Application of Manufacturers Sound Data

This book gives engineers and consultants the ability to understand and interpret the acoustical ratings data assigned to most HVAC products in a practical application manner in order to choose appropriate systems or troubleshoot after-the-fact HVAC-related noise problems. This text discusses understanding the basis of manufacturers' acoustical data, understanding how the project application may differ from that rated by the manufacturers, and exercising good system design considerations. The chapters in this book are arranged by categories of HVAC equipment noise sources, making this publication an easy-to-use reference handbook for engineers, acoustical consultants, designers, contractors, building owners, manufacturers and others involved in the specification, design, sales and commissioning of buildings. This text was developed under ASHRAE Research Project RP-786. 9" X 6"; soft cover.
