Join Journal Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski and Joseph Schwartz as they discuss the transformation of a decommissioned power plant at Michigan State University into a state-of-the-art STEM teaching and learning facility.
Mold problems are more common than most people realize in both new and older single-family and multifamily housing, potentially causing serious indoor air quality (IAQ) problems. Join Journal Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski and George Tsongas as they discuss mold problems inside housing and why they are critical to address.
Join Journal Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski along with guests Apoorv Khanuja and Amanda Webb as they discuss recommendations and more for naming and categorizing energy efficiency measures (EEMs). In the first recommendation? Clearly describe what’s being done.
Join David Traxler and Journal Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski as they discuss some of the patterns he found when studying 50 energy efficient net zero energy buildings.
Building graphics are the windows into system performance. Join Journal Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski and Brian Clark as they discuss what makes a good building graphic and tips to improve them.
Sustainability starts with maintenance. Michael Gallagher helps us remember that if a sustainable building can’t be kept running the way it was intended to run, it isn’t sustainable.
Join Kathleen Owen and Journal technical editor Rebecca Matyasovski as they discuss some ins and outs of particle filters, including particle capture and the economic impact of different filters.
Performing arts patrons don’t usually think about HVAC design when deciding to attend an event. But if the system designers don’t notice, patrons might. Join Coral Pais as she discusses how acoustics were considered when designing a Cleveland performing arts center.
Surgical patients release waste anesthetic gases that can cause potential health effects for people who care for patients in the post-anesthesia care unit. Kishor Khankari, Ph.D., Fellow ASHRAE, discusses optimizing its ventilation design to effectively remove these gases and reduce exposure.
Join Michael Licastro, Associate Member ASHRAE, and Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski as they discuss using hydronic HVAC systems to aid in decarbonization.
Did you know milk dust and flour, among other dusts, are explosive? Combustible dusts require the use of dust collectors. Join Chris Jester, Associate Member ASHRAE, and Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski as they discuss the design of dust collector systems, including air velocity and duct sizing, safety considerations, motor requirements and relevant codes.
Join Mike Gallagher, P.E., Life Member ASHRAE, and Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski as they discuss the monthslong saga to fix what started out as a small gas leak in the furnace room of his church—just before Christmas.
Andy Pearson shares some of the upheaval in which scientist Sadi Carnot performed his work, including for the science we now call “thermodynamics.”
