1.3 Vision and Mission

VISSION

The vision of the company is to become one of the most trusted, reliable and leading players
in the Indian market and also in the whole world.

MISSION

The mission of the company is, the company believes in growing a business with
conscience and to succeed it with a soul. That is the reason the company has created and
providing a platform where it connects education and community in order to prosper the
business in every way and every day.

1.4 Policies
Working as an HVAC technician can be a smart career choice and one that's thriving in
many cities across the U.S. According to Education.org, "heating, air conditioning, and
refrigeration technicians hold approximately 292,000 jobs, and job openings in the field are
expected to grow 9% through 2016."

1.4.1 Safety Policy

Because this profession comes with inherent safety risks, it's important to follow a few
guidelines if you 're a new technician. Here are five of the most important.

1) Protective Gear

Any time you're exposed to contaminants like dust, gases and other debris, you will need a
respirator to avoid breathing in any harmful particles. If the respirator lacks eye protection,
it's necessary to wear either goggles or a face shield to keep your eyes safe from contact

with liquids or flying particles. Gloves and arm protectors need to be worn when handling
anything that could lacerate you such as sheet metal and glass. Slip resistant shoes should
ensure that you maintain steady footing, which is important when dealing with potential
leaks and slippery floors. If you're in an environment where objects may fall from above, a
hardhat or some type of helmet is a good idea. Also, earplugs should be worn whenever
you're in a loud environment for an extended period.

2) Tools for Staying Safe

Part of being a professional HVAC technician is using the right HVAC tools for the specific
job at hand. Before starting out on jobs, you will need to have acquired an assortment of

Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Acharya Institute of technology

, Page 2
INTERNSHIP REPORT

tools like wrenches, wire strippers, an anemometer, clamp meter and vacuum gauge. With
the ever-present threat of gas and radiation leaks, having a leak detector is also important.
Keeping everything in working condition through routine maintenance is critical for staying
safe on the job.

3) Identifying Hazards

Before jumping right into a task, it's critical to take the time to make an assessment and
know exactly what you're up against. When you're new to this profession, you should
identify any potential hazards on each job site and take the proper safety precautions before
going forth. It's better to take a bit more time to get the job done right and stay safe than
rush it and wind up seriously injured. The Centres for Disease Control and Prevention also
suggests that it's smart to participate in "additional electrical safety training to those workers
working with or around electrical current, including proper rescue procedures." If electrical
safety isn't part of on-the-job training, one could consider taking a short 3-month electrician
training program.

4) Chemical Safety

Daily, you're likely to encounter a range of chemicals that can pose a serious threat to your
health. Everything from refrigerants and cleaning liquids to solvents and detergents can be
problematic if handled incorrectly. In some cases, certain combustible chemicals can
explode and cause major injury. That's why you should always wear protective gloves when
handling chemicals that can cause skin burns. You should always follow proper procedures
when transporting and storing chemicals. In some cases, newer technicians will lack in-
depth knowledge on certain chemicals, so extra precaution is needed during your learning
curve. If you're at all unsure about a particular substance, you should familiarize yourself
with it or ask an expert before handling it. It's better to be safe than sorry.

5) Avoiding Shock

Because you're often dealing with electrical equipment that you may not be fully familiar
with when starting out, you should be cautious and take preventative steps to minimize your
risk of shock or electrocution. This can be especially problematic whenever there is a water
leak within an HVAC system. As water drips onto the electrical parts, it's the perfect recipe
for equipment failure and shock. Typically, the best way to stay safe is to turn off main
circuit breakers beforehand. Not only should this eliminate the threat of electrocution, but
it should prevent any expensive equipment from being damaged as well.

TASKS PERFORMED

2.1 Introduction

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) is the technology of indoor and
vehicular environmental comfort. Its goal is to provide thermal comfort and acceptable
indoor air quality. HVAC system design is a sub discipline of mechanical engineering,
based on the principles of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer.
"Refrigeration" is sometimes added to the field's abbreviation, as HVAC&R or HVACR or
"ventilation" is dropped, as in HACR (as in the designation of HACR-rated circuit
breakers).

HVAC is an important part of residential structures such as single-family homes, apartment

buildings, hotels, and senior living facilities, medium to large industrial and office buildings
such as skyscrapers and hospitals, vehicles such as cars, trains, airplanes, ships, and
submarines, and in marine environments, where safe and healthy building conditions are
regulated with respect to temperature and humidity, using fresh air from outdoors.

