Description
For freshman/sophomore-level courses in Lighting Design, Building Systems Design, and Commercial Building Design. This practical applications workbook - and its accompanying design software - helps students develop specific HVAC system design habits and methods. It provides three sample problems (and solutions) for each new concept discussed - the first is worked out entirely, the second is a guided practice, and the third is unsolved. An introduction to HVAC, standard design procedures, and application problems are included.
