The term Air Handling System' refers to the equipment where air is conditioned to an acceptable level for distribution within the building. An air handling unit often abbreviated as AHU is a very important component of central-air-conditioning system. It is responsible for drawing return air from the indoor spaces, mixing it with outdoor air, conditioning it to the acceptable level for distribution within the building. The modular packaged equipment offered by various manufacturers is pretty standard. HVAC designers can simply spec the performance requirements and pick and choose from a wide array of standard building blocks to assemble a unit that meets their specific project needs. But large majority of air handlers are custom built or tailor made demanding HVAC designer to apply fundament psychrometrics processes to precisely estimate the capacity and airflow requirements, select the fan, coil and other auxiliaries and integrate these properly to the building control system. This 6-hr Quick Book outlines the key design considerations for sizing, selecting and estimating the capacity and airflow rate of air handling systems.At the conclusion of this quick book, the reader will be able to answer: * What is function of Air handling unit and what factors affect its sizing?* How are air-conditioning processes depicted on the psychrometric chart?* What is difference between room sensible and grand sensible heat factor?* How is airflow rate and the cooling coil load determined?* What are the five basic AHU arrangements?* What are the different types and applications of the fans used in air handling applications?* What are the different types of cooling and heating coils?* What are the different types and applications of the filters used in air handling applications?* What are the different types of humidifiers and dehumidifiers?* What are the different types of control valves and their application?* How are the air handling unit controlled and the sequence of operation for critical facility?* What are the energy conservation features in designing air handling systems?

Offres a comprehensive guide for designing an effective system for heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and evaporative cooling; in essence, it is an effective practical bridge between theory and actual practices in the field. The book brings together relevant data on the theory, the building envelope and combines it with equipment selection, specific building application, and practical system design data.

As Humans’ need for comfort living takes priority, Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning systems (HVAC)would assume more importance and priority – The number and percentage of people opting, creating and living in conditioned spaces might also serve as an index for living standards. In my search for understanding the different types of styles and configurations of HVAC systems - I finally realized that I could understand the different executions only if I work with a HVAC company. This somehow materialized – I started working for Superior air- a HVAC subcontractor engaged in providing, installing HVAC systems in San Diego City in California. My learning started with studying their installations, visiting job sites and looking at construction and approved drawings. I also had the opportunity to interact with construction supervisors, experts in HVAC systems, and construction workers. The installations I visited are mostly in commercial / office buildings and involved almost all the types mentioned in the book. To facilitate ease of understanding, the book includes maximum possible images of the systems/ lay outs. I will be extremely thankful to the readers if they could give me feedback comments and any other information/images that can be included for regular updates.

Indoor Air Quality and HVAC Systems is a practical guide for understanding the relationship between the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of HVAC systems and achieving indoor air quality (IAQ). The book describes the individual components of HVAC systems and the role each plays in maintaining good indoor air quality. It also identifies the techniques available for evaluating the performance characteristics of ventilation systems (including the use of carbon dioxide monitors and sulfur hexafluoride tracer testing equipment). Other topics discussed include the determination of pathways of air movement through buildings and understanding pressure relationships, ventilation effectiveness, and efficiency. The book concludes with an overview of sources of air contaminants to be concerned about when performing an IAQ evaluation. Indoor Air Quality and HVAC Systems provides critical information for industrial hygienists, HVAC contractors and engineers, and building owners and managers.

There are two reasons why we have a new edition every four or five years. The first is that technology changes. Chapter 10, on computer-based con trols, has had to be almost completely rewritten. Fundamentals don't change, but the tools available to us do change. Evaluation and proper use of those tools makes it even more imperative that we understand fundamentals. Many of our control problems stem from the use of new devices as a solution to problems that are, in fact, control design errors. New gadgets, for example, Direct Digital Controls (DDC), will not solve basic problems and may even compound them. None-the-Iess, you will find an extensive discussion of DDC because I think it is the probable "future" in HVAC control. But it must be applied with a good understanding of fundamentals. The second reason is that I keep learning and need to pass on my new and improved understanding to my readers. Thus you will find a number of small but important revisions, a dissertation on control "modes," and a much more detailed discussion of how electronic control devices work. There are a few places where I have corrected what I now perceive to be errors. I apologize for these. I have been much encouraged by the acceptance of this book in the past, and I hope that this new edition will be helpful. Thank you for your support.
