Summary: | This article serves to summarise the knowledge and experience gained by the author
during his ten weeks of engineering internship with United Engineers (Singapore) Pte
Ltd. The air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation (ACMV) system is the product
of the knowledge gained from understanding of heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and
machine design. Almost all modern buildings are fitted with ACMV systems to
provide necessary ventilation to occupants and are hence an important component in
the construction industry. This article will provide the reader with a basic
understanding of the flow of processes that leads up to ACMV installations in
buildings by contractors in general. Different types of ACMV systems available in the
market will also be discussed. The reader would also be able to better appreciate the
precautions taken during design, selection and installation with regards to fire safety. |
