AN INSIGHT OF DYNAMIC COOLING SYSTEM
04 - 05 NOVEMBER 2026
COURSE INTRODUCTION
This comprehensive 2-day training program is meticulously designed to bridge the gap between theoretical psychrometrics and practical, high-stakes HVAC system design for the modern built environment. Moving beyond basic air conditioning principles, this course immerses participants in the realities of tropical climate challenges and the stringent requirements of global standards like ASHRAE 169. Over the two days, attendees will systematically deconstruct cooling systems from the ground up, beginning with fundamental heat load calculations and dynamic simulation, progressing through advanced airside setups (including dedicated outdoor air systems and heat recovery), and culminating in a deep dive into waterside plant optimization. Through intensive case studies, participants will explore tailored solutions for a diverse range of sectors, from commercial hospitality and warehouses to critical environments such as healthcare facilities, pharmaceutical cleanrooms, and data centers, ensuring a holistic understanding of total system energy performance.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
By the end of this programme, participants should be able to:
