CHVAC Software
CHVAC is a software program designed to help HVAC professionals design, analyze, and troubleshoot HVAC systems. It is used by engineers, contractors, and technicians to design, analyze, and troubleshoot HVAC systems. The software includes a library of components, such as air handlers, chillers, boilers, and pumps, as well as a library of materials, such as insulation, ducts, and piping. It also includes a library of tools, such as psychrometric charts, psychrometric calculators, and energy calculators. The software also includes a library of reports, such as energy audits, load calculations, and system performance reports. CHVAC is a powerful and comprehensive tool for HVAC professionals.
Refrigerants P-H Diagram
The pressure-enthalpy diagram (log P/h diagram) is a very useful tool for refrigerant technicians, engineers and researchers. Since it’s not always possible to have all of these diagrams together, we decided to give you this complete pack.
Hvacr Equipment Life Expectancy
Below you can see ASHRAE chart of HVAC Equipment Life Expectancy. The chart includes a list of median life expectancy for the following types of equipment:
Air Filters Efficiency Classification
ASHRAE 52.2: Filter testing was originated from America in 1930 (ASHVE and AFI code). It was then reviewed and modified in 1967 and 1968. ASRHAE collaborated with American National Standard Institude (ANSI) in 1992 to create ASHRAE-ANSI 52.1. Finally updated to ASHRAE 52.2 in 2007.
Psychrometric Programming Functions
ibrary of psychrometric functions to calculate thermodynamic properties of air for Python, C, C#, Fortran, JavaScript and VBA/Excel
Lighting Rules Of Thumb (HVAC)
Using lighting rules of thumb for final design of HVAC and lighting.
Constant Volume Air Handling
Shows the general arrangement for the four-channel control of an air handling system serving one zone in which the four channels control, in sequence, heating → heat recovery → fresh air (‘free’ cooling) → chilled water-based cooling.
Solar Rotation
Solar rotation is able to vary with latitude because the Sun is composed of a gaseous plasma. The rate of rotation is observed to be fastest at the equator (latitude φ=0 deg), and to decrease as latitude increases. The differential rotation rate is usually described by the equation shown.

Refrigerants Data Summary
An updated table for Refrigerants Data.
Infiltration Rules Of Thumb
The infiltration rate is the volumetric flow rate of outside air into a building, typically in cubic feet per minute (CFM) or liters per second (LPS). The air exchange rate, (I), is the number of interior volume air changes that occur per hour, and has units of 1/h.
Trace 700 Software
TRACE 700 enables building designers to optimize the building, system and equipment designs on the basis of energy utilization and life-cycle cost. The Trane software for TRACE 700 facilitates analysis of the energy and economic effects of virtually any chiller plant configuration by allowing users to manipulate a wide range of variables and create a profile of their specific building.
Carrier Hap Software
Carrier’s Hourly Analysis Program is two powerful tools in one package – versatile features for designing HVAC systems for commercial buildings AND powerful energy analysis capabilities for comparing energy consumption and operating costs of design alternatives.

Induction (Air/Water) System
Perimeter induction units – usually located under windows – blend primary air from the air-processing unit with secondary air from within the room. The high-velocity processed air delivery is induced into the unit through restrictive nozzles.
Fancoil (Air/Water) Unit And Induction Diffuser
An alternative discharge unit for application to the induction system shown on the previous page. Instead of nozzle injection of air, a low-powered fan is used to disperse a mixture of primary and secondary air after reheating or cooling from an energy exchanger within the unit.
Chilled Beams And Ceilings
Chilled beams and chilled ceilings require a relatively modest cooling water temperature (14–17°C), which can be obtained using natural cold water storage or free cooling from outside air over periods of the year depending on climate.
Dual Duct System
The dual duct system is another means of providing varying air temperatures to different rooms in the same building. There is no water circulation to peripheral discharge units with terminal reheaters or coolers. This simplifies the plumbing installation as heating and cooling elements for each duct are located in the plant room. However, the system is space consuming and adequate provision must be made in suspended ceilings or raised flooring to accommodate both distribution ducts. The system is most energy economic when heating and cooling elements operate individually.
Variable Air Volume (VAV)
The VAV system has a central air-processing unit to produce air at a specified temperature and relative humidity. The conditioned air from the main unit is conveyed in ductwork to ceiling diffusers which incorporate thermostatically controlled actuators. These can change the air volume to suit each room load. In a large room, several of these VAV ceiling units may be controlled by one room thermostat.
Humidifier
Depending on the state of the air on entering a spray washer, it can be humidified or dehumidified. Humidification in the presence of moisture is understandable, but dehumidification is less easy to comprehend. It occurs when the spray is at a lower temperature than the air and the dew point of the air.
