ESSENTIAL HVAC CONTROL AND OPTIMISATION COURSE, 28 July 2023, 9:30-16:00
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are an essential part of most modern buildings and their role is to control the environmental conditions inside a building, often consuming a large part of any energy used.
If you are looking to understand HVAC systems and how to make them operate better, improve results and energy efficiency, we recommend attending the Essential HVAC Control and Optimisation course. The course will:
- explain the basic operation and control of systems such as boilers, air handlers, fan coil units, chillers, pumping systems and air conditioning and relate them to energy consumption;
- describe potential control methodologies that can be used for optimisation such as speed, flow and differential temperature which can be used to optimise HVAC use for lowest energy consumption while maintaining adequate temperatures and comfort levels, including how many of these systems can be controlled via a BMS;
- cover the implementation and correct use of variable speed drives across the range of HVAC systems;
- examine the renewable versions of some of the HVAC equipment such as biomass boilers and heat pumps.
The next course will be delivered on 28 July 2023 through Zoom as a live, tutor-led and participatory session.
