Title
2005 ASHRAE Handbook Fundamentals I-P Edition
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc.
Publication Date:
Jan 1, 2005
Scope:
Preface
The 2005 ASHRAE Handbook - Fundamentals covers basic principles and
data used in the HVAC&R
industry. Research sponsored by ASHRAE and others continues to
generate new information to support
the HVAC&R technology that has improved the quality of life
worldwide. The ASHRAE Technical
Committees that prepare these chapters strive not only to provide new
information, but also to
clarify existing information, delete obsolete materials, and
reorganize chapters to make the
Handbook more understandable and easier to use.
This edition includes a new chapter (26), Insulation for Mechanical
Systems, and an accompanying
CD-ROM containing not only all the chapters in both I-P and SI units,
but also the vastly expanded
and revised climatic design data described in Chapter 28.
Some of the major revisions and additions are as follows:
• Chapter 2, Fluid Flow, has new examples on calculating pressure
loss, flow, and pipe sizes,
and new text on port-shape friction factors in laminar flow.
• Chapter 3, Heat Transfer, contains updated convection
correlations; more information on
enhanced heat transfer, radiation, heat exchangers, conduction shape
factors, and transient
conduction; a new section on plate heat exchangers; and several new
examples.
• Chapter 4, Two-Phase Flow, has new information on boiling and
pressure drop in plate heat
exchangers, revised equations for boiling heat transfer and
forced-convection evaporation in tubes,
and a rewritten section on pressure drop correlations.
• Chapter 7, Sound and Vibration, contains expanded and clarified
discussions on key concepts
and methods throughout, and updates for research and standards.
• Chapter 12, Air Contaminants, contains a rewritten section on
bioaerosols, added text on
mold, and updated tables.
• Chapter 14, Measurement and Instruments, has a new section on
optical pyrometry, added text
on infrared radiation thermometers, thermal anemometers, and air
infiltration measurement with
tracer gases, as well as clarified guidance on measuring flow in
ducts.
• Chapter 20, Thermophysical Properties of Refrigerants, has
newly reconciled reference states
for tables and diagrams, plus diagrams for R-143a, R-245fa, R-410A,
and R-507A.
• Chapter 25, Thermal and Water Vapor Transmission Data, contains
a new table relating water
vapor transmission and relative humidity for selected materials.
• Chapter 26, Insulation for Mechanical Systems, a new chapter,
discusses thermal and
acoustical insulation for mechanical systems in residential,
commercial, and industrial facilities,
including design, materials, systems, and installation for pipes,
tanks, equipment, and ducts.
• Chapter 27, Ventilation and Infiltration, updated to reflect
ASHRAE Standards 62.1 and 62.2,
has new sections on the shelter-in-place strategy and safe havens from
outdoor air quality hazards.
• Chapter 28, Climatic Design Information, extensively revised,
has expanded table data for
each of the 4422 stations listed (USA/Canada/world; on the CD-ROM
accompanying this book), more
than three times as many stations as in the 2001 edition.
• Chapter 29, Residential Cooling and Heating Load Calculations,
completely rewritten,
presents the Residential Load Factor (RLF) method, a simplified
technique suitable for manual
calculations, derived from the Heat Balance (HB) method. A detailed
example is provided.
• Chapter 30, Nonresidential Cooling and Heating Load
Calculations, rewritten, has a new,
extensively detailed example demonstrating the Radiant Time Series
(RTS) method for a realistic
office building, including floor plans and details.
• Chapter 32, Energy Estimating and Modeling Methods, includes
new information on boilers,
data-driven models, combustion chambers, heat exchangers, and system
controls, and a new section on
model validation and testing.
• Chapter 33, Space Air Diffusion, has a rewritten, expanded
section on displacement
ventilation.
• Chapter 34, Indoor Environmental Modeling, rewritten, retitled,
and significantly expanded,
now covers multizone network airflow and contaminant transport
modeling as well as HVAC
computational fluid dynamics.
• Chapter 35, Duct Design, includes new guidance on flexible duct
losses, balancing dampers,
and louvers.
• Chapter 36, Pipe Sizing, has new text and tables on losses for
ells, reducers, expansions,
and tees, and the interactions between fittings.
This volume is published, both as a bound print volume and in
electronic format on a CD-ROM, in two
editions: one using inch-pound (I-P) units of measurement, the other
using the International System
of Units (SI).

this volume. Corrections for
this volume will be listed in subsequent volumes and on the ASHRAE Web
site.
