Handbook of Formulae, Equations & Conversion Factors for the Energy Professionals

THE LITTLE RED BOOK Information that until now could only be found in numerous volumes of text, is available in the quick reference manual The Little Red Book. The Handbook is specifically designed for the field requirements of the energy professional. A must for auditors, engineers, consultants, DSM planners, facility managers, architects and inspectors. The Little Red Book spans topics such as Electrical, Lighting, HVAC, Building envelope, Alternative energy, Climatological data, Fuels and Motors. The following are some examples of the wealth of data you'll find in the pages of this information-packed guide. Conversion Factors: Areas, Volumes, Weights, Pressures, Power, Metrics, Heat values of fuels... Economics: Present worth, Compound amount, Single and uniform series... Electrical: Ohm's Law (dozens of applications), Horsepower, Meter-spin-test, Power Factor... Fuels: Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, Dalton's Law, Graham's Law, Perfect gas laws, Partial pressures... Envelope: R-Values and weights of various insulation materials, Heat transfer coefficients and calculations, Degree day calculations... Solar: Insolation rates for various angles, Mean sunlight percentage by location... Lighting: Lamp-life and efficacy comparisons, Electro-magnetic spectrum chart, illuminance categories and values, Lighting economics... Motors: Pump and fan laws/affinity curves, Torque-work-power formulae... HVAC: Duct sizing calculations, KW/TON to COP and EER, Chiller efficiency calculations, Sensible/latent heat calculations... All of the information in the book was put together for energy professionals, by energy professionals. Take advantage of the extensive data in this compact, easy to use package. The Handbook is: Pocket sized, 3 3/4" x 5 1/2". Spiral bound for ease of use (won't flip closed). Compiled and formatted for easy access. Designed for quick readability. Printed on recycled paper.
