2010 ASHRAE Handbook - Refrigeration (SI) - (includes CD in I-P and SI editions)
The 2010 ASHRAE Handbook: Refrigeration covers the refrigeration equipment and systems for applications other than human comfort. This book includes information on cooling, freezing, and storing food; industrial applications of refrigeration; and low-temperature refrigeration. Primarily a reference for the practicing engineer, this volume is also useful for anyone involved in cooling and storage of food products. An accompanying CD-ROM (also available for purchase separately) contains all the volumes chapters in both I-P and SI units. This edition includes two new chapters:Chapter 3, Carbon Dioxide Refrigeration Systems, describes the history of this natural refrigerant and why it is the subject of renewed interest today. The chapter contains discussion and diagrams on CO2 refrigerant applications, system design, equipment, safety, lubricants, commissioning, operation, and maintenance.Chapter 50, Terminology of Refrigeration, lists some of the common terms used in industrial refrigeration systems, particularly systems using ammonia as the refrigerant.CD: DualunitsKeywords: refrigeration, handbook, guide, basics, principles, design, best practices, hvac, hvacr, hvacr, halocarbon, ammonia, carbon dioxide, co2, overfeed, liquid overfeed, balancing, component balancing, chemistry, moisture, contaminants, dehydrating, desiccation, charging, testing, insulation, piping, control, refrigerant control, lubricants, secondary coolants, forced circulation, air coolers, retail, grocery store, supermarket, food store, food service, commercial refrigeration, household refrigerators, absorption equipment, thermal properties, food, cooling times, freezing times, commodity storage, microbiology, spoilage, refrigerated facility, refrigerated storage, cargo, transport, railroad transport refrigeration, refrigerated truck, marine refrigeration, shipboard refrigeration, airplane catering, airplane refrigeration, fruit, vegetables, flowers, industrial freezing, meat, beef, lamb, poultry, chicken, turkey, fish, milk, dairy, cheese, ice cream, eggs, apples, oranges, bananas, potatoes, tomatoes, beverages, beer, wine, processed food, precooked food, prepared food, bakery, bread, chocolate, candy, nuts, dried fruit, dried vegetables, ice manufacture, icemakers, ice rinks, ice skating, cooling concrete, cooling soil, chemical industry, cryogenics, ULT, ultralow-temperature refrigeration, biomedical, cryosurgery, terminology Citation: 2010 ASHRAE Handbook
