EST-201 - Fundamentals of Heat Pumps

2 credits

With the knowledge gained in Principles of Refrigeration (

), a more advanced study is emphasized through extensive lab assignments dealing with the larger systems. Motor and motor safety controls, as well as other related electrical components, including relays, contractors, and transformers. Schematics and testing instruments, are used in performing service and diagnostic functions. The lecture series is an in-depth study concerned with the application of the engineering principles used in the design of conditioning systems. These include psychometrics, building surveys and load estimating procedures, ductwork and air distribution systems.
