Air Conditioning System Design Manual, Second Edition (Ashrae Special Publications)

The Air Conditioning Manual was written to assist entry-level engineers in the design of air-conditioning systems. It is also suable -- in conjuction with fundamental HVAC&R resourcee material -- as a senior- or graduate-level text for a university course in HVAC system design. The manual was written to fill the void between theory and practice -- to bridge the gap between real-world design practices and the theoretical caluclations and analytical procedures or on the design of components.

* Helps engineers quickly come up with a design solution to a required air conditioning system.
* Includes issues from comfort to cooling load calculations.
* New sections on "Green HVAC" systems deal with hot topic of sustainable buildings.
