This led some members to ask “why?” As a technical engineering society\, shouldn’t ASHRAE be focusing its efforts and the efforts of its volunteer members on industry-related research and education\, rather than furthering what some consider to be a political agenda? What role\, if any\, should ASHRAE play when it comes to diversity in the AEC community and social justice? Is there really a problem that needs to be solved? This highly-interactive\, engaging and thought-provoking presentation will tackle these questions head on by: \n  \n• Reviewing ASHRAE’s current Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion initiatives \n• Defining terminology – What exactly does DEI mean? \n• Discussing metrics\, trends\, and research \n• Encouraging a respectful exchange of ideas through an online digital platform than ensures privacy and anonymity. \nPresented by Devin Abellon. \nRegister here URL:https://www.orashrae.org/event/april-2023-chapter-meeting-diversity-equity-inclusion-and-ashrae-does-it-really-matter/ LOCATION:NW Natural\, 250 SW Taylor St\, Portland\, OR\, 97204\, United States CATEGORIES:Monthly Meetings END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230608T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230608T190000 DTSTAMP:20260425T090655 CREATED:20230601T011616Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230601T011734Z UID:2466-1686241800-1686250800@www.orashrae.org SUMMARY:June 2023 - Chapter Technical Meeting - Applications for Healthy Buildings DESCRIPTION:Achieving balance among desired goals for indoor air quality (IAQ)\, energy consumption\, and occupant Comfort / Health within the built environment is challenging. ASHRAE endeavors to achieve this through guidelines and standards focused on advancing building science as it relates to environmental quality. This presentation will review the commonly used design guides found in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1\, “Ventilation and Acceptable Indoor Air Quality.”  \n The current form of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2022 outlines mechanical ventilation procedures to provide acceptable IAQ in buildings: The Ventilation Rate Procedure and the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Procedure. While the Ventilation Rate Procedure provides only a dilution solution for the control of typical offending contaminants for a specified occupancy\, the IAQ Procedure provides a directed approach by reducing and controlling the concentrations of selected air contaminants of concern through both dilution and enhanced air cleaning. \n Rather than relying only on diluting the concentration of contaminants with outdoor air\, designing with enhanced filtration of both recirculated and ventilation outdoor air can improve IAQ\, reduce airborne infectious disease and enhance cognitive functioning within the occupied space. This presentation will focus on the application of enhanced particle\, gas-phase and biological filtration for compliance with Standard 62.1 and recently published information on the Control of Infectious Aerosols – Standard 241P. An outline of the design aspects to consider will be reviewed\, with the focus on achieving acceptable levels of contaminants of concern within the occupied space while considering the desire to meet healthy building standards and improved cognitive functioning. \nPresented by Brian Monk \nRegister here URL:https://www.orashrae.org/event/june-2023-chapter-technical-meeting-applications-for-healthy-buildings/ LOCATION:Shine Distillery\, 4232 N Williams Ave\, Portland\, OR\, 97217\, United States CATEGORIES:Monthly Meetings END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230504 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230505 DTSTAMP:20260425T090655 CREATED:20230301T172203Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230301T172203Z UID:2443-1683158400-1683244799@www.orashrae.org SUMMARY:Past Presidents Night DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.orashrae.org/event/past-presidents-night/ LOCATION:OR END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230504 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230505 DTSTAMP:20260425T090655 CREATED:20230301T172040Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230301T172138Z UID:2440-1683158400-1683244799@www.orashrae.org SUMMARY:May 2023 Chapter Meeting - Thermal Energy Storage in the Era of Sustainability DESCRIPTION:Time and Location TBD \nPast Presidents Night URL:https://www.orashrae.org/event/may-2023-chapter-meeting-thermal-energy-storage-in-the-era-of-sustainability/ LOCATION:OR CATEGORIES:Monthly Meetings END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230414T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230414T213000 DTSTAMP:20260425T090655 CREATED:20230330T193720Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230330T193720Z UID:2446-1681491600-1681507800@www.orashrae.org SUMMARY:YEA Event - Liquid Cooling: Why it’s Making Such a Splash in Data Centers DESCRIPTION:As the server power density in data centers goes ever higher\, the demand for more effective server rack cooling goes up too. Liquid cooling appears to be a very viable solution. Here’s your chance to learn all about why liquid cooling works so well … and watch some soccer too! \nVertiv will provide a pre-match presentation at Providence Park. Your electronic game ticket will allow you in starting at 5pm. The liquid cooling presentation will follow at 5:30pm in the Community Room.

According to Omdia’s 2022 Data Center Thermal Management Market Analysis\, the liquid cooling market will top $3B by 2026\, with a 50% compound annual growth rate between now and then. Currently\, air-cooling effectively supports rack capacities up to 20kW. Newer generation CPUs and GPUs designed for high-performance compute and AI applications are pushing rack loads above 50kW. Liquid cooling leverages higher thermal transfer properties to support efficient and cost-effective cooling of these high-density racks. \nThere is a wide array of resources to help you understand the challenges\, opportunities\, and technical requirements that liquid cooling presents including white papers by the ASHARE TC9.9 Committee. This presentation is just one of those resources to help you decide how to apply and scale liquid cooling in the data centers of today and tomorrow. \nPresented by Kevin Gray \nRegister here URL:https://www.orashrae.org/event/april-2023-chapter-meeting-liquid-cooling/ LOCATION:Shine Distillery\, 4232 N Williams Ave\, Portland\, OR\, 97217\, United States CATEGORIES:Monthly Meetings END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230308T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230308T183000 DTSTAMP:20260425T090655 CREATED:20230214T222056Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230301T171853Z UID:2434-1678293000-1678300200@www.orashrae.org SUMMARY:March 2023 Chapter Meeting - Future of Refrigerants DESCRIPTION:The Future of Refrigerants \nNew societal environmental demands to control climate change are driving the development of new regulatory policies to restrict and lower the direct GWP (global warming potential) impact of F-gases. The HVAC&R industry is currently being challenged to invest significant resources to understand the best refrigerants that meet the above requirements. However\, there are many uncertainties and challenges given the ever-changing global regulatory environment\, within regions\, country\, state\, and sometimes locally by city. \nSafe non-flammable low toxicity F-gases allowed for an exponential increase in the standard of living of society through increased food productivity\, reduction in heat related deaths\, increased worker productivity and migration of people to cities and to hotter climates. The orderly transition from CFCs to HCFCs and HFCs achieved a balance between the societal environmental demands for reduced ozone depletion while continuing to improve the standard of living in developing countries and minimize the societal safety (nonflammable refrigerants) impacts for everyone. \nToday designers are being asked to consider new lower direct GWP unsaturated hydrofluorocarbons (HFOs) refrigerants\, some of which are slightly flammable under certain conditions\, as well as revisiting the application of natural refrigerants\, like carbon dioxide\, ammonia\, hydrocarbons\, and water. \nThis presentation will provide an update on new lower GWP alternatives introduced into the marketplace and it will highlight some important considerations\, particularly flammability\, that engineers\, designers\, and building owners should keep in mind regarding next-generation refrigerants.
