State-of-the-art information and data for todays most efficient industrial refrigeration systems!

Drawing from the best of the widely dispersed literature in the field and the authors vast professional knowledge and experience, here is todays 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
• safety procedures
• and much more!

Offering a rare compilation of thermodynamic data on the most-used industrial refrigerants, the Handbook is a one-stop source of vital information and guidance for every practitioner in the field.
