Practical guidance for designing and operating heating and ventilation systems
This concise reference translates decades of classroom lectures into actionable insights for engineers, designers, and tradespeople. It covers the fundamentals of heat, the performance of steam and hot-water systems, and the practical details that affect real-world installations. Readers will gain a clear sense of how to evaluate losses, size equipment, and choose piping layouts that accommodate expansion, maintenance, and building safety.
Drawing on extensive illustrations and worked examples, the book offers step-by-step treatment of central heating, hot water circulation, and air-handling strategies. It discusses how to balance efficiency, reliability, and cost, with attention to practical constraints in residences, offices, factories, and public buildings. You’ll find guidance on radiator connections, pipe supports, expansion, and the role of controls in maintaining comfortable, healthy indoor environments. The text also highlights humidity management, air quality considerations, and the integration of ventilation with heating.What you’ll experience
