Rationale:

HVAC equipment is a major user of electricity. It usually accounts

for a large share of the electric bills paid by most companies.

This course endeavors to enable participants to gain the

knowledge on how to design, analyze, operate and maintain the
Ventilation and Air-conditioning (VAC) systems in improving the
efficiency of HVAC and CHILLER plants.

Focus will be given on how to reduce energy consumption for HVAC systems
without significant capital expense and without sacrificing on occupant
comfort or process requirements.

Objectives:

At the end of the course participants should be able:

 to diagnose and solve common HVAC and building systems problems

that leads to higher electrical consumption.
 to understand how the elements of an HVAC system interact with
other building systems to provide cool indoor air in an efficient and
cost-effective manner.
 to gain an understanding of the basic energy prices and costs and to
understand the energy flows (and wastage) within a facility

Target Participants:

The course is most useful for:

 Building managers and business owners

 Facility supervisors & engineers
 HVAC consultants, contractors and designers
 Maintenance and operations HVAC personnel
 New graduate engineers
 Others who want to gain a better understanding of energy
conservation in heating, ventilation and air-conditioning
applications
