towers, Types and working of air side economizersCourse is helpful to Engineers, Consultants, Architects and Energy managers who wish to adopt Energy efficient design of building.
