Location
Churchill High School
Our tour this month will be of a retrofit of Churchill High School within the Winnipeg School Division. The school was outfitted with unit ventilators within the classrooms which were heating-only units. The school division wanted to replace the units with a new heating system, add cooling and also make the system a more efficient heating and cooling plant overall. They replaced the unit ventilators with a ground source water-to-water heat pump system placing individual fan coils within each class where the unit ventilators were located. We will have the consulting engineer, Alliance Engineering, take us for a tour of the school noting what encompassed the changes and how they dealt with the difficulties of the school to leave the school with minimal interruptions. Please join us on Wednesday, April 19th for another great tour. After the tour, we’ll go to Low Life Barrel House. The chapter will provide food. Drinks are not included.

Below are some research projects that are being completed in our Region:
- Oregon State University:
My research goal is to continue to work on the development of commercially viable systems for producing heating, cooling, and/or power. To achieve this goal, I will continue a two-pronged approach of conducting a fundamental investigation of thermal phenomena (as in the work proposed here), and working collaboratively with faculty in manufacturing and industry to exploit the advantages of additive manufacturing techniques to realize new thermal components and systems. - University of British Columbia:
The Effect of Humidity, Temperature, and Particle Fouling on Permeation Properties of Polymer Membranes. - Oregon State University:
Experimental validation of models for heat and mass performance evaluation of membrane-based energy recovery devices.