Ventilating or ventilation is the process of exchanging or replacing air in any space to

provide high indoor air quality which involves temperature control, oxygen replenishment,
and removal of moisture, odours, smoke, heat, dust, airborne bacteria, carbon dioxide, and
other gases. Ventilation removes unpleasant smells and excessive moisture, introduces
outside air, keeps interior building air circulating, and prevents stagnation of the interior
air. Ventilation includes both the exchange of air to the outside as well as circulation of air
within the building. It is one of the most important factors for maintaining acceptable indoor
air quality in buildings. Methods for ventilating a building may be divided into
mechanical/forced and natural types.

Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) refers to these aspects of building design and
construction. In commercial buildings these aspects are often designed by an engineering
firm specializing in MEP. MEP design is important for design decision-making, accurate
documentation, performance and cost-estimation, construction planning, managing, and
operating the resulting facility.

Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Acharya Institute of technology

, Page 6
INTERNSHIP REPORT

As per ASHRAE standard 62 ventilations should be done for acceptable Indoor Air Quality
(IAQ) standard. The purpose of ASHRAE standard 62 is to specify minimum ventilation
rates and indoor air quality that will be acceptable to human occupants and are intended to
minimize the potential of adverse health effects. The World Health Organization estimates
that 30 % of all buildings suffer from Sick Building Syndrome due to improper indoor air
quality and improper ventilation and air treatment.

Construction is an ever-growing industry. Any building construction project includes

Mechanical / Electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems. The MEP system gives life to a
building, through Air conditioning, ventilation, power distribution, lighting, water supply,
drainage, and firefighting systems.

The three major functions of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning are interrelated,
especially with the need to provide thermal comfort and acceptable indoor air quality within
reasonable installation, operation, and maintenance costs. HVAC systems can be used in
both domestic and commercial environments. HVAC systems can provide ventilation and
maintain pressure relationships between spaces. The means of air delivery and removal
from spaces is known as room air distribution.

2.2 First Week

1. MECHANICAL
The mechanical design elements of a building, most especially the heating and cooling
systems, help make life inside more comfortable. These systems allow us to occupy
buildings in hot and cold temperatures, under all weather conditions. The basic components
or equipment of an HVAC system that delivers conditioned air to satisfy thermal comfort
of space and occupants and the achieve the indoor air quality are listed below

1. Fans / Blowers: A mechanical device that creates a current of air.

2. Furnace / Heating unit: The furnace is designed to heat air, which is then
distributed to different portions of your home via ductwork or piping.

3. Filters: A porous device for removing impurities or solid particles from the air that
passes through it.

4. Compressor: A machine used to supply air or other gas at increased pressure,

located in the outdoor condenser unit.

Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Acharya Institute of technology

, Page 7
INTERNSHIP REPORT

5. Condensing units: This unit is found on the outside of your home and filled with
what is called refrigerant gas. When the refrigerant is cooled, the condensing unit pumps
this liquid to the evaporator coil to be transformed into gas again.

6. Evaporator (cooling coil): The evaporator coil is used to cool down the air when
your thermostat is set to a lower temperature. This cold air is then funneled throughout your
home.

7. Control System: This is the most obvious portion of your HVAC system, and the
piece you'll interact with most. Usually installed on an easily accessed walls, it can be set
manually and programmed to keep your home at your ideal temperature.

8. Air Handling Unit (AHU): a device used to condition and circulate air as part of a
heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system. An air handler is usually a large
metal box containing a blower, heating or cooling elements, filter racks or chambers, sound
attenuators, and dampers. Air handlers usually connect to a ductwork ventilation system
that distributes the conditioned air through the building and returns it to the AHU

BASIC REFRIGERATION CYCLE

High Pressure Vapor Hot Air Discharge High Pressure Liquid

Fig 2: Refrigeration cycle

Step 1: Compression

The refrigerant enters the compressor at low temperature and low pressure. It is in a
gaseous state. Here, compression takes place to raise the temperature and refrigerant
pressure. The refrigerant leaves the compressor and enters to the condenser. Since this
process requires work, an electric motor may be used.

Step 2: Condensation

The condenser is essentially a heat exchanger. Heat is transferred from the refrigerant to a
flow of water. This water goes to a cooling tower for cooling in the case of water-cooled
condensation. As the refrigerant flows through the condenser, it is in a constant pressure.

