Summary

This book gives energy professionals all the information they need to optimize energy efficiency throughout their organizations.In this new third edition, nearly every chapter has been revised or totally rewritten. Boiler coverage has been revised to simplify procedures and calculations. Lighting coverage now includes the latest lighting and control technologies; electricity coverage now includes new induction motor management technologies. Other comprehensive revisions bring coverage fully up to date on HVAC system optimization, building envelope, natural gas purchasing, codes and standards, energy economic analysis, and program organization. Other coverage includes energy security and reliability; electric and gas rate schedules, indoor air quality, cogeneration, waste heat recovery, thermal energy storage, alternative energy, systems maintenance, and more.All managers and professionals responsible for energy usage in their organizations.

Turner presents a broad, modern overview of the information and methods needed to deal with energy management. The 22 chapters in this new edition (1st ed., 1982) cover such topics as energy; auditing; economic analysis; boilers and fired systems; cogeneration; waste heat recovery; heating, ventilating, and air conditioning; electric energy management; energy system maintenance; use of alternative energy; fleet management; codes and legislation; and natural gas purchasing. Unlike some handbooks, this one consists mainly of written explanations rather than a collection of extensive data. However, the appendixes include tables of thermodynamic data on common fluids along with reviews of thermal and electrical sciences. Authors are active professionals in the areas about which they write, the information included is current, and the writing is generally direct and easily understood. General; pre-professional; professional. L. A. Wenzel; Lehigh University
