Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Air Conditioning Manual assists entry-level engineers in the design of air-conditioning systems. It is also usable - in conjunction with fundamental HVAC&R resource material - as a senior- or graduate-level text for a university course in HVAC system design. The manual was written to fill the void between theory and practice - to bridge the gap between real-world design practices and the theoretical calculations and analytical procedures or on the design of components. This second edition represents an update and revision of the manual. It now features the use of SI units throughout, updated references and the editing of many illustrations. * Helps engineers quickly come up with a design solution to a required air conditioning system. * Includes issues from comfort to cooling load calculations. * New sections on "Green HVAC" systems deal with hot topic of sustainable buildings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a qualitative rather than a quantitative approach, presents detailed information based on concepts, rules, guidelines, intuition, and experience for architects in the areas of heating, cooling, and lighting at the schematic design stage. The data explored supports a three-tiered approach--load avoidance, using natural energy sources, and mechanical equipment. Among the topics covered are shading, thermal envelope, passive heating and cooling, electric lighting, and HVAC. Case studies illustrate how certain buildings use techniques at all three tiers for heating, cooling, and lighting. An appendix lists some of the more appropriate computer programs available to the architect for analysis at the schematic design stage.

Download or read book Thermally Active Surfaces in Architecture written by Kiel Moe and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2010-03-15 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Departing from the simple question Why do we heat and cool buildings with air?, this book focuses on the technique of thermally active surfaces. This technique uses water in building surfaces to heat and cool bodies - a method that is at once more efficient, comfortable, and healthy. This technique thus imbues the fabric of the building with a more poignant role: its structure is also its primary heating and cooling system. In doing so, this approach triggers a cascading set of possibilities for how well buildings are built, how well they perform, and how long they will last: pointing the way toward multiple forms of sustainability. The first section of the book contrasts the parallel histories of thermally active surfaces and air conditioning. These histories explain the material, social, marketing, and technical unfolding of building technology in the twentieth century as a means to explain why we build the way we do and why that will change in the new century. The next section of the book covers the physiological and thermodynamic basis of thermally active surfaces. This section is designed for engineers and architects to grasp the logic and advantages of this technique. This section also includes a chapter on the de-fragmentation of buildings and design practice that is inherent in building with thermally active surfaces. The final section covers a series of contemporary case studies that demonstrate the efficacy of this technique. The project list currently includes Kunsthaus in Bregenz by Peter Zumthor, Zollverein School of Management in Essen, Germany by SANAA, and Linked Hybrid in Beijing by Steven Holl, amongst others.

Book excerpt: Hotels rely on efficient HVAC systems to ensure the comfort of their guests. HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems are used to control the temperature, humidity, and air quality of a hotel's interior environment. By regulating a hotel's indoor environment, HVAC systems help to create a more comfortable and healthy atmosphere for guests. Hotels typically use a combination of heating and cooling systems to maintain the desired temperature in each room. Heating systems like furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps are used to warm the air during colder months, while cooling systems like air conditioners and evaporative coolers are used to cool the air in warmer months. In addition, ventilation systems are used to bring in fresh outdoor air and filter out airborne pollutants. HVAC systems in hotels must be designed and maintained to meet the specific needs of the hotel. Factors such as the size of the hotel, the number of rooms, and the climate of the local area all need to be taken into account when designing an HVAC system. It is also important to ensure that the HVAC system is energy-efficient, as this can help reduce both energy costs and the hotel's environmental impact. Hotels also rely on HVAC systems to filter out airborne pollutants, such as dust, pollen, and other allergens. Air filters and purifiers help to clean the air of these particles, helping to reduce the risk of guests developing allergies or other respiratory illnesses. Finally, the HVAC system in a hotel plays an important role in controlling humidity levels. Low humidity levels can cause guests to feel uncomfortable or even sick, while high humidity levels can lead to mold and mildew growth. By regulating humidity levels, HVAC systems help to create a more comfortable and healthy environment for guests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable environmental control through building design Heating, Cooling, and Lighting is the industry standard text on environmental control systems with the emphasis on sustainable design. By detailing the many factors that contribute to the comfort in a building, this book helps architects minimize mechanical systems and energy usage over the life of the building by siting, building design, and landscaping to maximize natural heating, cooling, and lighting. This new fourth edition includes new information on integrated design strategies and designing for the Tropics. Resources include helpful case studies, checklists, diagrams, and a companion website featuring additional cases, an image bank, and instructor materials. Designing buildings that require less energy to heat, cool, and light means allowing the natural energy of the sun and wind to reduce the burden on the mechanical and electrical systems. Basic design decisions regarding size, orientation, and form have a great impact on the sustainability, cost, and comfort of a building. Heating, Cooling, and Lighting provides detailed guidance for each phase of a design project. Readers will: Understand the concept of sustainability as applied to energy sources Review the basic principles of thermal comfort, and the critical role of climate Learn the fundamentals of solar responsive design, including active and passive solar systems as well as photovoltaics Discover how siting, architectural design, and landscaping can reduce the requirements for mechanical and electrical systems In sustainable design, mechanical, and electrical systems should be used to only accomplish what the architect could not by the design of the building itself. With this in mind, designers require a comprehensive understanding of both the properties of energy and the human factors involved in thermal comfort. Heating, Cooling, and Lighting is the complete, industry-leading resource for designers interested in sustainable environmental control.
