商品簡介
This reference handbook for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) practitioners, including engineers, architects, contractors, and plant engineers presents comprehensive technical information in modular form. Vedavarz (Deputy Director of Engineering, Office of Capital Projects, New York City Housing Authority), Kumar (mechanical engineering, Polytechnic U. in Brooklyn, NY), and Hussain (a mechanical design engineer in New York City's Citywide Administrative Services) have updated the material and introduced new topics, as well as examples using software solution tools that have been added alongside traditional solutions using formula from the older editions. Twenty chapters cover fundamentals; psychrometry; air conditioning processes; indoor air quality and ventilation; load estimating fundamentals; heating load calculations; duct design; pipe sizing; hydronic heating and cooling systems; energy calculation; combustion; air conditioning systems; air handling and ventilation; steam heating design; noise and vibration control; motors and starters; design procedure, abbreviations, and symbols; climatic design information; and units and conversions. The CD-ROMs contain a demonstration version of the Trace 700 Load 6.0, building load and energy analysis software from Trane, an HVAC specializing subsidiary of American Standard Companies, as well as ITT Corporation's ESP Plus equipment selection software.
