2. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

   Warm air systems distribute the heated air through ductwork systems of supply and return air through metal or fiberglass ducts. Many systems use the same ducts to distribute air cooled by an evaporator coil for air conditioning. The air supply is normally filtered through air filters [dubious – discuss] to remove dust and pollen particles. [15]

   4 – Heating and/or cooling coil 5 – Filter compartment 6 – Mixed (recirculated + outside) air duct A rooftop packaged unit or RTU. An air handler, or air handling unit (often abbreviated to AHU), is a device used to regulate and circulate air as part of a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning system. [1]

4. Glossary of HVAC terms - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_HVAC_terms

   HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) is a major sub discipline of mechanical engineering. The goal of HVAC design is to balance indoor environmental comfort with other factors such as installation cost, ease of maintenance, and energy efficiency. The discipline of HVAC includes a large number of specialized terms and acronyms, many ...

5. Air conditioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_conditioning

   Air conditioning equipment will reduce the absolute humidity of the air processed by the system if the surface of the evaporator coil is significantly cooler than the dew point of the surrounding air. An air conditioner designed for an occupied space will typically achieve a 30% to 60% relative humidity in the occupied space. [51]

6. Heat exchanger - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_exchanger

   For cooling coils, chilled water and refrigerant are most common. Chilled water is supplied from a chiller that is potentially located very far away, but refrigerant must come from a nearby condensing unit. When a refrigerant is used, the cooling coil is the evaporator, and the heating coil is the condenser in the vapor-compression ...

7. Evaporator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporator

   An industrial evaporator used in a chemical plant in Turkey. An evaporator is a type of heat exchanger device that facilitates evaporation by utilizing conductive and convective heat transfer, which provides the necessary thermal energy for phase transition from liquid to vapour. Within evaporators, a circulating liquid is exposed to an ...
