Khazaii, Javad.
Energy-Efficient HVAC Design : An Essential Guide for Sustainable Building / by Javad Khazaii. - 1st ed. 2014. - Newyork Springer 2014 - 1 online resource (XV, 162 pages 45 illustrations, 39 illustrations in color.)
This book provides readers with essential knowledge enabling the successful design of today's new energy efficient HVAC systems. The author introduces important concepts such as Knowledge Categorization, Performance Based Design Standards, and Quantification of Uncertainty in Energy Modeling for Buildings. Pivotal topics that all HVAC and architectural engineers must master in order to navigate the green building renaissance are given focused attention, including the role of renewables, air quality, automatic controls, and thermal comfort. Relevant ASHRAE standards, as well as sustainability scoring systems such as BREEAM, HQE, LEED and CASBEE are explained and discussed. Armed with the material contained in this practical reference, students and practitioners alike will become more effective and prepared for engineering success.
