Development of engineering approach and practise in design and implementation of installations and plants in the field of heating and ventilation.

Acquisition of knowledge of design and implementation of installations and plants in the field of heating and ventilation. The use of acquired knowledge in further education and engineering practice.

Introduction, history, practise and importance, External and internal climate conditions. Room climate. Selection of internal designing conditions. Calculation of heat loss. Systems of central heating, Classification of systems, Calculation and selection of the heating system. Calculation of the pipe network. Boiler room and the heating room: types, heating schemes, calculations and selection of equipment, Central heating system control, Low temperature heating systems – types and application, Floor and panel heating systems, District heating systems and application, Ventilation system, System classification, Ventilation chamber, Air ducts, Calculation and selection of ventilation plant equipment, Energy consumption calculation for heating systems.

Lectures, Practice, Consultations, Visits of the installations and plants. During lectures theoretical part of the course is presented followed by examples of the designed or implemented solutions in the practice. Practice accompanies lectures where laboratory exercises and computing examples are done related to the lectured knowledge. During consultations additional explanations related to the lectures and practice are given. Consultations are also done during bachelor and master thesis. In order to better understand and acquire advanced knowledge of the course, typical installations and plants are visited. Also visits to international conferences and exhibitions and national and international exchange with KGH (Serbian Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning), ASHRAE, REHVA... Used software are: DesignBuilder, IES-VE, EnergyPlus, SketchUp with OpenStudio, IntergaCAD, Tsol.
