![]() ![]() Let me finish by reiterating the importance of finding a mentor, no company is worth working for at the cost of ruining your career before it gets started. ![]() Recognizing when something is 'off' is a skill that comes with time and experience and where a mentor is invaluable. As often happens with me a piece of information gets missed during steps 1-5, when this happens cooling loads in step 6 will be off. This is where you are getting stuck and this is where you need an experienced engineer to help and teach you the trade.Ĩ) Tweak inputs as needed. to do that right click a system and select Print/View Design Resultsħ) Analyze the results. Like the spaces window work left to right on the tabs, what you input on the General tab will affect options on other tabs.Īt this point you will done with inputting data for most jobs, the job is a campus (multiple buildings) you can add buildings and plants as needed.Ħ) You are now ready to start calculating loads. It is okay to skip a tab or leave select requirements blank or 0 (not every room will have a roof or an exterior wall), if HAP needs a requirement such as a schedule, it will let you know and prevent you from moving to the next tab or closing the window.ĥ) Build your systems. In the Space properties window, start with the general tab and work left to right. If/when you get into simulating and doing calculations for LEED, you will need to adjust these but that is a different topic for a different time.Ĥ) Build your spaces. If all you are doing is calculations for sizing purposes, leaving the people/equipment at 100% 24/7 is all you need, same with the t'stat schedule, leave them 'occupied' all day. A second is for thermostats and set the system to occupied/unoccupied. A schedule for people/occupant or equipment, set a percentage for each hour of the day. Regarding HAP, I use this myself and the steps I go through when doing a load is as follows:Ģ) Build your libraries, input all applicable information for walls, roofs, windows, doors, shades.ģ) Set your schedules. If your company is not looking for or refuses to find you a mentor, quit while you're ahead. Let me first say that I agree 100% with Drazen, you need to find a mentor and work with him/her for several years.Īlso, unless you have your Professional Engineering license (being fresh from school, I am doubting that), you and your company are teetering with a legal trouble as any plans/specs submitted to an AHJ requires a P.E. RE: HAP Carrier Software Help Drazen (Mechanical) 6 Jan 16 13:20 (VAV,CAV) and maybe get some tips from you fellow engrs. I want to know how to design the tonnage or required CFM of a given space using this software as well as which type of Units should I use or input in HAP. They always use Split Units,Concealed Type and Package Types. My company usually construct villa's, offices and schools here in KSA. I tried many times using the software but i dont know if my calculations are correct. And I need your guides on how can i design cooling/heating load. :(( Even my boss doesn't know about this software. I have no one to ask about this software. Our company is a new construction company. pdf manual guide and basics of inputting data values etc. I tried to search tutorials of this software, so far I only get the. ![]() They provided me this HAP Carrier software.
