ACADEMIC RESEARCH

The American University of Iraq – Sulaimani Sulaimani,

Iraq
HVAC System in Presidential Building Facility September2014-
March2015

- Conducted a four-months case study for Applied Thermodynamics Class

- Found out how much heat is lost and/or gained to/from the ambient across the four different seasons by the

Presidential Building at the American University of Iraq-Sulaimani and also how much heat is added by the

residents of the building as humans is seen as heaters; they dissipate heat. The building was insulated

against the surrounding atmosphere with concrete walls and windows where I had find out the areas of

contact and then how much heat is lost or gained through such areas. The amount of chilled water or hot

water circulation flow rate we need to provide the building with so that the temperature inside is always

kept within the range of 20 to 25 degree Celsius which is seen as comforting temperature for humans to live

within.
