<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div>Hi Anup,<br><br></div>You can check out the DOE 2.2 Manual (Page 102) where you have simple illustrations and explanation.<br><br><a href="http://doe2.com/download/DOE-22/DOE22Vol1-Basics.pdf">http://doe2.com/download/DOE-22/DOE22Vol1-Basics.pdf</a><br>
<br></div>After reading that you will be able to correlate those with the Baseline systems. This is a quick guide only. <br><br>Also ASHRAE 90.1 users manual should be your friend. Lots of useful info for a beginner.<br><br>
</div>There are lots of other resources like the Trane and ASHRAE that have in depth courses or study material if you want to dive in deeper.<br><br></div>good luck<br><br></div>Regards<br></div>Ramya Shivkumar<br><br><div>

The material is purely educational…there is no sales pitch attached, which is refreshing. You can purchase a number of booklets on various topics. The booklet most relevant to your needs right now would probably be the “Introduction to HVAC Systems” booklet, which is part of the Air Conditioning Clinic set. Here is a link to all of the booklets:<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<span lang="EN-IN">Hello All,<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IN"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IN">I am an Architect by training with my masters in Sustainable Buildings. I have been doing energy simulations for the past 2 years. During this progression of doing energy simulations, I have tried to acquire as much knowledge as possible with respect to Building thermodynamics, psychometrics, HVAC, ASHRAE etc. However, I still need to enhance my quest for this knowledge far beyond. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IN"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IN">I have struggled quite a bit to understand difference between different baseline systems in ASHRAE 90.1 Appedix G. ASHRAE do mentions what each system is, however doesn’t explain its working. I wanted to know if there is any material which explains these systems in details and importantly why and how one system is efficient over the other. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IN"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IN">I would be grateful if someone can share some info on the same.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-IN"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
