Students design a sustainable future
ASHRAE has declared the winners of the 2023 Scholar Design and style Competition and the Setty Relatives Basis Used Engineering Challenge.
Students have been challenged to style the HVAC procedure for a laboratory facility found in Cairo, Egypt, for the 2023 Pupil Style and design Competitiveness. This consisted of a massive single-tale creating with a rooftop penthouse equalling about 2,515m2.
The teams have been invited to compete in one particular of a few groups:
- HVAC style calculations
- HVAC technique selection
- Setty Family members Foundation net zero energy structure.
Jackson Fritch, John Latta, and Clayton Riley from the University of Nebraska (Lincoln, Nebraska) received the HVAC design and style calculations group.
