hvac principles and applications manual: HVAC Cooling Load - Calculations and Principles A. Bhatia, 2014-10-16 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. Understand the basic terminology and definitions related to air conditioning load calculations 2. Explain the differences between heating and cooling load design considerations3.

hvac principles and applications manual: Industrial Hygiene Control of Airborne Chemical Hazards William Popendorf, 2006-05-15 Do you need guidelines for choosing a substitute organic solvent that is safer to use? Do you need an effective, cheap but perhaps temporary way to reduce exposures before you can convince your employer to spend money on a long-term or more reliable solution? Do you need information about local exhaust ventilation or personal protective equipment like respirators and gloves? Industrial Hygiene Control of Airborne Chemical Hazards provides the answers to these questions and more. Science-based and quantitative, the book introduces methods for controlling exposures in diverse settings, focusing squarely on airborne chemical hazards. It bridges the gap between existing knowledge of physical principles and their modern application with a wealth of recommendations, techniques, and tools accumulated by generations of IH practitioners to control chemical hazards. Provides a unique, comprehensive tool for facing the challenges of controlling chemical hazards in the workplace. Although William Popendorf has written the book at a fundamental level, he assumes the reader has some experience in science and math, as well as in manufacturing or other work settings with chemical hazards, but is inexperienced in the selection, design, implementation, or management of chemical exposure control systems. Where the book is quantitative, of course there are lots of formulae, but in general the author avoids vague notation and long derivations. |
hvac principles and applications manual: Advanced Anomaly Detection Technologies and Applications in Energy Systems Tinghui Ouyang, Yusen He, Xun Shen, Zhenhao Tang, Yahui Zhang, 2025-02-17 Anomaly detection is an important topic which has been well‐studied in diverse research areas and application domains. It generally involves detection of abnormal data, unhealthy status, fault diagnosis, and can be helpful to guarantee industrial systems’ stability, security, and economy. As development of intelligent industries and sensor systems grows, large amounts of data become easily available, and challenges arise in industrial systems’ anomaly detection. One typical case is the study within energy‐related systems, like thermal energy, renewable energy study (e.g., wind energy, photovoltaic), electric vehicles, and so on. These systems can involve various data formats and more complex data structures making anomaly data detection a challenge. Currently, under the development of deep learning and big data analytics, many promising results have been achieved in energy systems’ anomaly data detection. However, many challenging problems remain unsolved due to the complex nature of energy industries. New techniques and advanced engineering applications on anomaly detection in energy systems still appeal to a wide range of scholars and industries. |
