Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heating, ventilation and air conditioning is a technology that is concerned with indoor and vehicular environmental comfort. Its objective is to provide comfort and high indoor air quality. The technology develops on the principles of fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and heat transfer. Ventilation involves exchanging air in any space in order to control temperature as well as remove odors, dust, airborne bacteria, carbon dioxide, etc. It can be achieved mechanically by using an air handler, mechanical exhausts or ceiling fans, or naturally using operable windows, louvers or trickle vents. In central heating, water, steam or air is heated using a boiler, furnace or heat pump, and the resultant heat is transferred by the processes of convection, radiation or conduction to the living spaces in a house or building. Air conditioning and refrigeration involves cooling and humidity control through the removal of heat using heat transfer processes. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts about the technology of heating, ventilation and air conditioning. Such selected concepts that redefine the understanding of the crucial aspects of this technology including its design, analysis and control systems have been presented herein. It will serve as a valuable reference guide for architects, interior designers, professionals and students involved in this area of study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Heating and Ventilation: A d104-Book for Students, Engineers and Architects The aim of the author in preparing this book has been to bring together in logical order and in a small volume the necessary data from which to design the heating and ventilating systems of buildings. In doing this he has been guided by his own experience in the layout of such systems and by the previous works of many authors which he has used. He has consulted these works freely, as well as the valuable experimental data prepared by a number of the companies building apparatus for heating and ventilation. Where such work has been used credit has been given to the author or the company. These data, which in general are scattered among various books and pamphlets and must be used by the engineer in his work, have been brought together and placed in a logical position in a single book. The data are founded on careful experiment and may be used with confidence. In selecting these data, which are given in the forms of tables and curves, the endeavor has been made to include all that are necessary to solve any problem which may arise in connection with the warming of buildings or the supply and delivery of air. Many of the curves and tables are originally given, and in all cases these have been recomputed or redrawn for this book. Several methods given for the solution of problems are new. The book is intended for the use of upper-class men in technical schools, for engineers, architects, and superintendents of buildings. All phases of the work are illustrated by actual problems for which the slide rule has been used. The use of the slide rule is recommended and advised for these problems.

Download or read book Guide To Natural Ventilation in High Rise Office Buildings written by Antony Wood and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tall buildings are not the only solution for achieving sustainability through increased density in cities but, given the scale of current population shifts, the vertical city is increasingly being seen as the most viable solution for many urban centers. However, the full implications of concentrating more people on smaller plots of land by building vertically - whether for work, residential or leisure functions - needs to be better researched and understood. It is generally accepted that we need to reduce the energy equation – in both operating and embodied terms – of every component and system in the building as an essential element in making it more sustainable. Mechanical HVAC systems (Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning) in tall office buildings typically account for 30-40 percent of overall building energy consumption. The increased efficiency (or possibly even elimination) of these mechanical systems – through the provision of natural ventilation – could thus be argued to be the most important single step we could make in making tall buildings more sustainable. This guide sets out recommendations for every phase of the planning, construction and operation of natural ventilation systems in these buildings, including local climatic factors that need to be taken into account, how to plan for seasonal variations in weather, and the risks in adopting different implementation strategies. All of the recommendations are based on analysis of the research findings from richly-illustrated international case studies. Tried and tested solutions to real-life problems make this an essential guide for anyone working on the design and operation of tall buildings anywhere in the world. This is the first technical guide from the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat’s Tall Buildings & Sustainability Working Group looking in depth at a key element in the creation of tall buildings with a much-reduced environmental impact, while taking the industry closer to an appreciation of what constitutes a sustainable tall building, and what factors affect the sustainability threshold for tall.
