What is a HVAC system ?

HVAC is an acronym for Heating, Ventilation and Air
Conditioning.
HVAC is a historical term that is commonly known today as
air conditioning.
A HVAC system maintains and controls the conditions of

What are the main processes carried out by a

HVAC system ?
Ventilation - the process of exchanging air between the
outdoors and the conditioned space.
Air movement - the process of circulating and mixing air
through conditioned spaces.
Cleaning - the process of removing particles and biological
contaminants in the air.
Heating
- the process of adding thermal energy (heat) to the air

Refrigeration Process
Refrigeration is the process of removing heat at a low

temperature level & rejecting it at a relatively higher
temperature level.
Refrigerant is nothing but heat carrier i.e. heat carrying

medium.

Unitary AC Units. (Split systems. DX System)

As the name implies, the air conditioner is
split into two parts, refrigeration and
ventilating parts.
The refrigeration part consists of a
compressor and an air cooled condenser.
The ventilating part consists of a fan and
an evaporator to cool or heat the air.

All - Water Systems. ( 2-pipe fan coil unit

system.)
Two water pipes are led to each fan coil unit,
cold water is pumped in summer,
hot water in winter.
Thus only cold water or hot water is available at the
fan coil units at any one time.
It is not possible to cool a room and
simultaneously heat an adjacent room on
the
