When designing an HVAC system, you can face a large number of 
constraints. The final system needs to ensure proper thermal 
comfort for the occupants as well as energy efficiency while 
meeting different industry standards such as ASHRAE 55.

With the advent of CFD simulation, designers can now easily 
test and optimize their HVAC configurations from the initial 
design stage. CFD allows engineers to make alterations to 
existing designs based on simulation results, without the need 
to build physical prototypes.

In this short webinar, the design of an HVAC system for a large 
theater room will be analyzed with CFD, and a second improved 
configuration will be designed and suitably tested. The main 
decisions explored in this particular analysis are the inlet 
and outlet ventilation locations.

By participating, you will learn:

- How mechanical engineers and HVAC engineers can ensure 
thermal comfort in an interior space
- How engineers can ensure compliance with ASHRAE 55 and other 
standards for thermal comfort in buildings
- How SimScale enables everyone with a normal PC or laptop and 
Internet connection to run sophisticated CFD simulations and 
easily test their designs
