Course content

3 sections6 lectures45m total length
  • Natural Ventilation_I7:05

    Explore natural ventilation driven by temperature and humidity differences and wind pressure to improve energy efficiency and comfort. Apply national building code guidelines for window placement and 20–30% floor-area openings.

  • Natural Ventilation_II6:31

    Explore natural ventilation guidelines for variable wind, including openings on all sides, roof overhangs, and spacing to enhance air movement and stack ventilation.

  • Mechanical Ventilation_I5:27

    Explore stack effect natural ventilation and mechanical ventilation tips, including energy efficiency, electronic regulators, fans, and NBC guidelines for outdoor air change rates and sensors.

  • Mechanical Ventilation_II5:47

    Explore mixed mode and natural ventilation, calculate indoor temperature from outdoor values, and examine demand-controlled ventilation and its application in varying spaces.

Requirements

  • A desire to learn.
  • Basic knowledge of Green Building is beneficial, but lessons are explained in depth to allow students to build their knowledge from the ground up.

Description

Building systems are the critical systems of a building, such as the Ventilation, Service water heating, HVAC, Pumps, Cooling tower, Economizers, controls etc. They are often evaluated and controlled both as an independent system and as a part of a larger system and the whole building.

This course is about Comfort systems and controls of building for Energy conservation and building course compliance. The course covers following details

1. Ventilation and its types (Module 1)

2. Minimum equipment efficiencies (Module 1)

3. Controls (Module 1)

4. Piping and Ductwork (Module 2)

5. Service water heating and pumping (Module 2)

6. Cooling tower and Air side economizers (Module 2)

Above mentioned subject matter covers following sub topics to understand Ventilation, Natural Ventilation, Design guidelines for ventilation, energy conservation in ventilation, mandatory requirement for ventilation, demand control in ventilation, mechanical ventilation, minimum equipment efficiency, whole building design approach, reduce cooling load, non refrigerative cooling, high efficiency refrigerative cooling, improved controls for HVAC, Ductwork and Piping, Types of Solar Water Heaters Instantaneous Water Heaters, Guidelines for Temperature Controls, Guidelines for Improving Water Heating System Efficiency, heat trap for water heating, Pumping, Performance of Cooling Tower, Energy and Water Efficiency in Cooling Towers, Types and working of air side economizers

Course is helpful to Engineers, Consultants, Architects and Energy managers who wish to adopt Energy efficient design of building.
