Meeting Program: Improved Indoor Air Quality with VAV Systems

Indoor air quality is of increasing concern as society redefines the needs of the indoor environment. This talk presents a new perspective on the topic, starting with the fundamental dynamics of psychometric instability and its affect upon the controlled environment. Against this background, the evolution of VAV system technology and its capability of addressing the results of this instability are discussed. System directed solutions will be presented which will reflect a significant departure from existing design practices. The speaker is William J. Coad, ASHRAE President Elect, an ASHRAE, distinguished lecturer, and a principal and immediate past chairman of McClure Engineering Associates, a leading consulting engineering firm in St. Louis, Missouri. Mr. Coad has over forty years experience in the design, installation and operation of HVAC systems and for twenty-nine years was an affiliate professor of mechanical engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. He has published numerous articles, papers and books on various aspects of HVAC systems, is a co-author and lecturer of the ASHRAE Professional Design Seminar on air system design, and has received numerous awards for his achievements in advancing the sciences of Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning including ASHRAE’s highest award for technical achievement, the F. Paul Anderson award.

Tech Session

The subject for our November Tech Session is Heat Recovery. This seminar will inform you of the latest applications of Heat Wheels and Air to Air heat recovery systems. The focus is on educating consulting engineers when heat recovery makes sense, when to use either technology and explain the decision process of choosing heat recovery in factory packaged vs. custom units. The presenters will be Tim Saunders of Emmons and Finn and Steve Ehrman of York Corporation, both of whom have a diversified background in our industry.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Octobers Chapter meeting was a huge success! Great attendance and an pertinent topic got our Central Indiana Chapter off to another great year. Thanks to Mac Stewart for coordinating this program. I want to thank all members and guests who participated at this chapter meeting. It is through your direct participation and involvement that continues to strengthen our chapter. Please join me in thanking, Tom Durkin for his feature presentation on "How to Prevent Low Delta-T in Chilled Water Systems". Also thanks goes out to Fuller Engineering for presenting our technical session on variable frequency drives. Fuller also, sponsor the October meeting helping to defray the cost of the meeting for each of our chapter members. Thanks to Mitch LaClaire Regional Vice Chair-Student Activities for his visit to our Chapter Board Meeting and dinner. As always, were pleased to have had student chapter members from Purdue University visit with us. Next month Deanne Moreland will provide the kick off to our chapter Research and Promotion efforts. This effort is vital to the success and is at the core mission of ASHRAE Society. Please support Deanne Moreland in her leadership of this very important mission.

I am pleased to inform you that our Region-Five Chair Margaret Drake will be visiting our Chapter at our November 14th program. Please join in with me to provide a warm reception for Margaret. Margaret is in her last year as Chair for our Region. She has done an outstanding job in providing the leadership and assistance to all of us during her term as chair. Margaret, The Central Indiana Chapter has appreciated your time, efforts and leadership!

The board has another great theme and topic for November! So call your dinner reservation early to Dianne Trace at Havel Brothers. Remind your fellow chapter members and bring a guest! See you November 14th.
