Book Description:
Air Conditioning and Refrigeration produces an effectively controlled indoor environment with an acceptable indoor air quality for health, comfort, and manufacturing processing. The goal of the Handbook Air conditioning and Refrigeration 2/e is to provide useful, practical and updated technical reference for the design, selections, and operation of air conditioning and refrigeration system. Because of the trend to use computer programs to calculate space loads, to estimate annual energy, and to perform duct and piping work design, the Handbook of Air and Refrigeration has become dated. In the first edition the Handbook provided data and charts for and calculations. Now most of this work is done on computer. Therefore the author is proposing to change the handbook so that it is directed at the computer user. He, also, intends to cover all the technological changes since the last edition in this rapidly changing field.
