From the Back Cover
FULLY UPDATED - A QUALITATIVE, HIGHLY VISUAL APPROACH TO HEATING, COOLING, AND LIGHTING TECHNIQUES
Heating, Cooling, Lighting, Second Edition reflects the decision making process of architects involved in developing schematic designs. Based on a three-tier approach - load avoidance, optimum use of natural energies, and the selection of appropriate mechanical equipment - this book enables designers to provide all of a building's thermal and lighting needs while minimizing energy consumption and maximizing sustainability.
This practical guide features new chapters on the important emerging areas of sustainable "green" design and photovoltaics. It provides the detailed information an architect needs to make crucial decisions concerning thermal comfort, mechanical heating and cooling systems, climate, passive heating and cooling, shading, site planning, daylight and artificial lightning, and conservation. This fully updated new edition provides:
* Sun path diagrams and instructions for making a sun machine (helidon) and solar site evaluation tools
* Rules of thumb and simple sizing tables
* Numerous case studies and examples
* "Key Ideas" lists for quick reference and review
* More than 1000 helpful photographs and line drawings
Well organized and clearly written, Heating, Cooling, Lighting, Second Edition is an essential resource for today's architects and architectural students.
