This publication was prepared in cooperation with TC 7.1, Integrated Building Design. Kavanaugh American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc. HVAC Simplified.indd 1 5:38:29 PM HVAC Simplified Stephen P. Kavanaugh Kavanaugh ISBN 978-1-93 Product code: 90439 02/12 Errata noted in the list dated have been corrected. Kavanaugh, PhD, Fellow ASHRAE, is a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Alabama where he teaches HVAC. The author has assembled information from ASHRAE Handbooks, ASHRAE standards, and manufacturers’ data and presents design procedures commonly used by professional engineers, including an overview of ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2004 mandates for ventilation air system design. Topics include equipment selection and specification, comfort and indoor air quality, building assemblies, heating and cooling loads, electrical and control systems, and design of air distribution and water distribution systems. HVAC Simplified This text on the design of heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems emphasizes energy efficiency and economic value. The intended audience for this book includes novice HVAC engineers who did not complete an undergraduate HVAC course, engineers moving into HVAC from other fields, undergraduate engineering students in design-oriented curriculums, and nonengineering professionals with strong building-related experience. The CD is Windows and Mac compatible and is Single User only. These programs include psychrometric analysis, equipment selection, heating and cooling load calculation, an electronic “ductulator,” piping system design, a ductwork cost calculator, and programs to evaluate building system demand and energy efficiency. This book includes a CD containing a suite of complementary spreadsheet programs that incorporate design and computation procedures from the text.
