Description

John Wiley Heating Ventilating And Air Conditioning - Analysis And Design Seventh Edition by Hessam Taherian

Heating Ventilating and Air ConditioningThe authoritative resource providing coverage of all aspects of HVAC fully updated to align with the latest HVAC technologies and methodsNow in its Seventh Edition Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning has been fully updated to align with the latest technologies and industry developments while maintaining the balance of theoretical information with practical applications that has prepared many generations of students for their careers.As they work through the book students will become familiar with different types of heating and air conditioning systems and equipment understand processes and concepts involving moist atmospheric air learn how to provide comfort to occupants in controlled spaces and gain practice calculating probable heat loss/gain and energy requirements. A companion website includes additional multiple-choice questions tutorial videos showing problem-solving for R-value calculation and Excel spreadsheets that can be used for practice calculations.The Seventh Edition includes new coverage of ductless A/C systems heat exchangers and hybrid heat pumps geothermal heat pumps energy-efficient equipment and UV principles of air quality treatment of airborne viruses like COVID-19.Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning includes detailed coverage of topics such as Common HVAC units and dimensions fundamental physical concepts and system selection and arrangementTypes of all-air systems air-and-water systems all-water systems and decentralized cooling and heatingMoist air and the standard atmosphere fundamental parameters adiabatic saturation and wet bulb temperature and the psychrometric chartOutdoor and indoor design conditions transmission heat losses infiltration heat losses from air ducts auxiliary heat sources and intermittently heated structuresHeat gain cooling load and heat extraction rate and application of cooling load calculation proceduresSelection of pumps and fans and duct HVAC sizingHeating Ventilating and Air Conditioning helps prepare students for the industry by connecting the content to ASHRAE standards and by introducing coverage of software tools commonly used in HVAC design. The text is suitable for one- or two-semester HVAC courses taught at junior to graduate levels in various engineering departments.
