HVAC Design Calculations

Learn the fundamentals and required calculations for the HVAC design of buildings.

Topics include:

  • cooling and heating load calculations
  • psychometric chart analysis
  • HVAC energy analysis
  • air handling and equipment selection

Focus is on practical methods of HVAC calculations using governing codes and American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning (ASHRAE) guidelines. Emphasis is placed on accepted rule-of-thumb checks in HVAC load calculations and energy analysis, including a review of available computer programs. This course includes an optional field trip.

Prerequisite: Minimum of two years HVAC experience or an Associate Degree in a related field.

Field Trip: This course includes an optional field trip to a most unique facility in San Diego.
