HVAC Control in the New Millenium

Advances in personal computer control and sensor technology are leading the advances in building controls. Pushing the technology are potentially high reductions in operating costs from the increased operational efficiency. This book examines how the latest advances in distributed technology will be used in commercial systems. Topics include the full scope of current and emerging HVAC control technologies, covering personal computer-based systems, expert systems, fibre optic infrared technologies, wireless communication, self-optimizing software sensors, micro technology, distributed direct digital control, control bus techniques and more.
