Presentation Topic/Summary : High Performance Chilled Water Systems 

Chilled water systems have been used for more than 80 years. During that time, there has been a consistent effort by manufacturers and system designers to develop equipment, design strategies and control methods that result in the highest performing chilled water systems possible.

This presentation discusses system configurations, design parameters and system control techniques that can help owners and design teams reduce chilled water first costs, system operating costs and environmental impact.

Speaker: Mick Schwedler, PE, FASHRAE, LEED® AP BD+C



As 2021-2022 ASHRAE President, Mick encouraged 54,000 global Members to “Feed the Roots,” of our next generation, to fulfill ASHRAE’s Mission: “To serve humanity by advancing the arts and sciences of heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, refrigeration and their allied fields.” Mick is an ASHRAE Fellow, and recipient of ASHRAE’s Exceptional Service, Distinguished Service, and Standards Achievement Awards. During his 43+ year career at Trane, Mick provided system development, design, energy & emission reduction, and analysis support for applications such as data centers, semiconductor manufacture, campuses, pharmaceuticals, healthcare facilities and many others. As an applications engineer his areas of expertise included system optimization (in which he holds 7 U.S. patents), chilled water and geothermal heat pump system design, and electrification of heating in hydronic systems. He has provided technical systems education and inspirational messages to tens of thousands of building professionals through Trane’s Engineers Newsletter Live series, as well as in-person and virtual seminars throughout the world. Additionally, he authored many industry articles. Prior to his work with Trane, Mick received his MSME from the University of Wisconsin Solar Energy Laboratory and BSME from Northwestern University.

Additionally, Mick served the industry as:

• Chair of SSPC 90.1-2010, Advanced Energy Design Guide Steering Committee (AEDG) Chair, and on project committees for the 50% Hospital and Office Buildings AEDGs.
• Chair of the USGBC LEED Technical Committee, Member of the LEED Steering Committee and several USGBC technical and education groups.
• Mick also authored portions of the original ASHRAE Green Building Guide, and served on technical groups for the New Buildings Institute.
