1. The primary functions of an HVAC system include ? a.air conditioning (cooling)
. b.heating
c.ventilating
2. In addition to the primary functions of an HVAC Air filtration
system, what are some additional functions of an b.Humidity control
HVAC system?
3. Heating and cooling functions of the HVAC system thermodynamics
rely on the basic principles of ? and heat transfer.
4. An HVAC system is classified as one of two groups I. and III.
based on the method used to distribute heat en-
ergy throughout the building. What are the two
groups?
I. Forced- air system
II. Heat-exchange system
III. Hydronic system
IV. Multizone system
5. What is the hub of a forced-air system? Air-handling unit (AHU)
6. Which of the following is not a component typically X.
associated with a forced-air air-handling unit?
I. Cooling coils
II. Dampers
III. Dehumidifiers
IV. Ductwork
V. Fans
VI. Filters
VII. Heating coils
VIII. Humidifiers

IX. Sensors
X. Throttling valve
7. There are ? types of air that air-handling units man- 5
age. These are the five types of air
that air-handling units man-
age:1. Return air2. Outside air3.
Mixed air4. Exhaust air5. Supply
air
8. What are the two methods by which air-handling I. and IV.
units introduce conditioned air into the building
spaces to achieve climate control?
I. Constant volume
II. Mixed volume
III. Static volume
IV. Variable volume
9. The disadvantage of a ? air-handling unit is that constant air-volume
the fans operate at maximum power whenever the
unit is running, even upon a very small load.
10. A ? is a device located at the building zone that variable air-volume (VAV) termi-
provides heating and airflow as needed in order to nal box
maintain the desired set points within the building
zone.
11. What type of HVAC system distributes water or Hydronic system
steam throughout a building as the transfer medi-
um for heating and cooling systems?
12. Which of the following components are not typi- III.
cally associated with a hydronic heating or cooling Heating coils, cooling coils, sen-
