Fan Performance Curves (On-Demand)

Webinar

Fan Performance Curves - A Deep Dive – 1 Hour Credit Course Description: Let’s build a fan curve! We’ll start by collecting data on a real fan, and then use the fan laws to extrapolate all the require data. Then we’ll use the curves to size up fans and motors, and along the way we’ll look into eEiciency’s, safety margins, density, and even system eEect. We condensed a wealth of knowledge into 1 video that connects all the dots. Prerequisite Knowledge: None.

Norbec – How To Specify a Custom Walk-In Cooler – (1 CEU)

Course Description​: Walk-in coolers and freezers are not just for restaurants. They’re found in schools, hospitals, food-processing plants, and laboratories. Sometimes a stocked, prefabricated walk-in will suffice, but most coolers and freezers require a custom solution.​ This course will walk you through the specification considerations for a custom walk-in including size, temperature, refrigeration, energy efficiency, floors, doors, and more. You’ll see how each area relates to one another in supporting an energy-conscious and durable walk-in assembly.​   Learning Objectives​: At the end of this course, participants will be able to: ​ Review all components of a walk-in cooler/freezer assembly and how an energy-efficient refrigeration system works.​ Identify all the considerations when determining the size of a walk-in cooler including the products to be stored, shelves and carts, ventilation, and future needs.​ Determine a walk-in’s temperature based on type of products, humidity, usage, and more.​ Acknowledge the importance of the cooler’s insulated panels’ R-value, efficient refrigeration, and controls/monitors to meet or exceed energy-administration requirements. ​ Explain how walk-in panels contribute to LEED v4.​ Address the importance of specifying the right door, floor, finishes, and other considerations   Contact Marilou Leclaire for more info - [email protected]
