This month, we at Engineered Systems magazine celebrate and highlight the winners of our 20 to Watch: Women in HVAC contest. 

Celebrating the winners of this year’s 20 to Watch: Women in HVAC contest.

This month, I will continue to discuss the forgotten skills of steam system design. 

Thirty years ago, 14 individuals lost their lives in a heinous murder that will forever be known as the “Montreal Massacre.”

When I started out at an HVAC consulting engineering firm back in the 1960s, our services were primarily focused on hospital design engineering. Back then, steam system engineering was standard for those building applications.

Will smart cities define the future of American infrastructure, or will strapped budgets and closed-mind thinking force us to dwell in “dumb” cities?

With variable refrigerant flow (VRF) HVAC systems growing in popularity, engineering refrigeration systems can become very intimidating to many design engineers.

HVACR engineering is chock full of barriers. Whether it’s a lack of qualified employees, design challenges, budgetary issues, security concerns, etc., there’s seemingly always something in the way, throttling your progress.
