Questions
Will I learn to use the p-h and psychrometric charts?
Yes. Both charts are used in class to solve cycle and air conditioning problems.
Is this useful for AC servicing jobs?
Yes. Components, refrigerants and AC systems are explained with practical examples.
Is this course based on the BTEUP syllabus?
Yes. The units follow the BTEUP (Board of Technical Education, Uttar Pradesh) diploma syllabus. If your polytechnic follows a different board or a revised scheme, the centre teaches your own syllabus.
