HVAC Controls and Systems


Book Description

Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product. This book presents engineers with solutions to the problems found in control applications in the commercial HVAC buildings industry. Using their experience to take readers beyond textbook principles, the authors offer suggestions for troubleshooting not found in any other book. Divided into two sections, HVAC Controls and Systems covers all aspects of commercial controls, including pneumatic, electric, and electronic controls. The first section discusses the hardware of the controls industry: thermostats and humidistats, dampers and damper motors, automatic valves, transmitters, auxiliary devices, construction systems and devices, and electronic products. The second section covers applications of the hardware for air handling unit systems, terminal systems and units, primary systems, heat pump cycles, distribution systems, supervisory systems, maintenance and operations, and total facility approach.




Fundamentals of HVAC Control Systems


Book Description

A hard copy companion to the eLearning course that serves as a practical guide to the principles and characteristics of controls, and how to apply them in the use, selection, specification and design of controls systems.







HVAC Controls


Book Description

In the eight years since the publication of the first edition of this book, there have been quantum changes in the automated temperature control (ATC) industry due to the widespread & growing use of direct digital control (DDC) systems. The fully updated second edition fully addresses these technology changes, from equipment characteristics & operation, to troubleshooting & maintenance, to training of operating & maintenance personnel. The full range of topics pertinent to the effective operation of all types of HVAC control systems currently in use today are explored, including equipment-to-control interactions, control system set-up & functions, local loop to building automation system interfaces, performance prediction & assessment, operational parameters, & maintenance & testing.




Control Systems for Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning


Book Description

Control Systems for Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning, Sixth Edition is complete and covers both hardware control systems and modern control technology. The material is presented without bias and without prejudice toward particular hardware or software. Readers with an engineering degree will be reminded of the psychrometric processes associated with heating and air conditioning as they learn of the various controls schemes used in the variety of heating and air conditioning system types they will encountered in the field. Maintenance technicians will also find the book useful because it describes various control hardware and control strategies that were used in the past and are prevalent in most existing heating and air conditioning systems. Designers of new systems will find the fundamentals described in this book to be a useful starting point, and they will also benefit from descriptions of new digital technologies and energy management systems. This technology is found in modern building HVAC system designs.
