Contents The field of industrial refrigeration -- Properties, cycles and units -- Multistage systems -- Reciprocating compressors -- Screw compressors -- Evaporators -- air coils and liquid chillers -- Condensers -- Liquid recirculation -- Refrigerant piping -- Vessels -- Valves and refrigerant controls -- Refrigerants -- Safety -- Electrical control and instrumentation -- Lubrication and oil handling -- Conservation, Reclaim, and storage of energy -- The refrigeration and freezing of food -- Refrigeration load calculations -- Refrigerated structures -- Secondary coolants -- Brines and antifreezes -- Refrigeration below -40 degrees
Summary "Drawing from the best of the widely dispersed literature in the field and the author's vast professional knowledge and experience, here is today's most exhaustive, one-stop coverage of the fundamentals, design, installation, and operation of industrial refrigeration systems. Detailing the industry changes caused by the conversion from CFCs to non-ozone-depleting refrigerants and by the development of microprocessors and new secondary coolants, Industrial Refrigeration Handbook also examines multistage systems; compressors, evaporators, and condensers; piping, vessels, valves and refrigerant controls; liquid recirculation; refrigeration load calculations; refrigeration and freezing of food; and safety procedures. Offering a rare compilation of thermodynamic data on the most-used industrial refrigerants, the Handbook is a mother lode of vital information and guidance for every practitioner in the field."