Step 3: Throttling And Expansion

When the refrigerant enters the throttling valve, it expands and releases pressure.
Consequently, the temperature drops at this stage. Because of these changes, the refrigerant
leaves the throttle valve as a liquid vapor mixture, typically in proportions of around 75 %
and 25 % respectively

Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Acharya Institute of technology

, Page 9
INTERNSHIP REPORT

Step 4: Evaporation

At this stage of the Vapor Compression Refrigeration Cycle, the refrigerant is at a lower
temperature than its surroundings. Therefore, it evaporates and absorbs latent heat of
vaporization. Heat extraction from the refrigerant happens at low pressure and
temperature.
Compressor suction effect helps maintain the low pressure.

PSYCHROMETRY CHART
A psychrometric chart is a graphical representation of the psychrometric processes of air.
Psychrometric processes include physical and thermodynamic properties such as dry bulb
temperature, wet bulb temperature, humidity, enthalpy, air density.

A psychrometric chart can be used in two different ways. The first is done by plotting
multiple data points, that represent the air conditions at a specific time, on the chart.
Then, overlaying an area that identifies the "comfort zone." The comfort zone is defined
as the range within occupants are satisfied with the surrounding thermal conditions. After
plotting the air conditions and overlaying the comfort zone, it becomes possible to see
how passive design strategies can extend the comfort zone

2. ELECTRICAL
Virtually all modern buildings integrate some form of AC mains electricity for powering
domestic and everyday appliances. Such systems typically run between 100 and 500 volts,
however their classifications and specifications vary greatly by geographical area. Mains
power is typically distributed through insulated copper wire concealed in the building's
subfloor, wall cavities and ceiling cavity. These cables are terminated into sockets mounted
to walls, floors or ceilings.

Similar techniques are used for lights however the two services are usually separated into
different circuits with different protection devices at the distribution board. Whilst the
wiring for lighting is exclusively managed by electricians, the selection of luminaries or
light fittings may be left to building owners or interior designers in some cases. Threephase
power is commonly used for industrial machines, particularly motors and high-load
devices. Provision for three phase power must be considered early in the design stage of a
building because it has different regulations to domestic power supplies, and may affect
aspects such as cable routes, switchboard location, large external transformers and
connection from the street.

3. PLUMBIMG
Competent design of plumbing systems is necessary to prevent conflicts with other trades,
and to avoid expensive rework or surplus supplies. The scope of standard residential
plumbing usually covers mains pressure potable water, heated water (in conjunction with
mechanical and/or electrical engineers), sewerage, storm water, natural gas, and sometimes
rainwater collection and storage.

In commercial environments, these distribution systems expand to accommodate many

more users, as well as the addition of other plumbing services such as hydroponics,
irrigation, fuels, oxygen, vacuum/compressed air, solids transfer, and more. Plumbing
systems also service air distribution/control, and therefore contribute to the mechanical part
of MEP. Plumbing for HVAC systems involves the transfer of coolant, pressurised air,
water, and occasionally other substances. Ducting for air transfer may also be consider
plumbing, but is generally installed by different trade people.

2.3 Second Week

AIR HANDLING UNIT
An air handler, or air handling unit (often abbreviated to AHU), is a device used to regulate
and circulate air as part of a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system. An
air handler is usually a large metal box containing a blower, heating or cooling elements
filter racks or chambers, sound attenuators, and dampers. Air handlers usually connect to a
ductwork ventilation system that distributes the conditioned air through the building and
returns it to the AHU. Sometimes AHUs discharge (supply) and admit (return) air directly
to and from the space served without ductwork. Small air handlers, for local use, are called
terminal units, and may only include an air filter, coil, and blower; these simple terminal
units are called blower coils or fan coil units. A larger air handler that conditions 100%
outside air, and no recirculate air, is known as a makeup air unit (MAU). An air handler
designed for outdoor use, typically on roofs, is known as a packaged unit (PU) or rooftop
unit (RTU).

DUCT
Ducts are conduits or passages used in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
to deliver and remove air. The needed airflows include, for example, supply air, return air,
and exhaust air. Ducts commonly also deliver ventilation air as part of the supply air. As
such, air ducts are one method of ensuring acceptable indoor air quality as well as thermal
comfort. A duct system is also called ductwork. Planning (laying out), sizing, optimizing,
detailing, and finding the pressure losses through a duct system is called duct design.

