This book presents an in-depth analysis covering climatic and
weather conditions, house and building development history,
construction methods and technologies, and environmental
conditions. It provides relevant house and building information and
highlights recent advances in hot and humid regions, as well as
developments in other regions that are relevant to hot and humid
climates. The countries in hot and humid regions, which include the
tropical countries, the Middle Eastern countries around the
Mediterranean, and many countries of Central Asia and Africa, are
home to some of the most challenging conditions in the world in
terms of house and building design and construction, and in terms
of maintaining indoor thermal comfort and air quality in an
energy-efficient way. The book's respective chapters, prepared by
expert contributors, cover essential concepts, designs, and
construction methodologies for houses and commercial buildings. As
such, the book offers a valuable resource for undergraduate and
graduate students in architecture and engineering, house and
building designers, and building sciences researchers. Building
contractors, manufacturers and distributors of building equipment
and devices, and government policymakers and legislators will also
benefit from the information provided in this book.
This book presents the necessary fundamental knowledge in the
research, development, design, selection, and application of
desiccant heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning systems. It
covers the established installations in different climatic
conditions and building types. In addition, advanced performance
evaluation techniques are presented, covering thermodynamic,
economic, and environmental aspects. Hence, the book is an
important resource for undergraduate and graduate students, design
and installation engineers, researchers and scientists, building
owners and occupants, and energy and environmental policy makers.
