Heating and Cooling of Buildings

Design for Efficiency, Revised Second Edition

By: Jan F. Kreider,Peter S. Curtiss,Ari Rabl

The art and the science of building systems design evolve continuously as designers, practitioners, and researchers all endeavor to improve the performance of buildings and the comfort and productivity of their occupants. Retaining coverage from the original second edition while updating the information in electronic form, Heating and Cooling of Buildings: Design for Efficiency, Revised Second Edition presents the technical basis for designing the lighting and mechanical systems of buildings. Along with numerous homework problems, the revised second edition 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 (HCB) software program 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. Ancillary information is available on the book’s website www.hcbcentral.com From materials to computers, this edition explores the latest technologies exerting a profound effect on the design and operation of buildings. Emphasizing design optimization and critical thinking, the book continues to be the ultimate resource for understanding energy use in buildings.

Heating and Cooling of Buildings

Principles and Practice of Energy Efficient Design, Third Edition

By: T. Reddy,Jan F. Kreider,Peter S. Curtiss,Ari Rabl

Follows a strict pedagogical structure and content sequence tested over fifteen years of teaching. Starts by coverings the most up-to-date calculation procedures and standards from ASHRAE and other organizations relevant to building loads, then provides a detailed treatment of primary, traditional secondary and hybrid/emerging secondary equipment and systems. Addresses contemporary issues such as emerging green building design technologies, alternative energy sources, and uncertainties in simulation. Discusses drivers for efficiency such as codes and standards, building rating systems, design guides, and the green building movement Offers a complete Solutions Manual, chapter outcomes, free HCB software download along with associated resources, and detailed and tested slides of individual chapters for classroom projection for qualified instructors adopting the text, with access through author's website

Immune Functions of the Vessel Wall

By: Goran K Hansson,Peter Libby

Synthesizes recent advances in immunology and vascular biology to examine interactions between the endothelium and the immune response system and the immunopathology involved in various forms of vascular damage, particularly atherosclerosis. Coverage includes the endothelium as an antigen presenting cell, chemokines in vascular pathophysiology, humoral immunity and vascular injury in xenograft rejection, and autoimmunity to oxidized lipoproteins. For scientists and physicians interested in immunology, inflammation, and cardiovascular disease states. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

HVAC Instant Answers

By: Peter Curtiss,Newton Breth

The book will be published in a flexible, 5" x 8" format filled with schematic system layouts and graphics showing how commonly measured data can be used to identify operating problems with the HVAC equipment. It is expected that about one quarter to one third of the book will be line drawing system schematics, graphics showing expected data in fault and no-fault states, and a few photographs of systems (used only when such a figure is required for clarifying points made in the text.)
