ASHRAE Product Directory 2017 – 2018 ASHRAE Product Directory 2017 – 2018 Central Florida Chapter of ASHRAE http://ashrae-cfl.org/ 55 Years of Excellence Page 1 Foreword This FY 2017-2018 Directory of the Manufacturers’ Representatives was prepared by the Central Florida Chapter of ASHRAE to foster better communications between all segments of the local industry. Listings are not limited to ASHRAE members. THE DIRECTORY IS NOT ADVERTISEMENT NOR CONSTITUTES ANY ENDORSEMENT OF ANY PRODUCT OR COMPANY BY ASHRAE. The information herein was furnished by listing firms, and is edited to give as much conformity to basic information as possible. The Chapter cannot be responsible for errors or inaccuracies that might occur. A committee consisting of ASHRAE members prepared the Directory. Firms not listed that would like to be included in future annual issues should contact one of the BOARD OF GOVERNORS listed in the proceeding pages. From the desk of the Chapter President, Welcome to this year’s Product Directory. I want to thank our valued vendors who participated in making this year’s Product Directory an efficient tool for designers, owners and contractors. In particular, I would like to thank and recognize Tom Edwards for the time and effort he dedicates to this effort each year. His time spent behind the scenes often goes unrecognized, but the Directory would not be possible without his involvement. The proceeds from this Directory help fund the Shrimp Boil and all other social events the Chapter offers to its members. In the following pages, you will find a one-stop resource for manufacturer’s products. In today’s ever changing landscape, the Directory provides up to date vendor product lines. Filled with comprehensive vendor contact information, this document offers a convenient resource for locating the correct product solution for the customer’s need. The Directory has two cross references. The first is a generic product name to manufacturer. The second is manufacturer to vendor, thus closing the loop from product to vendor. In addition to product vendor references, you will find a listing of Chapter Officers, Regional Officers, Chapter meeting dates/locations, local design firms and contractors, and a quick reference list of common engineering equations. This is regularly updated and provided for your convenience. Please obtain a copy of the Directory from your vendors. It is our hope that your copy will provide value on a daily basis. We look forward to seeing you at our dinner meetings, social events, golf tournaments and annual Shrimp Boil. Thank you, Paul Albers Page 2 Table of Contents Contents Foreword ................................................................................................................................................................... 2 From the desk of the Chapter President, .................................................................................................................. 2 Table of Contents ...................................................................................................................................................... 3 ACCUAIR, INC – BARD ENGINEERED PRODUCTS SPECIALIST AND DISTRIBUTOR ...................................... 5 A.D.E ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS OF FLORIDA, INC ............................................................................................ 6 ANDREWS FILTER & SUPPLY CORP. .................................................................................................................... 9 BLUMENAUER CORP ............................................................................................................................................ 10 CARRIER CORPORATION .................................................................................................................................... 11 CARROLL AIR SYSTEMS, INC. ............................................................................................................................. 12 CUNNINGHAM SALES ........................................................................................................................................... 15 DEREK EMBODY & COMPANY ............................................................................................................................. 16 DE HVAC ASSOCIATES, INC. ............................................................................................................................... 17 FLORIDA HYDRONICS, INC. ................................................................................................................................. 18 FLOW CONTROL TECHNOLOGY COMPANY LLC .............................................................................................. 21 GEORGE A.

The International Energy Agency (lEA) was established as an autonomous body within the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to administer that agreement. Twenty-one countries are currently members of the lEA, with the Commission of the European Communities participating under a special arrangement. As one element of the International Energy Program, the Participants undertake cooperative activities in energy research, development, and demonstration. A number of new and improved energy technologies which have the potential of making significant contributions to our energy needs were identified for collaborative efforts. The lEA Committee on Energy Research and Development (CRD), assisted by a small Secretariat staff, coordinates the energy research, development, and demonstration programme.

H. Vaughan, Co-Ühairman t ” · * _ J. S. Cundiff, Co-Chair n J. L. Steele February 25, 1988 Blacksburg, Virginia I Investigation of a Simulation Modelfor Peanut Drying lncorporating Air Recirculation bv _ Gamalathge Don Kulasiri D. H. Vaughan, Co-Chairman _ Agricultural Engineering (ABSTRACT) Virginia type peanuts were dried in three laboratory dryers to verify a simulation model based on Troeger and Butler’s drying equations. The energy saving potential of air recircu- lation was also investigated. Four tests consisting of eleven drying experiments were con- ducted in Fall, 1986. Two air recirculation schedules were employed and three average air flow rates were used. An experimental procedure was developed to measure input and output parameters of the drying system. The weight loss of the top layer of the peanut bed was re- corded with a data acquisition system. The electrical energy input to the heaters was also recorded. Based on the analysis of the data, the following conclusions were made: (1) The Troeger model predicted a lower moisture release rate than the actual rate for Virginia type peanuts. (2) lf the break points in the Troeger model were changed to 0.20 and 0.70 from 0.12 and 0.40, respectively, the model predicted the final moisture content more accurately.

The material contained in this course was researched, assembled, and produced by Berner International and remains its property Purpose and Learning Objectives Purpose: An air curtain, also known as an air door, employs a controlled stream of air aimed across an opening to create an air seal. This seal separates different environments while allowing a smooth, unhindered flow of traffic and unobstructed vision through the opening. This course discusses how air curtains work and why they can contribute to occupant comfort, energy efficiency, and indoor air quality when the door is open. It also reviews how air curtains improve whole-building energy efficiency versus conventional methods. Learning Objectives: At the end of this program, participants will be able to: • describe air curtains in terms of their components, function, and operation • discuss how air curtains enhance the safety of a entrance or opening by evaluating air curtain design criteria to determine the correct size and placement of an air curtain for a specific application • explore the benefits of air curtains to determine how they improve occupant thermal comfort levels and reduce whole-building energy use • recognize why it is necessary to specify the right air curtain and controls to achieve optimal air curtain effects for environmental separation, to reduce dust, fume, and insect infiltration, and to maintain air movement control • identify industry building codes and testing standards relevant to air curtains, and • refer to case studies to illustrate the efficiency of air curtains for energy savings, climate separation, and comfortable air temperature.

  • Ventilation Parameters and Airborne Particulate
    April 2, 2021 Joe Crelier, Director–Risk Management Portland Public Schools 501 N Dixon Street Portland, Oregon Via email: [email protected] Regarding: COVID Response Indoor Air Quality Testing Report Rieke Elementary School 1405 SW Vermont Street Portland, Oregon PBS Project 25000.138 Dear Mr. Crelier: On March 24, 2021, PBS Engineering and Environmental Inc. (PBS) performed indoor air quality testing in Rieke Elementary School located at the address above. These services were provided to Portland Public Schools (District) to measure air quality parameters before schools and district-owned buildings are opened again for reoccupancy. As part of these indoor air quality testing services, PBS measured carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (°F), relative humidity (%RH), and airborne particulate (PM2.5 and PM10). Additionally, PBS reviewed and inventoried accessible components of the test rooms’ heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems Based on PBS’ findings, the multipurpose room and the kitchen tested below the recommended range for indoor air temperatures. These areas should be monitored for temperature complaints. The results of the testing and assessment indicates that indoor air quality in the building is good and that the building is acceptable for occupancy. While PBS observed no measurable indoor air quality concerns in any of the rooms that were tested, PBS did not test every occupiable room in each building. This investigation has been performed in concert with a concerted effort on the part of the District to perform regular inspections and repair of all HVAC mechanical systems throughout the District. Additionally, it is the District’s policy that rooms without adequate ventilation will not be utilized moving forward.
