Book Description
Covering one of the most important areas of mechanical engineering, this is
the first in-depth reference on the design, application, installation, and
maintenance of all types of HVAC pumps. Filled with case studies and
problem-solving sections, the book offers HVAC designers, engineers, and
technicians concrete methods for achieving efficient operation in pumps for HVAC
and water systems utilizing the latest digital electronic technologies. An ideal
companion to Karassik's Pump Handbook, this reference covers HVAC pumps and
their performance-the basics of HVAC water systems-pumps for open and closed
HVAC cooling systems-pumps for HVAC hot water systems-and HVAC pump
instrumentation and testing.

From the Back Cover
HVAC Pump Handbook A complete guide to the efficient design, application,
installation, and maintenance of all types of HVAC pumps. This practical
reference offers HVAC designers, engineers, and technicians the latest methods
for designing, installing, and operating both constant and variable speed pumps
for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning water systems. Addressing the
impact of digital electronics, computers, and systems analysis on the efficient
design of today's HVAC water systems, the book covers: HVAC pumps and their
performance... the basics of HVAC water systems... pumps for open and closed
HVAC cooling systems... pumps for HVAC hot water systems... HVAC pump
installation, operation, and maintenance... selecting, installing, and testing
HVAC centrifugal pumps... wire-to-wire efficiency of variable speed, HVAC
pumps... programming of HVAC pumps... equations for calculating water flow,
head, and energy consumption... HVAC pump instrumentation and testing... and
retrofitting existing HVAC water systems. The book includes complete chapters on
pumps for chillers, boilers, cooling towers, and ice and water storage systems
as well as many case studies and solved problems, making it the ideal reference
for anyone involved in the design or day-to-day operations of HVAC water
systems.

Book Description
Formerly titled Handbook of HVAC Design, this edition of this well-known
reference offers HVAC engineers, designers, and technicians full coverage of all
important aspects of the design, operation, and maintenance of heating,
ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Two-thirds of the handbook is
revised and rewritten, and it now features contributions from experts at top
companies such as York, Rockwell, Honeywell, and Sverdrup. The book will enable
users to produce very efficient and economical systems-select and install
today's most advanced equipment-maintain high system performance-comply with key
codes and standards-and understand the environmental impact of HVAC design.
From the Back Cover
Quick answers to day-to-day HVAC systems and components questions in one
comprehensive volume. With this authoritative reference at hand, engineers and
technician's will gain full knowledge of each component in today's complex
heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems. Completely revised and fully
updated, this second edition of a widely-used working tool offers: ANALYSES of
today's most efficient, most trouble-free systems; DETAILS to today's highly
advanced components; WAYS to achieve economy and efficiency in design; CLEAR
EXPLANATIONS of the environmental impact of HVAC design; INFORMATION on meeting
key codes and standards. Featuring contributions from the top companies in HVAC
technology-York, Allied Signal, Honeywell, and Sverdrup-the Handbook provides
expert guidance on: Indoor Air Quality; Condensate Control; Absorption versus
Mechanical chillers; Heat Pumps; Refrigerants. This detailed reference is the
ideal on-the-job tool that engineers, designers, plant managers, and technicians
will turn to again and again for reliable and timely information and advice on
HVAC systems and components.

This manual analyzes and compares available HVAC systems--from cooling
plants, boilers, and heating systems to distribution and control systems. It
explains what to look for in choosing HVAC equipment for new construction, and
replacing, repairing, and upgrading existing systems. System comparisons are
based on cost (installation, maintenance, and operation), flexibility, and
availability, among other factors. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.

Book Description
Demand for better quality and efficiency in air systems is making ATB
(testing, adjusting, and balancing) the hottest HVAC discipline. Sponsored by
the National Environmental Balancing Bureau, this revised manual covers the
latest TAB techniques, equations, and calculations. New chapters on system
balancing, controls, clean rooms, sound vibration, solutions to TAB problems,
and a model standard for cost estimating accompany updated sections on indoor
air quality, temperature control verification, and more.
From the Back Cover
Take Advantage of the Latest Guidance on the Hottest Area in HVAC! As health
problems related to poor indoor air quality become increasingly evident, demand
for better quality and efficiency in air systems is skyrocketing-making HVAC
testing, adjusting, and balancing (TAB) the fastest growing HVAC discipline.
Here is a practical, nuts-and-bolts manual devoted to this specialty, now
revised and updated with new information about such vital topics as: Indoor air
quality; Energy recovery systems; Fan surge; Duct leakage; System performance;
Temperature control verification; And more! You'll also find new chapters on
systems balancing, controls, clean rooms, sound vibration, and solutions to TAB
problems, as well as a chapter with a model standard for TAB cost-estimating.
Sponsored by the National Environmental Balancing Bureau, the book's clear,
step-by-step explanations will help you understand and meet requirements for
testing, measuring, adjusting, balancing, troubleshooting, and cost-estimating
TAB function for tall buildings, restaurants, hospitals, and other institutional
settings.
