HVAC
In this category, we address the design, modernization and operation of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems in industrial and commercial facilities. We examine thermal load calculations, system sizing, hydraulic balancing, air distribution strategies and integration of HVAC infrastructure with building automation systems. Particular attention is given to energy efficiency, seasonal performance indicators and long-term operational reliability.
We publish technical analyses of heat pumps, industrial boilers, district heating interfaces, chilled water systems, VRF installations, large-scale ventilation units and hybrid heating solutions. Topics include system commissioning, retrofitting legacy installations, life-cycle cost evaluation and compliance with energy performance regulations.
