Using a minimum of mathematics, this book explores the fundamental concepts
of air conditioning and their application to systemsexplaining all concepts
in a clear, practical manner, and focusing on problems and examples typically
encountered on the job.This book contains the most recent and industry-wide
accepted information on load calculations, design data, equipment information,
and use of the Internet. Specific chapter topics cover the scope and uses of
air conditioning; physical principles; heating loads; furnaces and boilers;
hydronic piping systems and terminal units; cooling load calculations;
psychrometrics; fluid flow in piping and ducts; piping, valves, ducts, and
insulation; fans and air distribution devices; centrifugal pumps, expansion
tanks, and venting; air conditioning systems and equipment; refrigeration
systems and equipment; automatic controls; energy utilization and conservation;
