Air Movement for Energy Efficient Comfort in Conditioned Spaces By Laurel Christensen 1 PDH credit APPROVED (and free!) 12:00pm – Lunch and Presentaon Italian American Community Center, Washington Ave Ext Members - $15 Non-Members - $20 Students - $15 RSVP to Tim Houle no later than Tuesday, February 12th [email protected]or 518-884-8444 x3439 Seminar Description: As we move increasingly towards market viable net-zero buildings with initiatives like ASHRAE Vision 2020 and the 2030 Challenge, we must reevaluate the role that typical building components play in a facility’s energy efficiency. ASHRAE 55 has highlighted the impact of elevated air speed on thermal comfort, and in recent years innovative designs have reestablished air movement as an integral part of occupant comfort and energy conservation. Furthermore, recent changes to Appendix G of ASHRAE 90.1 allow the inclusion of energy savings from using elevated air speed in energy simulations. When integrated into new building designs, air movement allows a reduction of air conditioning capacity and ductwork. In the winter, low speed air circulation redirects heated air trapped at the ceiling, resulting in significant energy savings. Project teams working on net- zero buildings have proven the effectiveness of incorporating air movement in building plans as part of an integrated design strategy.

ASHRAE HVAC Design Training 2 Courses, 5 Days of Intense Instruction
Atlanta ● Cleveland ● Halifax ● Hong Kong ● Houston
Kuala Lumpur ● Miami ● Minneapolis ● San Francisco ● Vancouver
HVAC Design: Level I – Essentials - Registration is $1,264 ($1,009 ASHRAE Member)
Gain practical skills and knowledge in designing and maintaining HVAC systems that can be put to immediate use. The train-ing provides real-world examples of HVAC systems, including calculations of heating and cooling loads, ventilation and diffus-er selection using the newly renovated ASHRAE Headquarters building as a living lab.
HVAC Design: Level II – Applications - Registration is $854 ($699 ASHRAE Member)
HVAC Design: Level II — Applications provides instruction on HVAC system design for experienced HVAC designers and those who complete the HVAC Design: Level I – Essentials training. The training provides information that allows practicing engineers and designers an opportunity to expand their exposure to HVAC systems design procedures for a better under-standing of system options to save energy.
