Energy - Efficient Building

Engineering equipment for high-rise building

Energy - Efficient Building
This book provides the first summary of Russian experience in design and operation of high-rise buildings.

The first chapter describes global experience in design of engineering equipment for the most famous high-rise buildings. Subsequent chapters discuss parameters of external atmosphere, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, fire protection, water supply and drainage, garbage removal, clothes supply, automation systems implemented on specific objects. These chapters give calculation of air rate for a multistorey residential building during the year, methods for calculation of required ventilators' parameters for smoke protection system, calculation of sewage system, as well as the concept for evaluation of investing efficiency into heat energy supply and energy conservation in buildings and the method for determination of local aerodynamic effects on a high-rise building.

A separate chapter is dedicated to detail characteristics of engineering systems for premises and objects of multiuse buildings built in Moscow in the recent years.

The publication is meant for a wide range of specialists: designers, operations engineers, architects, developers, heat and power supply, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, fire safety, water supply, water drainage, automation engineers, as well as lecturers and students of architectural and civil engineer specializations.
