Chilled water plants have been widely used in Air Conditioning and Refrigeration industry. The proper design of these facilities includes not only selection of adequate equipment, but also their optimization from the point of view of production, distribution, storage as well as the utilization for the given cooling load and minimization of operating and maintenance costs. Mastering fundamentals, sizing, operation & troubleshooting is a must for designers & operators of refrigeration systems and water chillers. This workshop is designed for engineers and technicians from a wide range of abilities and backgrounds and will provide an excellent introduction to the fundamentals of Heating, Ventilation and Air-conditioning. It commences with a review of psychometric charts and then examines the factors that influence design choices, indoor air quality, load calculations and heating/ventilation and air-conditioning systems. Numerous tips and tricks throughout the program make it very practical and topical to your applications.
