Air Conditioning Engineering Fifth Edition
Although the fundamentals of the subject have not altered since the publication of the Air Conditioning Engineering Fifth Edition there have been significant changes in the development and application of air conditioning. Among these are concerns about indoor air quality, revision of outside design data and the expression of cooling loads arising from solar radiation through glass by the CIBSE.
Air conditioning (of which refrigeration is an inseparable part) has its origins in the fundamental work on thermodynamics which was done by Boyle, Carnot and others in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, but air conditioning as a science applied to practical engineering owes much to the ideas and work of Carrier, in the United States of America, at the beginning of this century.

Full air conditioning implies the automatic control of an atmospheric environment either for the comfort of human beings or animals or for the proper performance of some industrial or scientific process. The adjective ‘full’ demands that the purity, movement, temperature and relative humidity of the air be controlled, within the limits imposed by the design specification.
