Revised and edited, this new 3rd variation reference covers the complete scope of strength administration concepts and functions for brand new and latest structures, with emphasis at the "systems" method of constructing an efficient total strength administration process. most well known within the improvements to the hot variation is content material that displays the emphasis on conservation for "green power" information.
Also tested are development structural issues, resembling warmth loss and achieve, home windows, and insulation. a radical dialogue of heating and cooling structures fundamentals is supplied, besides power administration guidance. additionally lined are power conservation measures which may be utilized for lights platforms, water platforms, and electric platforms. particular power administration applied sciences and their software are mentioned intimately, together with solar power structures, strength administration platforms, and replacement power technologies.
• Covers the whole scope of strength administration suggestions and purposes for brand spanking new and current buildings
• Emphasizes a "systems" method of constructing a good total power administration strategy
• comprises greater content material that displays the emphasis on conservation for "green strength" awareness

This ebook presents the readers with a well timed consultant to the applying of biomimetic ideas in structure and engineering layout. due to a mixed attempt through the world over well-known professionals, the biologist Werner Nachtigall and the architect Göran Pohl, the booklet describes the rules that are used to check nature and expertise, and whilst it provides precise reasons and examples displaying how biology can be utilized as a resource of thought and “translated” in development and architectural strategies (biomimicry).

Example text
As a rule, specific heat is a measure of the ability of a material to absorb heat compared with the ability of water to absorb heat. Water tends to absorb heat or lose it very slowly. The specific heat of water is 1 calorie, or simply the value 1. Compared with other materials this is a rather high value. 093. 093 or about 1/10 calorie to raise the temperature of copper by 1°C. Because of the high specific heat of water, regions bordering on large bodies of water tend to have cooler summers and warmer winters than do inland areas at the same latitude.
The molecules of a heated object vibrate and produce waves that are very similar to these. The primary difference between water waves and heat waves is the medium in which the wave travels. Heat waves are unique in this regard, because they do not travel in matter. When a heat wave strikes an object in its path, heat energy is released into the object. Heat Measurement Two measures of heat are the calorie and the British thermal unit (Btu). A calorie is the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree on a Celsius (C) thermometer.
The rate at which a liquid evaporates depends a great deal on the nature of the material. Alcohol, chloroform, and ether evaporate much more rapidly than water. Regardless of the readiness of a material to evaporate, there are four ways in which evaporation may be increased. 1. By adding heat. When heat is added to a liquid, its molecules tend to become more active. This permits them to escape from the surface of the liquid rather easily, which increases evaporation. 2. By spreading the liquid over a wider area.
