Control systems for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning
Hundreds of ideas for designing and controlling sophisticated heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are presented. Information is included on enthalpy control, energy conservation in HVAC systems, on solar heating, cooling and refrigeration systems, and on a self-draining water collector and heater. Computerized control systems and the economics of supervisory systems are discussed. Information is presented on computer system components, software, relevant terminology, and computerized security and fire reporting systems. Benefits of computer systems are explained, along with optimization techniques, data management, maintenance schedules, and energy consumption. A bibliography, glossaries of HVAC terminology, abbreviations, symbols, and a subject index are provided. (LCL)
