HVAC Fundamentals

This master work covers the range of HVAC systems used in today's facilities. Comprehensive in scope, it provides readers with a clear understanding of how HVAC systems operate and how to select the right system and components to achieve optimum performance and efficiency for a particular application. They will learn the specific ways in which each system, subsystem or component contributes to the desired indoor environment and what factors have an impact on energy conservation, indoor air quality and cost. Compressors, water chillers, fans and fan drives, air distribution and variable air volume, pumps and water distribution, controls, heat recovery, and energy conservation strategies are examined in detail.Samuel C.
