An Introduction to Design of Heating and Cooling Distribution Systems

Course No. HV-3001

Credit: 3 PDH

Course Fee: $86.85 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: J. Paul Guyer, P.E., R.A., Fellow ASCE, Fellow AEI

 

Overview

This is an introduction to the design of heating and cooling distribution systems outside of buildings. It provides information about system selection, distribution media selection, and general distribution system design. Discussed are distribution systems in trenches, pre-engineered underground systems, prefabricated underground heating and cooling distribution systems, and aboveground heat distribution systems. The information provided is applicable to high temperature hot water, low temperature hot water, low pressure steam, high pressure steam, and chilled water systems. This course is intended for engineers, architects and construction professionals who want an introduction to the design of steam, hot water and chilled water distribution systems outside of buildings. This course will give engineers and others an understanding of some of the basic materials, systems, and configuration of piping, valuing, manholes and drainage for systems that distribute hot water, steam, and chilled water for use in buildings and other facilities where heating and cooling are required.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of fifteen (15) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • The four most common systems for distributing hot water, chilled water and steam outside of buildings
  • Order of preference for high temperature water and steam/condensate distribution systems
  • Order of preference for low temperature and chilled water distribution systems
  • Basic requirements for plan and profile drawings for laying out distribution systems
  • Basic details of valve manholes for distribution systems
  • The basic configuration of valve manholes and drainage sumps
  • The basics of electrical systems for drainage pumps
