Thanks a lot for this..... God bless you
Could you provide us with an excel sheet log of Ashre and Smanca codes if you have one please Thank you
thank you for making this video
Thanks for the video. What is the process to calculate coil TR for the hospital Operation theatre? Plz make a video. Thank u!
bro, thx to explaining
Too good explanation of ahu working. Thank you.
You are my instructor in this season. thank you
Sir your every lecture has more and more depth, really informative. I want to get in touch with you sir
Thanks for this valuable information!❤
clear and professional explanation. btw, hope u cud include the maintenance of the equipment as well.
Thanks. Will talk about equipment maintenance in the future.
Where is the CAV discussion?
Really enjoyed the video. I thought you were going to explain at the end how the load is controlled. My question is I know we need a higher compressor output pressure on a hot day because when need to be able to have the outside air condense the vapor so it needs to be at a higher pressure to allow that to happen. What "controls" the compressor output pressure?
Thanks for your question. There’s nothing that controls the compressor output pressure. On a hot day, the heat rejection rate reduces which causes the system to naturally operate at a higher pressure. The air conditioner will continue to operate as long as it is within the design range. However, if the temperature sensor at the compressor discharge line detects a temperature exceed the design threshold, the electronic control board will slow down the compressor which will prevent the pressure from going overboard.
@@aircondlounge I guess that still does not quite answer my question, I think. What is the feedback mechanism that causes the pressure to rise as the outside temperature increases? It seems at first that there would be less subcooling. What does that cause? Less flow through the TXV? Or something else?
Good lecatcher eng sherif
1 Ton of cooling was based on 24 hour period (one ton of ice melting) and this is 12,000 BTU/Hour for 24 hours - Equivalent total Heat Energy Transfer. It takes one ton of heat to remove 288,000 Btus from the air in a day. That's the amount of Btus that must be removed to melt one ton of ice over 24 hours. Thus, a one-ton AC unit would be rated 12,000 Btus per hour.
Thanks, very helpful in studying for the Architectural Engineering PE exam
Hi Yu, just an idea, I've had clients ask me how to make their existing building cooling systems more energy efficient. So perhaps if you make a series of retrofitting and modernizing old systems to be more energy efficient that'd be helpful. For example, can retrofit the old AHU with EC fans, also afterwards showing how to calculate new efficiency all this. From our malaysia/singapore POV. Thanks in advance
Very helpful. Excited to see more such videos from you.
Yess
clear and well organised presentation. particular the visual makes it very interesting.
Name of the alternate equation used for colebrook
The alternative shown in the video: Tsal (1989). Other alternatives see: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae#:~:text=The%20Swamee-Jain%20equation%20is,the%20implicit%20Colebrook-White%20equation.
More of these type of site walk videos would be very helpful in teaching me what to look for when I go for site survey. Thx I'm a fresh grad new to hvac
Also, maybe explaining what is heat balance and it's importance. How to calculate total system efficiency. How to also size cooling towers and pumps
Would be delighted to watch more videos from Energy Efficiency/ Green Mark point of view. Also, comparing different cooling systems or brands or system designs for their efficiency. Also, maybe explaining what is a water cooled packed unit? etc. Many video opportunities here. Thanks in advance
Finally someone to explain this clearly from the Singapore/ Malaysia context. Love this
Do you find this type of slow and detailed tutorial helpful? Comment +1
My goodness dude, you saved my ass at work. Will be buying your courses as well. You the man!
Is it? How that happened. Anyway, thanks.
Hello sir..I am an undergraduate student..currently I am in my training period.They use both VRV water cooling and Chiller water cooling..can you tell me how we control cooling load(cooling temperature in VRV indoor unit and AHU...😢is it same of different?Also there are no VAV boxes and VSD in AHU..star delta method used for starting method..
VRV indoor unit may use the built-in temp sensor at each indoor unit to control room temperature. AHU may use return air temp sensor to control average room temp.
@@aircondlounge Got it..thank you very much sir❤
Amazing❤❤
Thank you for taking the time to make this presentation 👍🏽
Anytime
Hope you could show examples for the other two methods in duct sizing:- static regain and constant velocity. Do like to share this 'equal friction method' video please.
Will put this on my list.
Great content, thanks sir.
No problem.
How was the video, is it too fast?
Awesome I m from India very good explanation.😊
Thanks
6:59 how is the duct ended upward?
