DJU40153 Air Conditioning System Design & Drawing (2:2025/2026)

Air Conditioning System Design and Drawing is a course that focuses on the principles, calculations, and technical drawings required to design complete HVAC systems for residential and commercial buildings.


🔧 Core Learning Areas

  • Cooling Load Calculation
    Determine the amount of heat to be removed from a space.

  • Equipment Selection
    Choose suitable systems such as split units, VRF, AHU, and chillers.

  • Duct Design
    Plan air distribution systems (size, layout, airflow).

  • Piping Design
    Design chilled water or refrigerant piping systems.

  • System Layout Drawing
    Produce HVAC drawings including ducting, piping, and equipment placement.


📐 Skills Developed

  • Perform basic and intermediate HVAC calculations

  • Interpret and produce technical drawings (layout & schematic)

  • Apply design standards (e.g., ASHRAE guidelines)

  • Understand real-world system integration

🎯 Course Objective

To equip students with the knowledge and practical skills to design efficient, safe, and cost-effective air conditioning systems, and to present the design clearly through professional technical drawings.


✅ Outcome

At the end of the course, students should be able to:

  • Design a complete HVAC system

  • Select appropriate equipment

  • Produce clear and accurate HVAC drawings

  • Apply theory into practical building applications
