Full Description

Computer are used in a wide variety of applications in the HVAC industry. Rapid technological advances and the decreasing cost of computing power, memory, and secondary storage have changed many aspects of the HVAC industry. New HVAC design tools allow optimal solutions to be found in engineering applications. Building operations benefit from low-cost networking to achieve multivendor control system interoperability. Consulting engineers can search manufacturers equipment and specifications interactively over the Internet. Designers can collaborate from remote locations. More powerful applications that are also easier to use are now affordable by a wider segment of the industry; many HVAC calculations, such as heating and cooling loads, can be performed easily and automatically.
