This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Load Calculation Applications Manual builds upon three previous ASHRAE publications that focus on the calculation of cooling and heating loads for commercial buildings. Whether you are a new engineer who is learning how to do load calculations or a veteran who wishes to learn the radiant time series (RTS) method, this book is a must-have resource.Outlined in the manual are two methods for calculating cooling loads in nonresidential buildings"the heat balance (HB) method and the RTS method. Both methods were first fully presented for use in design load calculations in the predecessor to this volume, Cooling and Heating Load Calculation Principles. But much has changed since the book was first published in 1998. The Load Calculation Applications Manual steps in where the last book left off to provide you with the latest information regarding load calculations. In the book's early chapters, an overview of the heat transfer processes present in buildings and a brief discussion of how they are analyzed together in order to determine the cooling load are provided. Later chapters focus on the theory and application of the RTS method, systems and psychrometrics, heating load calculations, and the HB method and its implementation.The accompanying CD contains Microsoft Excel spreadsheets that compute cooling loads using the RTS method. These spreadsheets calculate the solar irradiation, conduction time factor series, and radiant time factors utilized by the method. Plus, you can adapt the spreadsheets to compute cooling loads for a wide range of buildings.

This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heating and cooling load calculations are carried out to estimate the required capacity of heating and cooling systems, which can maintain the required conditions in the conditioned space. To estimate the required cooling or heating capacities, one has to have information regarding the design indoor and outdoor conditions, specifications of the building, specifications of the conditioned space (such as the occupancy, activity level, various appliances and equipment used etc.) and any special requirements of the particular application. For comfort applications, the required indoor conditions are fixed by the criterion of thermal comfort, while for industrial or commercial applications the required indoor conditions are fixed by the particular processes being performed or the products being stored. Generally, heating and cooling load calculations involve a systematic and stepwise procedure, which account for all the building energy flows. In practice, a variety of methods ranging from simple rules-of-thumb to complex transfer function methods are used to arrive at the building loads. This short quick book provides a procedure for preparing a manual calculation for cooling load using CLTD/CLF method suggested by ASHRAE and includes two detailed examples. For more advanced methods such as TFM, the reader should refer to ASHRAE and other handbooks.Learning ObjectiveAt the end of this course, the student should be able to: 1.

Download or read book Piping and Pipeline Calculations Manual written by Philip Ellenberger and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-01-22 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Piping and Pipeline Calculations Manual, Second Edition provides engineers and designers with a quick reference guide to calculations, codes, and standards applicable to piping systems. The book considers in one handy reference the multitude of pipes, flanges, supports, gaskets, bolts, valves, strainers, flexibles, and expansion joints that make up these often complex systems. It uses hundreds of calculations and examples based on the author's 40 years of experiences as both an engineer and instructor. Each example demonstrates how the code and standard has been correctly and incorrectly applied. Aside from advising on the intent of codes and standards, the book provides advice on compliance. Readers will come away with a clear understanding of how piping systems fail and what the code requires the designer, manufacturer, fabricator, supplier, erector, examiner, inspector, and owner to do to prevent such failures. The book enhances participants' understanding and application of the spirit of the code or standard and form a plan for compliance. The book covers American Water Works Association standards where they are applicable. - Updates to major codes and standards such as ASME B31.1 and B31.12 - New methods for calculating stress intensification factor (SIF) and seismic activities - Risk-based analysis based on API 579, and B31-G - Covers the Pipeline Safety Act and the creation of PhMSA
