Energy Efficiency and Green HVAC Technologies

The Energy Efficiency and Green HVAC Technologies Simulation provides students with hands-on experience in installing and operating energy-efficient HVAC systems and integrating green technologies like geothermal heat pumps, solar-assisted systems, and energy recovery ventilators (ERVs). Students will virtually install and operate these systems while measuring energy consumption and system performance. Scenarios include integrating renewable energy sources like solar panels into HVAC systems. Real-time feedback will focus on energy savings, system performance, and environmental impact.

Gas Furnace Installation and Repair

The Gas Furnace Installation and Repair Simulation teaches students to install and repair gas furnaces, with a focus on proper venting and safety protocols for working with natural gas. Virtual scenarios guide students through connecting gas lines, ductwork, and venting systems for gas furnaces. Interactive exercises help students practice lighting pilot lights, adjusting gas valves, and monitoring flame sensors. The simulation provides feedback on safety practices, combustion efficiency, and troubleshooting issues like gas leaks, ignition failures, or cracked heat exchangers.

HVAC Load Calculation and System Sizing

The HVAC Load Calculation and System Sizing Simulation teaches students how to calculate heating and cooling loads and properly size HVAC systems for different buildings. Virtual tools are provided for load calculation, factoring in building insulation, square footage, number of occupants, and climate conditions. Students then engage in interactive scenarios to select the appropriate HVAC equipment based on the calculated loads. Real-time feedback is provided on the accuracy of system sizing, energy efficiency, and overall occupant comfort.

Medication Administration and Dosage Calculation

The Medication Administration and Dosage Calculation module trains nursing students in accurate medication administration, precise dosage calculations, and strategies to prevent medication errors. Through immersive virtual simulations and interactive exercises, students practice critical skills in preparing and administering various medications while adhering to essential safety protocols.

Bioprocess Engineering and Scale-Up
