Analysis and Design of Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Systems, Second Edition
暫譯: 暖通空調系統的分析與設計（第二版）

《暖通空調系統的分析與設計（第二版）》提供了商業和工業建築暖通空調（HVAC）的全面且現代化的概述，強調能源效率。本書結合了暖氣和空調系統設計的內容，並詳細介紹了最新的控制技術。它還探討了HVAC設計的藝術，並仔細解釋了科學和技術內容，反映了作者的豐富經驗。本書涵蓋了現代HVAC主題，包括可持續性、室內空氣品質（IAQ）、水處理與風險管理、振動與噪音減緩，以及從實際角度出發的可維護性。

Herbert W. Stanford III, PE, is a North Carolina native and 1966 graduate of North Carolina State University with a BS in mechanical engineering. He is a registered professional engineer in North Carolina. In 1977, he founded Stanford White, Inc., an engineering consulting firm in Raleigh, North Carolina, and semiretired in 1998. Currently, Mr. Stanford is actively engaged in investigative and forensic engineering, teaching, and writing within a broad range of topics relative to buildings, especially heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems; indoor environmental quality; and building operations and maintenance. Mr. Stanford developed the Facilities Condition Assessment Program for the state of North Carolina and the Life Cycle Cost Methodology used by North Carolina to evaluate building design decisions. He has taught a series of short courses on current building topics at the University of Toledo (Ohio), North Carolina State University, and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and he is a life member of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Mr. Stanford is the author of HVAC Water Chillers and Cooling Towers: Fundamentals, Application, and Operation (Second Edition, CRC Press, 2011); The Health Care HVAC Technician (MGI Systems, Inc., 2008), a program and training manual for hospital HVAC maintenance personnel; and Effective Building Maintenance (Fairmont Press, 2010).

Adam F. Spach was born in upstate New York and graduated from Alfred University with a BS in mechanical engineering in 2000. After graduation, he relocated to North Carolina and has called it his home since. Mr. Spach has worked as an HVAC consulting engineer since 2001 and is licensed as a professional engineer in North Carolina and several other states. He joined Stanford White, Inc., Raleigh, North Carolina, in 2005 and is now an associate with that firm. He currently focuses on providing engineering services for educational (K-12 and university), commercial, recreational, research, and healthcare facilities. Mr. Spach has a passion for sustainable design in the built environment. He was appointed to the Wake County Citizen's Energy Advisory Committee, serving as the vice chair from 2010 to 2014, and currently cochairs the High Performance Building Task Force sponsored by the North Carolina chapter of the American Institute of Architects. He has made presentations at the annual North Carolina State Construction Conference on three occasions and at the annual North Carolina Sustainable Energy Conference on five occasions. Mr. Spach routinely lectures at the North Carolina State Design School.

赫伯特·W·斯坦福三世 (Herbert W. Stanford III), PE 是北卡羅來納州的本地人，於1966年畢業於北卡羅來納州立大學，獲得機械工程學士學位。他是北卡羅來納州的註冊專業工程師。1977年，他創立了斯坦福·懷特公司 (Stanford White, Inc.)，這是一家位於北卡羅來納州羅利的工程顧問公司，並於1998年半退休。目前，斯坦福先生積極從事調查和法醫工程、教學以及與建築相關的廣泛主題的寫作，特別是供暖、通風和空調 (HVAC) 系統；室內環境質量；以及建築運營和維護。斯坦福先生為北卡羅來納州開發了設施狀況評估計劃，並制定了北卡羅來納州用於評估建築設計決策的生命週期成本方法論。他曾在托萊多大學 (University of Toledo, 俄亥俄州)、北卡羅來納州立大學和北卡羅來納大學夏洛特分校教授一系列有關當前建築主題的短期課程，並且是美國供暖、製冷和空調工程師學會 (ASHRAE) 的終身會員。斯坦福先生是《HVAC水冷卻器和冷卻塔：基本原理、應用與操作》（第二版，CRC Press，2011年）、《醫療保健HVAC技術人員》（MGI Systems, Inc.，2008年，為醫院HVAC維護人員提供的計劃和培訓手冊）以及《有效的建築維護》（Fairmont Press，2010年）的作者。

亞當·F·斯帕赫 (Adam F. Spach) 出生於紐約州上州，於2000年畢業於阿爾弗雷德大學，獲得機械工程學士學位。畢業後，他搬到北卡羅來納州，並自此將其視為家。斯帕赫先生自2001年以來一直擔任HVAC顧問工程師，並在北卡羅來納州及其他幾個州獲得專業工程師執照。他於2005年加入斯坦福·懷特公司，現為該公司的合夥人。他目前專注於為教育 (K-12和大學)、商業、休閒、研究和醫療設施提供工程服務。斯帕赫先生對可持續設計在建築環境中的應用充滿熱情。他曾被任命為威克縣公民能源諮詢委員會的成員，並於2010年至2014年擔任副主席，目前共同主持由美國建築師學會北卡羅來納州分會贊助的高性能建築工作組。他曾在北卡羅來納州州立建設會議上發表過三次演講，並在北卡羅來納州可持續能源會議上發表過五次演講。斯帕赫先生定期在北卡羅來納州立設計學院講課。
