Load Calculation Applications Manual

Load Calculation Applications ManualThere is no better text for students to learn load calculations. Providing the very latest information on the subject, this manual is perfect companion the 2009 ASHRAE Handbook--Fundamentals. Heat transfer processes present in buildings are discussed, as well as their co-analysis to determine the cooling load. The theory and application of the RTSM, systems and psychrometrics, heating load calculations, and the HBM and its implementation are covered as well. The enclosed CD contains sophisticated Microsoft Excel® spreadsheets for computing cooling loads for a variety of buildings using the RTSM.
