Design, install, and maintain HVAC pumps Filled with case studies and problem-solving sections, this reference offers HVAC engineers and technicians concrete methods for achieving efficient operation in utilizing the latest digital electronic technologies. Updated to include the latest information ranging from codes to the electronic evolution in HVAC pumping systems

Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics covers the proceedings of the First Australasian Conference. The book presents 29 papers that tackle several areas of concerns in fluid flow. The coverage of the text includes the behavioral aspects of fluid flow such as pressure drop and surge, gas pulsation, and cavitation. The book also discusses materials that cover methods in analyzing and estimating fluid flow variables, such as waterhammer analysis with nonlinear frictional resistance; estimation of hold-up at and below flooding; and analysis of shallow water wave patterns produced by a traveling model with straight and circular courses. The text will be of great use to researchers and professionals whose work concerns fluid flow.

AN ESSENTIAL DESKTOP SOURCEBOOK FOR ANYONE WHO WORKS WITH PUMPS AND PUMPING SYSTEMS ON A DAILY BASIS This much-needed reference provides comprehensive, detailed coverage of pump application and pumped water systems as well as a sound working overview of pump design. Written by a hands-on expert with almost fifty years in the field, Water Pumps and Pumping Systems thoroughly examines: * NFPA Fire Standards * Potable and wastewater pumps * Installation, operation, and retrofit * Piping system calculations and friction analysis * Piping materials * Fire, municipal, domestic, water treatment, and industrial applications * Tools of design and design analysis * Performance issues * And more This one-of-a-kind, clearly written sourcebook tackles the industry-specific issues and problems you face every day, including: * Misinformation about the proper operation of variable-speed pumps * Old rules that need to be replaced regarding pump speed and allowable velocities in piping * What field experience has taught the author about simple system head curves vs. complex system head areas With almost 200 illustrations and valuable material from the Hydraulic Institute, ANSI, and ASTM, Water Pumps and Pumping Systems offers specialized knowledge and priceless experience that cannot be found in any other water industry reference.

In the almost sixty years since the publication of the first edition of HVAC Engineer's Handbook, it has become widely known as a highly useful and definitive reference for HVAC engineers and technicians alike, and those working on domestic hot and cold water services, gas supply and steam services. The 11th edition continues in the tradition of previous editions, being easily transportable and therefore an integral part of the HVAC engineer or technician's daily tools. Newly updated data on natural ventilation, ventilation rates, free cooling and night-time cooling, make the 11th edition of the HVAC Engineer's Handbook a vital source of information. Fred Porges has worked in both the manufacturing and process industries, and became a partner in a building services consultancy in 1962. He has held senior positions with design contractors, and his experience covers every building service and type of building from schools to housing, factories to laboratories.
