Sales in the market for refrigeration & air conditioning increased by 68%. The demand for cooling and air conditioning systems in the Asian market, especially in China, grew steadily and loud message led to very heavy volume.

In market-specific vacuum process industries (solar, flat panel displays, precision optics and semiconductors), sales almost doubled. Both chip manufacturers and equipment manufacturers in Asia and the U.S. have shown an increased demand over the same period last year.

Sales in the market for general vacuum applications submitted according to the information to both Europe and in Asia and the demand to hold on. The growth over the previous year was 47%. The customer makes new investments and were not limited only to repeat orders, it said.

The Air Conditioning Manual was written to assist entry-level engineers in the design of air-conditioning systems. It is also suable — in conjuction with fundamental HVAC&R resourcee material — as a senior- or graduate-level text for a university course in HVAC system design. The manual was written to fill the void between theory and practice — to bridge the gap between real-world design practices and the theoretical caluclations and analytical procedures or on the design of components.

* Helps engineers quickly come up with a design solution to a required air conditioning system.
* Includes issues from comfort to cooling load calculations.
* New sections on “Green HVAC” systems deal with hot topic of sustainable buildings.
