Ventilation, Air
Conditioning and
Refrigeration.
What is HVACR?
Heating
• It is required when the
temperature outside is less
than inside.
• The process of increasing
the temperature inside the
specific area.
Ventilation
• It is the process of sending
the stale air out from the
specific area.
Air conditioning
• It is defined as the process
which cools or heats,
cleans, circulates air and
controls its moisture content
simultaneously.
Refrigeration
• It is the process of
removing heat from a
substance and rejecting
the heat to the
atmosphere which is at a
higher temperature level.
Why We require Air
conditioning?
Comfort: Domestic,
Showrooms, Offices,
Shopping malls, Banks,
Restaurants, Bars, etc….
Commercial : Industrial
Applications, Hospitals,
Laboratories, Clean rooms,
etc…..
• Human comfort is nothing but condition of
mind, which expresses satisfaction with the
thermal environment.
• Human beings will emit heat due to the
metabolic activity.
• If the surrounding temperature is less
compared to the human body temperature,
then heat transfer from the body to the
surroundings will take place.
• Moisture level in the surrounding is also an
important factor. The accumulation of the
moisture will result in body odour and can
cause discomfort.
• Industrial applications like high
precision tooling, CNC machine
operations, Pharmaceuticals,
laboratories will require controlled
environment.
• Air conditioning is also a part of
that .A specific temperature and
moisture level will be necessity for
such type of application.
Why we require
Refrigeration?
• It is required to provide a storage space
for food and consumables maintaining
a low temperature below freezing point
so as to preserve them.
• Refrigeration is also used for the
formation of ice cubes in domestic
application as well.
• It mainly makes use of vapour
compression and absorption cycle, but
vapour compression cycle is
universally adopted.
Heat Transfer Methods
• Conduction
• Convection
• Radiation
