Details: The ultimate hands-on guide to modern HVAC design — packed with real-world examples, diagrams, and step-by-step workflows.
Whether you’re an engineering student, HVAC designer, or field technician, this book walks you through how to design, size, and layout complete heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems using practical, example-based methods.
Each chapter presents realistic system designs drawn from actual engineering practice — including small offices, retail stores, residential buildings, warehouses, schools, and industrial facilities. You’ll learn not just how to calculate and select equipment, but how to document, coordinate, and verify every part of your design.