Divert the oily kitchen exhaust upward I guess. Then collect the oil at the elbow there with a piece of metal, plus some rainwater =D
Thank you for the video. Please I want to know what happens when the big room temperature is higher than the setpoint; say 25°c, the medium room is 22°c, and the small room is 18°c. How does the AHU and the BMS handle this situation?
I think in this case should recalibrate the VAV airflow in those rooms. The big room needs more airflow while reducing the airflow in the small room.
@@aircondloungeso that means each duct that connects each room must have a VAV?
@alexekwueme7477 It depends. If each room needs about 1500 CFM, then it is likely that every room needs a VAV box. Otherwise, 2-4 rooms can share one VAV box. Each room will then rely on the radial or OBD on their diffuser to adjust to their required airflow (eg: 150, 250, 700, etc.). If multiple rooms are sharing one VAV box and each room diffuser doesn’t have volume control damper, then small room will indeed be overcooled since majority of the temperature control comes from the big room because the big room contributes more airflow for the control.
And the thermostat used to control the VAV is likely located in the big room as well.
@@aircondlounge I think each room should have VAV and it's damper plus thermostat for full control of the air in the rooms.
@aircondlounge if your AHU is CAV you can add sensible heat to get total sensible heat. if AHU is VAV then you can nod add the max of each zone sensible heat together
For VAV AHU, you should apply a diversity factor to the total sensible heat you mean?
@@aircondlounge you should calculate total sensible load of all zones hourly to find the worst scenario with highest load, not just add the load of each zones together. because they can not occur at the same time to add them together
For load calculation yes. However, if those zones are serve by one AHU, adding the max load at each zone at different hour will lead to oversizing because when one zone is at max load, it doesn’t necessarily means the other zones are at max load as well. So, sum up the load by the same hour and choose the highest one should be the optimal approach.
@@aircondlounge yes thats what I mean. So you select the hour with highest load?
Because this video is about coil sizing, the sensible loads are just an example. In load calculation, I do calculate by hourly and pick the highest load hour.
Nicely explained. Thanks a lot!
Thanks.
Im from indonesia , thanks sir you are amazing ,
It’s nice to meet you!
are there VAV boxes with Larner-Johnson type valves? partially open buterffly valves produce turbulence at high CFM which is not only noisy but also increases pumping losses
I have not seen such a VAV damper, mostly are very basic ones. Designing <1700 CFM per VAV box can help with the noise.
Nice job explaining mini split efficiency.👍
Thank you
clear and informative !
Great!
Very good video also appload air cooled chiller explained thank you
Thanks. Will do that.
Sir please make video all inverter air conditioner troubleshooting and fault finding for example less refrigerant symptom and all sensor working of incerter air conditioner 😊please please please
Got it
Amazing video. I'm not even in HVAC and I used it to calculate a decorative grill size. I'm pushing the 800 fpm limit. Other than noise, is there a risk of my decorative cover blocking too much air to the unit?
Thanks. Other than noise, pushing the FPM higher will lead to higher pressure drop which is the air resistance that could slow down the AC fan speed (which reduces the overall airflow). However, we’re talking about prolonged length like a duct. One or two grilles that increases from 500 to 800 FPM wouldn’t have a noticeable difference.
@@aircondlounge what about if the decorative grill is used to replace the air return grill cover? Am I going to starve the furnace from pulling in enough air? What are the risks I run here?
@@whitefalcon017 it’s best to check with the grille supplier about the free area and then calculate the required grille size in order not to affect the system
Thanks for sharring! For household use, other than the copper piping, what are the differences in between mini multi-split vs VRF? Pros and cons? Thank you!
Sure. Some other differences are cost, VRF is higher, then the control, VRF has centralized thermostat, also the capacity, VRF offer much higher capacity than multi-split.
@@aircondlounge thanks! Can we set different temperatures in different rooms for both multi-split and VRF? If yes, can we set different modes (heating or cooling) in different rooms also for these two systems? Again, truly appreciate your knowledge sharing and guidance. 🙏🙏👍👍
@HL34908 different temperature yeah, both systems can make it. But running cooling and heating simultaneously is usually VRF only and it needs to be the “3 pipes” system.
Are you telling that thing is going to beep every time it turns on?? How do you sleep??? wow
No…is to warn the viewers that I’m going to press the remote control and a loud beep is coming. Cause people may tune up their speaker volume to listen to the noise the unit produces.
Hello sir I am prasanna from india, recently me watching your video its really good as special that ahu coil load .sir can put a video for coil load calculation video
