Description:

This lecture will cover the legal requirements for ventilation according to IECC 2018 and the health and energy impacts of going both above and below these minimums. The discussion will include when and where economizers are required and navigating the control setpoints when they are required. The talk will also include an analysis of demand control ventilation, parking garage ventilation, and energy recovery ventilation, each of which may be required depending on the project. This talk is intended for both mechanical engineers and architects who wish to understand the space, equipment, and controls required for bringing outside air into a building.


Bio:

Damon Woods

Dr. Woods is a licensed mechanical engineer who started working at the IDL as a graduate student back in 2013. His dissertation used energy models paired with weather forecasts to predict how a radiant slab should be managed to maximize occupant comfort. His current research focus is on the integration of surface temperatures into building energy management systems. Dr. Woods has taught courses in advanced thermodynamics and energy modeling. In the office, he spends his time working on energy models and estimating savings from energy upgrades; out of the office he is usually fly fishing or gardening. Dr. Woods earned his B.S. from Montana State University, his M.S. from Boise State University and his Ph.D. from the University of Idaho.
