This course provides a comprehensive overview of heat pump technology, focusing on its role in modern heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) systems. Students will explore the fundamentals of heat transfer, learning how heat pumps use electricity to efficiently move heat between spaces rather than generating it. The course will also cover reversible heat pumps that can provide both heating and cooling by utilizing a reversing valve to control refrigerant flow through evaporator and condenser coils. Participants will gain insight into the energy efficiency of heat pumps, their applications in residential and commercial environments, and the principles behind maintaining comfortable indoor climates.
This course is ideal for HVAC professionals, engineers, and individuals interested in energy-efficient climate control technologies.
