Overview
Significant potential exists with the current technology of energy management and control systems (EMCS) for monitoring and optimizing building systems during operation. More effort is spent typically on the design of a system and its construction/installation than on its operation. Operational optimization of building systems has traditionally attracted much less attention, and investments made in ensuring that the systems installed in a building are operating correctly are often relatively small.
In this course the student will learn about the HVAC simulation-based validation methodology, performance validation of HVAC systems, energy analysis of HVAC systems and other related factors involved with system simulations.
The student is expected to read and review the material contained in Performance Validation and Energy Analysis of HVAC Systems using Simulation.
The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
