The Hawaii Chapter of the Sheet Metal & Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association is proud to host an incredible technical seminar on HVAC systems effect, duct design, fitting selection, and more led by leading national experts.
The half-day seminar ideal is for SMACNA contractors, mechanical engineers, and inspectors. The “road show” style program is a mix of presentation with live demonstrations.
System Effect:Ever wonder why a particular system does not perform as expected? In many cases the underperformance is due to system effect. Learn how various inlet and outlet conditions affect fan, and overall system performance. Witness a demonstration vary-ing from ideal to worst case scenarios on an operating fan with live performance measurements. If there was ever a case for more space in a mechanical room this is it.
Duct Design and Fitting Selection:Would you believe me if I told you that choosing less efficient fittings in certain parts of a system is the better choice? Have you ever had to install a fitting that was different from the original design? Did it impact overall system performance? We will discuss the impacts of fitting selection as well as provide a live demonstration comparing the performance of different fitting types.
Mr. Howard and Mr. Terzigni will also discuss upcoming changes to SMACNA technical standards, and provide an overview of other resources available to engineers and design professionals.
