Instructions:
  • Answer 25 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

7. Another method for saving energy is to reduce ____ to that required by the given environment; the cube law for fan horsepower can be used to estimate possible savings.






8. A typical fan has three main parts: a ____ - ____ - and the ____.






9. In these units - ____ flows through nozzles and induces additional room air flow into the unit.






10. ____ are usually used to regulate the flow of outside air into a system or to control the flow from one part of the system to another part - as in the case of a return air damper

15. The ____ provides heat or cooling by using a fan to move room air across heating or cooling coils and back into the room.






16. An ____ transforms the operating instructions for the desired environmental conditions into the air temperatures and ventilation volumes desired in the working environment.






17. The purpose of the ____ is to add or remove heat and moisture and remove undesirable air components from the facility in order to maintain the desired environmental conditions for people - products or equipment.






18. In a ____ - hot or cold water is pumped through coils and heats or cools air that is drawn around the coil by natural convection or by fans.

23. The typical components found in HVAC systems include ____ - ____ - ____ - ____ - ____ - ____ and a ____.






24. ____ vary depending on the fluid that is used as a heat exchange medium (usually water or air) - on the particular requirements for the system - and on the type of system that was in style when the building was originally built.






25. The ____ has the advantage that is can accommodate widely differing demands for heating and cooling in different zones of a building by changing the ratio of hot to cold air in each zone.
