Fan Handbook: Selection, Application, and Design.......2007-06-08
A good addition to other fan design books but incomplete by itself as it lacks any real guidelines on the mechanical design.
It should include more on impeller stressing (blade bending & hoop stress), shaft critical speed and impeller resonance.
There are a few anomalies but also some good flow information.
The axial and centrifugal flow design data is good except for centrifugal fan casings which really only covers wide, high volume designs. If you are looking for detailed centrifugal casing design for high pressure blowers then look elsewhere (I am still looking).
The chapter on system resistance is very informative. The other sections on fan applications and the different fan types is also very good.

Not bad, but not over the fence, either........2002-02-26
As a basic primer on fan concepts, this is a good book. It also serves as a sort of non-engineer's guide to fan design and allows someone with very little knowledge or experience create a fan design of some reasonable worth.
Unfortunately, I was looking for a bit more of an in depth aerodynamic study and have yet to find a piece of literature that I like. I understand that many of the older books on cascade aerodynamics are quite good, but they are no longer in publication, and this didn't really satisfy my interests.
Particularly annoying to me is the lack of derivation of the methodology in the fan design section. Some basic magic formulas are given and then tied together with some basic velocity diagrams to yield a fan blade design methodology.
An execellent, practical work; worth owning........1998-08-02
The "Fan Handbook" is the finest book yet written on fan design, implementation, use, and trouble shooting. The book a delight to read and use. Mr. Bleier, unlike many techno-types, is fine writer (and I suspect re-writer) and a careful idea organizer. The work has many, many professionally shot photographs and is fully illustrated. There are no crude computer generated drawings anywhere! It's well indexed and heavily cross-referenced.
The book's slant is to the practical and explicitly avoids calculus, but it is by no means elementary. Any person with high school algebra and trig can understand the well-presented equations and solve all the case study problems with a little effort. Math phobes needn't be put off; the book is not "too" mathematical.
The only thing that prevented me from awarding five stars to this terrific book was an important omission. No mention is made of specialized fans for cooling towers. I had especially hoped to learn mo! re about design requirements for static presure regain/velocity recovery fan stacks for very large fans. But this shortcoming should not disuade any cooling tower engineers from purchasing this book, since all of the principles discussed do fully apply to cooling towers. END

review of AC and Refrig Repair by Fisher.......2005-09-30
I found the text to be very useful, although it was not the complete and through guide that I was hoping for. That would probably be in the factory shop manual for the central airconditioner that I am attempting to troubleshoot, and those are hard to come by.
Ron
Out of Date and Very Basic.......2004-10-26
This book is an excellent primer for someone that has no prior knowledge of A/C systems. It is very dated and lacks information on the newer systems and refrigerants.
Book Description
Technicians trained on air conditioning systems are often required to apply their skills to the servicing of commercial refrigeration equipment. This book provides a solid foundation in comfort cooling that can be readily transferred to a broad understanding of medium and low temperature refrigeration equipment such as walk-ins, reach-ins, refrigerated cases, and ice machines. Coverage specific to refrigeration in the food service industry is emphasized, with scores of practical tips that technicians can use right away in the installation and service of commercial equipment. Helpful tips and sound advice from the experienced author and his employees add a personal touch to the comprehensive coverage, increasing interest in, and retention of, key concepts. This book will improve technicians' knowledge, efficiency, and effectiveness in commercial refrigeration and can serve as a permanent addition to the reference library in any truck or shop.
Customer Reviews:
well done.......2007-05-31
the book is well put together and provides well thought out information, as well as being in depth enough to help anyone serious about the HVAC/R trade. I hate spending money for bad books and am happy to recommend this book for purchase. Buy it.
A "Must Have" refrigeration book. Buy two !.......2007-05-30
If you've done some HVAC work but find yourself stumped the first time you work on a freezer or frig, then you need this book!. This is a world of oil losses, hard to know line pressures, strange refrigerant valves and controls and head masters, etc. And this book will explain them all to you with lots of plain talk, plain examples, great drawings, and even a cd-rom of animation. And best of all, it has a page of "Rules of Thumb", such as; High Efficieny (seer) condenser splits = 20 degrees and below. And since refrigerant recovery of freezers and frig's are far more common place than HVAC work, it covers several methods of evacuation and recovery. This book has lots of troubleshooting notes and lots of pictures and all the basics of refrigeration from motors, capillarys, TEV'S and defrosters through superheat and critical charging and so much more. I own many hvac books and this one absolutely stands out as a 'must have' book ! Another good book to have when you want to "master" the trade, is Technician's Guide to Refrigeration Systems'by Corinchock. And of course, Troubleshooting and Servicing Modern Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Systems by Tomczyk. Warning that Tomczyk's book is sold as several books, each with a few chapters, so only buy the complete book I mentioned above, else you will have duplicate text.
Very good book.......2007-01-07
If you are looking to move from air-conditioning to refrigeration service,all the information you need is inside this book!!
excellent book.......2006-06-19
this book i a very comprehensive and well rounded in the real work workings of referation. I would recomend this book to anyone that is interested in furthing there knowledge in refrigeration field.
Good book........2006-06-13
This book has helped me to understand a lot more in A/C system.

