Building Systems (Module 2)

Course Overview

Skills and Knowledge:
This course will provide participants with the skills and knowledge to understand and evaluate building systems for energy conservation and building code compliance. Participants will learn about ventilation and its types, minimum equipment efficiencies, controls, piping and ductwork, service water heating and pumping, cooling towers, and air side economizers. They will also gain an understanding of natural ventilation, design guidelines for ventilation, energy conservation in ventilation, mandatory requirements for ventilation, demand control in ventilation, mechanical ventilation, whole building design approach, reduce cooling load, non-refrigerative cooling, high efficiency refrigerative cooling, improved controls for HVAC, types of solar water heaters, instantaneous water heaters, guidelines for temperature controls, guidelines for improving water heating system efficiency, heat traps for water heating, pumping, performance of cooling towers, energy and water efficiency in cooling towers, and types and working of air side economizers. This course is beneficial for engineers, consultants, architects, and energy managers who wish to adopt energy efficient design of buildings.
