PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

Membrane and Coating-Based Built Environmental Control Technologies addresses the urgent need for energy-saving and low-carbon solutions in the HVAC industry. With air conditioning accounting for a significant portion of energy consumption, this book explores technologies such as total heat recovery, air dehumidification, PM2.5 purification, and anti-frosting and anti-dewing. The utilization of membranes and coatings in these technologies has shown promising results in efficiency and indoor environment control. It provides a comprehensive overview of these advancements, including principles, material fabrications, performance analysis methods, and design guidelines.The book fills the gap in the market by offering an up-to-date reference that covers traditional and novel applications of membranes and coatings. It includes applications in areas like total heat recovery, air humidification and dehumidification, PM2.5 filtration, anti-frosting, and self-cleaning. It also provides mathematical models and numerical schemes to address heat and mass transfer challenges. Overall, it serves as a valuable resource for professionals, researchers, and students in the field of built environmental control technologies.
