Abstract(semestr )
The course contains three basic groups, in which the student is gradually introduced to selected chapters on moist air, vapour thermodynamics and heat sharing. The aim of each chapter is to introduce students to the principles of equipment common in heating, ventilation and cooling systems that they will encounter in practice. The chapter on humid air will discuss typical and lesser used processes occurring in air handling units. The vapor thermodynamics section focuses on the familiar compressor and absorption chillers and heat pumps. The final chapter will explain the processes and principles related to heat exchangers.
