SUMMARY:February 2021 Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Location: Online Meeting ID \nShare Meeting Topic: Variable Primary Flow (VPF) Systems Classification: Intermediate When we consider a chilled water system configuration\, such as VPF\, it is beneficial to examine and compare the new system with conventional systems. While VPF systems have now been in use for over 20 years\, the system still must be designed and operated properly to provide the expected benefits to the building owner. This presentation covers: A brief overview of primary-secondary systems\, and a comparison with VPF Why are people considering VPF today\, when it was not allowed in the past? Challenges associated with varying water flow through the chiller’s evaporator Plant sequencing\, and various chilled water plant configurations that might be considered Control\, specification and operating issues And even systems that should not be considered for VPF design. Speaker: Mick Schwedler\, PE\, FASHRAE\, LEED ® AP BD+C Mick has been involved in the development and support of HVAC systems for Trane since 1982. As an applications engineer his areas of expertise include system optimization (in which he holds patents) and chilled water and water source heat pump system design.

SUMMARY:September 2019 Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Location: Idaho Power Building 1221 W. Idaho St. Boise\, ID 83702 \nShare Speaker: Wesley Stanfill – Chapter President Topic: ASHRAE’s New Strategic Plan This plan\, developed by the ASHRAE Planning Committee in collaboration with the Board of Directors\, will guide the work of the Society during the five-year period from 2019-2024. It was developed during 2018-2019 through a process initiated by a stakeholder engagement exercise involving members of ASHRAE and key industry organizations who gave their views on ASHRAE’s position in the industry and its perceived strengths and challenges. With facilitation by the Planning Committee\, the BOD then conducted a brainstorming session to develop preliminary objectives and initiatives. These included both outward-facing issues affecting the industry and society as well as inward-facing issues related to the needs of ASHRAE members and organizational efficiency. The final phase of development was preparation of implementation plans\, tracking procedures\, promotional roll-out and budget estimates. The final plan was drafted by the Planning Committee with board oversight following multiple reviews\, including review by Regional leadership teams. Communication of the new plan to councils and committees began in Spring 2019 with formal implementation beginning in July 2019. Outcomes: Higher levels of member engagement\, satisfaction and loyalty Increased operational efficiency and market responsiveness Demonstrated leadership in meeting societal needs through expanded research\, application to practice and strategic partnerships Increased awareness of ASHRAE and use of its technical resources among priority stakeholders Increased global adaptation of ASHRAE Standards Increased breadth in ASHRAE’s product offerings Tickets $0.00 Member Ticket $15.00 Guest Ticket $0.00 Student Ticket

SUMMARY:March 2019 Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Location: Idaho Power Building 1221 W. Idaho St. Boise\, ID 83702 \nShare When natural refrigerants were new to commercial refrigeration\, the competitive landscape for system selection was between traditional system types that used synthetic refrigerants or natural refrigerant technologies. Now that natural refrigerant technologies are mainstream\, we've begun to see the system selection process shift to comparisons between the various natural refrigerants . How do carbon dioxide\, ammonia\, and propane compare to each other in terms of market penetration\, cost\, energy efficiency\, and performance? We will provide insights from an engineering consultants perspective. Speaker: Dustin Lilya PE\, DC Engineering Dustin is a graduate of the University of Idaho with a variety of experience including stints at both Micron and Supervalu before joining the team at DC Engineering in 2011.

When to use it? And maybe most importantly\, when NOT to use it. The presentation will hit key highlights from VRF Chapter of the ASHRAE Handbook. In addition\, this presentation cover the most important design considerations for VRF systems\, including some best practices and lessons learned from real-life applications. A combined VRF and DOAS building system offers many advantages\, such as energy efficiency\, enhanced occupant comfort\, and reduced mechanical system space requirements. To realize these benefits and meet the requirements of the space (sensible temperature\, humidity ratio\, and ventilation requirements)\, the designer must pay close attention to system design and application. This presentation will cover basic system design concepts for a VRF + DOAS system\, advantages and disadvantages of various system designs\, and key considerations for meeting code and space requirements.

SUMMARY:January 2019 Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Location: Idaho Power Building 1221 W. Idaho St. Boise\, ID 83702 \nShare Topic: Achieve peak building performance by engaging building owners and operators through the Commissioning and Retro-commissioning processes One of the most prevalent issues in engineering/construction industry is the disconnect that can exist between the design\, construction\, and operational phases of a facility. There are a handful of key points during a project that can have long lasting impact on the performance of a facility. Project leaders who build these critical process into their work can realize substantial financial savings for the organizations they work for. Speaker: Jesse Barnum\, Building Services Manager St. Luke’s Meridian Medical Center Jesse thought he knew what he wanted to be when he grew up\, so he earned a B.A in Philosophy from Boise State University along with German\, Latin\, and History minors. He didn’t realize that philosophy majors were notoriously unemployable\, so he decided to earn M.S. in Technology from Purdue University. Philosophy and Technology degrees may seem like an odd mix\, but it’s worked out better than ex-pected and he has learned to develop dynamic solutions to the unique problems faced in the health care physical environment. Jesse is also a Certified Healthcare Facility Manager. Jesse is now the manager for the Building Services Department at St. Luke’s Meridian Medical Center\, where the nuts and bolts of building operations really matter to the patients he’s working for. He is passionate about elevating the quality of patient care by pursuing better ways to design and manage health care facilities. Jesse and his wife Corey keep busy by raising their three kids\, Arthur (6yo)\, Ed-mund (2yo)\, and Edith newborn). They enjoy cooking and baking\, they are avid gar-deners\, and are working toward having a small farm someday. Tickets $0.00 Member Ticket $15.00 Non-Member Ticket $0.00 Student Ticket
