The ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals 2009 Edition will keep you up-to-date with the latest HVAC&R design changes
The 2009 ASHRAE Handbook-Fundamentals covers basic principles and data used in the HVAC&R industry. Updated with research sponsored by ASHRAE and others, this volume includes 1,000 pages and 39 chapters covering general engineering information, basic materials, climate data, load and energy calculations, duct and pipe design, and sustainability, plus reference tables for abbreviations and symbols, I-P to SI conversions, and physical properties of materials. The CD-ROM contains all the volume’s chapters in both I-P and SI units.
This edition includes a new chapter (35), Sustainability, which defines this concept for HVAC&R and describes the principles, design considerations, and detailed evaluations needed in designing sustainable HVAC&R systems. In this volume, chapter order and groupings have been revised for more logical flow and use.
