Objective

• The objective of this course is to provide learners with in-depth knowledge and practical skills in performing HVAC load calculations using Carrier’s HAP (Hourly Analysis Program) software.

• The training aims to enable participants to accurately estimate heating and cooling loads for different types of buildings, ensuring energy efficiency, comfort, and compliance with international standards.

• By the end of the course, learners will be confident in applying HAP for real-world design projects, optimizing HVAC system sizing and selection.

Subject Description

• This subject covers the fundamentals and advanced applications of HVAC load calculation using HAP software.

• It begins with an introduction to load calculation principles, including internal and external heat gains, weather data, building envelope properties, occupancy, lighting, and equipment loads.

• Participants will then learn how to model buildings in HAP, input data effectively, and generate detailed load reports.

• The course also emphasizes interpreting results for equipment sizing, energy analysis, and system selection. Real-life case studies and hands-on exercises ensure that learners develop practical expertise in applying HAP for residential, commercial, and industrial projects.
