eBook Description

This thoroughly revised book will provide the reader with an understanding of the principles and practices of testing and balancing (TAB) heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) air and water systems. It is for anyone interested in testing and balancing. For the novice and the experienced testing and balancing technician, it is a field reference book of procedures, equations, and information tables. For those interested in getting into TAB or who are new to the HVAC industry, it is a text for learning more about HVAC systems and testing and balancing. For the mechanical engineer, building owner, facility manager, commissioning agency or energy manager, this book can be used for teaching TAB, writing more effective specifications, and learning about TAB and how it interacts with system commissioning, indoor air quality and energy management. It is the intent of this book to improve the communications between owners, mechanical engineers, designers, vendors, contractors, TAB engineers, supervisors, and technicians to ensure that HVAC systems are being thoroughly tested and balanced.

This book is used in test and balance self-study courses, in-house training programs, seminars, and other training formats as preparation for TAB certification, and as a text in colleges and technical schools. The sixth edition has general and specific testing and balancing procedures for constant air volume systems, variable air volume systems, return air and exhaust air systems, positive and negative pressure conditioned spaces, and fans and fan performance in Chapters 1 through 9. Chapters 10–12 cover testing and balancing fume hood systems, and cleanrooms and commissioning HVAC systems. Chapters 13 and 14 provide information on water systems and centrifugal pumps including water balancing procedures using flow meters, system components and temperatures, and water pumps and pump performance. Chapter 15 reviews analog and digital controls. Chapters 16–20 cover terminology for fluid flow, psychrometrics, refrigeration¸ air distribution, water distribution, fans and pumps, motors, electrical, and instrument usage and care. Chapters 21 and 22 are equations and tables.

Weirdest armhole proportions I've seen
Size: X-Large, Color: Navy/Sage Green, Size: X-Large, Color: Navy/Sage Green
There are a few nice things about these tanks -- I like the colors, there's a little extra length in the back, and the fabric is a thick quality fabric. I appreciate the fact they're 100% cotton and was looking forward to wearing these. Overall, the tanks fit as I would expect for the size. But what in the world is up with the dimensions for the arm holes? There is a significant amount of extra fabric that bunches up and looks awful (see photos) I've never had this happen on a tank top before, even one that's a size up. It's really strange and I'm disappointed that I can't keep these because of it.

Comfortable Sleep Tanks, Weird Fit for Daytime
Size: Small, Color: Hot Pink/Oatmeal Heather
These 100% cotton tanks are perfect tops to wear at home: soft, breathable, and great for sleeping or lounging. The pink is extremely bright (borderline highlighter), while the beige is a much more wearable, calm color. The fit is a little odd on me—something about the cut just doesn’t sit right—so I wouldn’t wear them out of the house, but as a comfy bedtime set of two, they do the job.

Very reasonable price for the quality
Size: Small, Color: Navy/Sage Green
The tank tops are well-made with quality fabric. I like the subdued colors, too. Unfortunately the tank tops don't fit me well.

Classy cut
Size: Large, Color: Black
Good quality tank. Just what I was looking for. Not too short for my long torso. I’m 165 lbs and the large was just right. I’m over 60 and I don’t prefer a tight fitting tank top any more. I want a skim the body look with a bit more arm coverage. These look classy. I got the black and will order the bone color next. I will hang to dry but some reviews say it doesn’t shrink.

Super baggy
Size: Medium, Color: White
I’m Taking away one star for the bagginess and length of the top It’s super long I kept the top because the fabric is super soft, drapes nicely in the front, and can be used to wear under a blazer or on a beach Fabric has been washed and dried several times and has held up nicely Some minor wrinkles
