Assignment CSTHVAC701 LU 2

This document contains an assignment on heat, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems for a construction technology module. It includes 8 multiple choice and calculation questions that assess understanding of HVAC concepts like ventilation types, duct velocity and material, air flow equations, fresh air volume requirements, maximum air change rates, duct pressure loss calculations, and mechanical fan performance data with changes in speed. Students are asked to answer the questions and show working for calculations, with the assignment due for submission on a specified date and time.

5. The volume of fresh air required for the removal of body odor is influenced by the air space per
person, the volume decreases as the air space per person increases. /2 Marks
a. True
b. False
6. The maximum rate of air change is __________ /2 Marks

20°C. Find the pressure loss in the duct by using the friction chart. /3 Marks

b) Calculate A 10 m long ventilation duct is required to provide air at 0.10 m3/sec at a


pressure drop of 0.15 mm wg and check that the calculated diameter correlates with the
given flow rate (Q) . /3 Marks
8. A mechanical ventilation system has the following fan characteristics: /5 Marks
