When designing an HVAC system, you can face a large number of constraints. The final system needs to ensure proper thermal comfort for the occupants as well as energy efficiency while meeting different industry standards such as ASHRAE 55.

With the advent of CFD simulation, designers can now easily test and optimize their HVAC configurations from the initial design stage. CFD allows engineers to make alterations to existing designs based on simulation results, without the need to build physical prototypes. In this short webinar, the design of an HVAC system for a large theater room will be analyzed with CFD, and a second improved configuration will be designed and suitably tested.

The main decisions explored in this particular analysis are the inlet and outlet ventilation locations. By watching, you will learn:

How mechanical engineers and HVAC engineers can ensure thermal comfort in an interior space
How engineers can ensure compliance with ASHRAE 55 and other standards for thermal comfort in buildings
How SimScale enables everyone with a normal PC or laptop and Internet connection to run sophisticated CFD simulations and easily test their designs
