The book provides an up-to-date review of the design,
engineering and control of modern heating systems. Part A deals
with heat generating plant. While this concentrates on conventional
and condensing boilers, small-scale combined heat and power systems
and heat pumps are also discussed. Part B deals with heat emitters,
pipe circuits and variable-speed pumping, hot water service,
optimum plant size and the vital issues of plant and system
control, including sequence control of multiple boilers. Techniques
for managing the energy use and running costs of heating systems
are also discussed.
The authors have brought together over a half-century of combined experience covering all aspects of the building services Industry to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive text that is both technically rigorous yet highly practical. This makes the book equally relevant to the busy HVAC engineer looking for a handy practical reference, the student looking to build on their basic knowledge or the researcher interested in key issues of heating system design and performance.
