Summary note
"Handbook of Energy Engineering is used extensively as a reference text in colleges and universities and to help prepare individuals for the Certified Energy Manager's examination." "Assuming no prior knowledge, the text proceeds from the basics and theory of energy utilization to specific state-of-the-art applications. An in-depth chapter on electrical system optimization provides a thorough examination of lighting systems, covering new lamps, ballasts, and controls. In the third edition a section has been added which covers the impact of new indoor air quality requirements on energy management strategies, as well as the implications of the reauthorized Clean Air Act for CFC alternative and recycling programs. Other chapters explore the latest developments and applications in thermal storage, cogeneration, controls, and computer technologies." "The written presentation is thoroughly illustrated with tables, graphs, diagrams, and sample problems with worked-out solutions. Intended for the practicing professional as well as the engineering student, this truly comprehensive reference is the most complete information source available for anyone involved in this dynamic and growing field."--BOOK JACKET.
