PRINCIPLES OF RENEWABLE ENERGY AND ENERGY MANAGEMENT

Catalog description

In this course, the student is trained with the basic concepts of energy management. The different types of energy and basic concepts that are studied are: where it is located, how we can take advantage of it for residential use and improve the environment. In addition, it discusses the processes for auditing energy, analyzing consumption bills and conducting economic analyzes. In addition, electrical and mechanical systems, and how they directly affect energy consumption and management are analyzed. It includes strategies on control systems and other technologies to improve consumption spending. RACT 107 FUNDAMENTALS OF HVA INVERTERS AND VARIABLE REFRIGERANT VOLUME SYSTEM (VRV/VRF) 3 CREDITS In this course, the student is exposed to experiences that allow him to acquire the basic theoretical knowledge about the operation of the different components that integrate the Inverter technology in air conditioning systems. The different electronic stages and fault diagnostics in these systems are included. In addition, the basic fundamentals in the operation, characteristics and principles of the components, the electronics and the diagnosis of the systems are discussed. Finally, the student will acquire the appropriate knowledge to install, repair, diagnose the commercial and industrial air conditioning units of Variable Refrigerant Volume (VRV), also known as Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF), which are a type of system of central air conditioning of multi-split type.
