Principles of Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning 8th Edition 2017
Principles of Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning 8th Edition, a textbook based on the 2017 ASHRAE Handbook—Fundamentals, should provide an attractive text for air-conditioning courses at engineering colleges and technical institutes. The text has been developed to give broad and current coverage of the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning field when combined with the 2017 ASHRAE Handbook—Fundamentals.
The book should prove most suitable as a textbook and subsequent reference book for (a) under-graduate engineering courses in the general field of HVAC, (b) similar courses at technical institutes,(c) continuing education and refresher short courses for engineers, and (d) adult education courses for nonengineers. It contains more material than can normally be covered in a one-semester course. However, several different single-semester or shorter courses can be easily planned by merely elim-inating the chapters and/or parts that are least applicable to the objectives of the particular course. This text will also readily aid in self-instruction of the 2017 ASHRAE Handbook—Fundamentals by engineers wishing to develop their competence in the HVAC&R field.

On the National Academy of Engineering’s list of engineering achievements “that had the greatest impact on the quality of life in the 20th century,” air conditioning and refrigeration came in tenth, indicating the great significance of this field in the world. With many people in the United States spending nearly 90% of their time indoors, it is hardly surprising that providing a comfortable and healthy indoor environment is a major factor in life today.
