Kreider, Jan F.
Heating and cooling of buildings : design for efficiency / Jan F. Kreider and Ari Rabl - New York, NY : McGraw Hill Education, c1994 - xvii, 890 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.
Includes index.
Part 1 Fundamentals and review; review of thermodynamic processes in buildings; psychometrics, comfort and health; fundamentals of fluid mechanics in building systems.-- Part 2 The physical environment and heating and cooling loads; solar radiation and windows; heating and coooling loads; annual energy consumption and special topics.-- Part 3 Equipment and systems: heat generation and transfer equipment; cooling equipment; secondary systems for heating and cooling; heating, ventilation and air conditioning control systems; lighting.-- Part 4 Design for efficiency: economic analysis and optimization.
"With software by Peter Curtiss"--Cover. The book uses the most recent results of building research from all over the world in the attempt to cover the fundamentals of HVAC analysis and design while pointing the way toward solutions that achieve the required conditions of comfort and convenience for the lowest life cycle cost. The methods are those of the ASHRAE, with an explanation of underlying physical principles. Written in dual units USCS and SI. The software works in either set of units as specified by the user.
