Basic Heating Planning

Introduction

This course has been designed for engineers who are entering the planning and design field of Building Service Engineering either as a new job or a change of duties. It will benefit people who have no knowledge of heating. It will also be of benefit to company staff using computers for design work as the computer is unable to compensate for the inputting of incorrect data.

Aims

The aim of the course is to introduce the participants to the basic principles of heating planning. This will cover Thermal conductivity, U value of materials, multi-layer constructions, Air infiltration, various piping layouts and sizing of pipes.

Objectives

By the end of the course, participants will have been shown how to:

• State the reasons for Air Infiltration and quote correct figures for all types of building
• Calculate the correct values of heat transmission through structures e.g. windows, doors, ceilings, floor and walls, including multi-layer structures.
• Correctly size different types of pipe work for each different situation
• Size radiators and discuss the implications of different types of heat emitter
• All the above objectives will be carried out in accordance with current design standards and practice used throughout the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning industry.

The Course Covers

• Design Temperatures
• Calculation of thermal conductivity, U values, and their application to structures.
• Heating Loads
• Heat emitters
• One and two pipe Systems
• Calculation of pipes required and where fitted
