Description

Many people have been educated on what decarbonization is, as well is its goals. This presentation delves into how hydronic systems using heat recovery chillers, heat pumps and chiller/heaters can be designed, piped, optimized and controlled in order to provide heat efficiently. Also covered are the impact of hot water and outdoor air temperatures, methods to simplify system design and operation, the importance of ensuring building operators and facility managers can operate the systems as intended. The goal is to reduce environmental emissions and make the system as simple as possible, but not simpler

PDHs are available for this presentation through ASHRAE 365