2.4 Third Week

FIRE DAMPER
Fire dampers begin operation when room temperatures rise to around 165 degrees
Fahrenheit, at which point the damper's fusible link will melt, causing its door to close. Fire
dampers are passive fire protection products used in heating, ventilation, and air
conditioning (HVAC) ducts to prevent the spread of fire inside the ductwork through fire
resistance related walls and floors. Fire/smoke dampers are similar to fire dampers in fire
resistance rating, and also prevent the spread of smoke inside the ducts. When a rise in
temperature occurs, the fire damper closes, usually activated by a thermal element which
melts at temperatures higher than ambient but low enough to indicate the presence of a fire,
allowing springs to close the damper blades. Fire dampers can also close following receipt
of an electrical signal from a fire alarm system utilizing detector remote from the damper,
indicating the sensing of heat or smoke in the building occupied spaces or in the HVAC
duct system.

VENTILATION
Ventilation is the process of changing or replacing air in any space to control temperature
or remove any combination of moisture, odours, smoke, heat, dust, airborne bacteria, or
carbon dioxide, and to replenish oxygen. Ventilation includes both the exchange of air with
the outside as well as circulation of air within the building. It is one of the most important
factors for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in buildings. Methods for ventilating
a building may be divided into mechanical/forced and natural types.

MECHANICAL OR FORCED VENTILATION

A building ventilation system that uses powered fans or blowers to provide fresh air to
rooms when the natural forces of air pressure and gravity are not enough to circulate air
through a building. Mechanical ventilation is used to control indoor air quality, excess
humidity, odours, and contaminants can often be controlled via dilution or replacement
with outside air. However, in humid climates specialized ventilation systems can remove
excess moisture from the air. Ceiling fans are commonly seen as ventilation systems as
they are usually the most visible mechanical system in a building; however, ceiling fans do
not provide real ventilation, as there is no introduction of fresh air. Ceiling fans only
circulate air within a room for the purpose of reducing the perceived temperature by method
of evaporation of perspiration on the skin of the occupants. Also, hot air rises; therefore,
ceiling fans may be used to keep a room warmer in the winter by circulating the warm from
the ceiling to the floor.

Fig 11.Forced ventilation

Dept. of Mechanical Engineering,Acharya Institute of Technology Page 16

PRINSTON SMART ENGINEERS

NATURAL VENTILATION
The process of pulling fresh air into a building from the outside. In turn, this fresh air helps
force the warm, dirty air inside of the building out through the opening in the roof. This
becomes done, without mechanical assistance.

TYPES OF SOFTWARE USED FOR THIs HVAC SYSTEM

AUTOCAD Design Master HVAC is a complete ductwork drafting and calculation software
program that works directly inside AutoCAD. Define the parameters of your project as you
draft, then perform calculations within the software using those parameters. Make
revisions that are accounted for throughout the design. Build your HVAC systems faster
and more accurately with Design Master.

HAP(Hourly Analysis Program)

Carrier's Hourly Analysis Program (HAP) is a computer tool which assists engineers in
designing HVAC systems for commercial buildings. HAP is two tools in one. First it is a tool
for estimating loads and designing systems. Second, it is a tool for simulating building
energy use and calculating energy costs.

HEAT LOAD CALCUATION

The amount of heating that a building needs to maintain the indoor temperature at
established levels. Heat capacity means the amount of heat that a piece of HVAC
equipment can provide. When you see the term 'heating capacity,' it refers to the actual
heating equipment. Load Calculation can be Divided into 2 Factors

1. External Load Factor (Roofs, Ceiling, Walls etc.)

2. Internal Load Factor (People, Lights, Power Loads etc.)

CONCLUSION

Since HVAC systems are the largest energy consumers in a building, it is important to
ensure that energy efficiency methods are in place to ensure reduction in energy
consumption, costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
Given its crucial role in determining the temperature and quality of air, it becomes all the
more important to know its basics. This way, you can not only avoid faulty installation
but also prevent any future shortcomings. Moreover, you will also avoid any premature
wear and tear or an expensive breakdown of the HVAC types & their units.
I am glad that I got an opportunity to work on this field where I learnt something new
about Air conditioning system, where we used some software's such as HAP, BETA
and Auto CAD, we learnt to calculate the heat load for the particular room where the
Air conditioning system has to be installed, along with that we learnt what and all the
parameters to be considered while designing a HVAC system.
