HVAC Systems Design Handbook, Fifth Edition
by: Roger W. Haines, Michael E. Myers
Abstract: A fully revised comprehensive guide to HVAC design. This all-in-one working tool for every phase of the HVAC design process has been totally rewritten and revised. HVAC Design Handbook, Fifth Edition provides new and seasoned engineers with the details, calculations, and code requirements for designing air-conditioning, heating and/or ventilation–HVAC–systems. This edition includes the latest developments and International Code Council (ICC) Mechanical Code requirements while preserving the fundamental concepts needed by industry professionals in light of the growing use of computers for both calculations and control methods.
