Marine HVAC Design will be independent from equipment makers and will cover everything from acting at an early project phase in close cooperation with an operator, up to 3D modelling to perform advanced detailed design.<\/p>\n
General manager of the new unit, St\u00e9phane Geslin, commented: \u201cOur track record clearly shows that we have the capabilities to perform high quality HVAC work.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor example, we are very proud of our work in the defence and security sector, including the Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carrier and type 26 Frigate for the UK Ministry of Defence. This experience also extends to the cruise sector; with our work on the QM2 and, more recently the Edge project.\u201d<\/p>\n
Improving efficiency<\/strong><\/p>\n Throughout the design and engineering process, Marine HVAC Design will be able to implement tools to increase the efficiency of a vessel\u2019s HVAC system. This includes the utilisation of various specialised software packages to accomplish tasks such as 2D and 3D visualisations, 3D coordination, outfitting and steel module design and the calculation of heat loads.<\/p>\n Finn Wollesen, managing director of Knud E. Hansen will be responsible for the commercial direction of Marine HVAC Design. He stressed that HVAC design assignments include newbuild vessels, vessel refits and conversions.<\/p>\n The unit will be headquartered at Knud E. Hansen\u2019s headquarters in Elsinore, Denmark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Knud E.
