Heating and cooling of buildings: design for efficiency.

Auteurs : KREIDER J. F., CURTISS P. S., RABL A.

Type de monographie : Ouvrage

Résumé

From materials to computers, this revised second edition explores the latest technologies exerting a profound effect on the design and operation of buildings. It offers a full chapter on economic analysis and optimization, new heating and cooling load procedures and databases, and simplified procedures for ground coupled heat transfer calculations.
The accompanying CD-ROM contains an updated version of the Heating and Cooling of Buildings software programme as well as electronic appendices that include over 1,000 tables in HTML format that can be searched by major categories, a table list, or an index of topics.
Extract from the table of contents: elements of heat transfer for buildings (conduction, convection, radiation, evaporation and moisture transfer); review of thermodynamic processes in buildings (thermodynamic properties; first law of thermodynamics; second law of thermodynamics and thermodynamic cycles); psychrometrics, comfort, and health; fundamentals of fluid mechanics in building systems; solar radiation and windows; heating and cooling loads; annual energy consumption and special topics; heat generation and transfer equipment; cooling equipment (Rankine refrigeration cycle; absorption cycle; mechanical cooling equipment-chillers); secondary systems for heating and cooling; heating; ventilating, and air-conditioning control systems; lighting; design for efficiency; costs (comparing present and future costs; life cycle cost; economic evaluation criteria; complication of the decision process; cost estimation).
