Topic: Understanding Psychrometrics

Understanding psychrometrics is at the heart of HVAC comfort.  It is utterly impossible to discuss comfort without a thorough knowledge of psychrometrics.  Joel will explain the psychrometrics chart, and walk through examples of calculations using the chart. If you work in HVAC, and you don’t master psychrometrics, do not miss this presentation… you will leave this technical session with a much, much improved understanding of how air, temperature, water and energy work together.

Joel brings over 30 years of experience in HVAC in design, facilities management, project management, equipment sales and, training.  He is one of the two developers of the very popular HVAC Design Essentials Courses I and II, offered by ASHRAE. He brings an energetic and fun approach to teaching HVAC.
