| Course contents : | Thermal exchanges between human and ambient. Calculation of comfort conditions. Analysis of the microclimate. Calculation of heating, ventilation and cooling demands. Air circulation in ventilated spaces, local ventilation through suply/extraction ; global ventilation by dillution. Local and global heating, heat emittors (water-based ; air-based ; radiating ; accumulating). Electrical heating and heat pumps. Air-conditioning systems: central control, terminal units, fan coils, induction units. Air-conditioning of vehicles. |