Fantastic Book by Moubray.......2007-05-13
Superb book! a hands on approach for RCM makes it effective and easy to understand & implement RCM strategy.
The best reference for RCM.......2007-01-23
I have been working in the field of RCM since 1991. During that time I have read most of the texts in the marketplace on the subject as well as having worked in a range of countries and industries using a range of different methods.
Johns book is unique in that it is set in the context of asset maintenance as a managerial discipline of growing strategic significance. His vast knowledge, coupled with the vast knowledge and resources of his network of RCM practitioners, have combined to make this the finest text on RCM that has been produced to date.
If you want to get to know a little about RCM, understand how it is applied, and understand some of the techniques and principles that make up this area of expertise, then there is no better book in todays marketplace. I still carry a copy with me today on most jobs I undertake.
Written in laymans terms Johns' book is the most read book on the subject, and remains the standard by which others are measured. Don't waste your time elsewhere.
Helpful source; good start for anyone........2006-01-05
I purchased this book for a course that used it for a reference.
Overall it contains good information and provides understanding towards the concepts of RCM. I have a background in maintenance already and didn't have too hard of a time understanding the content; class helped, too. I noticed that some of the concepts and approaches to RCM were so simple in idea, that they are easily overlooked. It can add to your arsenal of tools that can help you do your job better and more efficiently. Overall the wording is understandable and isn't boring. Basically, I would say this book is suitable for someone in their 2nd-4th year in industrial maintenance desiring to be a planner or maint. manager position.
I enjoyed it because it opened my eyes to new ideas and exposed misconceptions about old RCM tactics that are inefficient.
Not a text, an advertisement.......2003-04-03
...this book is not a great maintenance text.
Rather, it's a sales pitch for a program. The program is fine on its own merit, but the book is not worthy of purchase. All lessons of the book (minus the child-like uptime calculus) can be summarized in the statement:
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it -- and if it's cheap to replace, don't maintain it."
That's the summary.
It's not worth [the money]
The definitive textbook on RCM.......2001-10-03
This book is the definitive textbook on RCM, the result of the accumulated experience of thousands of RCM reviews in nearly every industry and in dozens of countries around the world.
It presents RCM's distinctive "systems" approach to maintenance, offering sophisticated criteria for deciding among four kinds of scheduled tasks (not simply the replacement of individual non-repairable components), and equally sophisticated criteria for deciding among two other kinds of failure management policies (including redesign) if scheduled tasks are not appropriate.
If you wish to do RCM, you need this book plus a mentor to guide your early efforts. (How many of us learned to ride a bicycle without someone holding the handlebars?)
But if you simply wish to understand RCM -- you need this book.

This is a truly valuable reference to the industrial professional with major electrical equipment to maintain and operate.
My Assessment of Electrical Equipment Handbook by P. Kiameh.......2003-06-09
Mr Kiameh has done it again. He has captured his vast practical knowledge into this simple yet comprehensive handbook. The difference between this book and a typical text used in the academic world is that one can find solutions and descriptions to their plant problems; the academic texts are heavily biased to the theorectical while Mr. Kiameh's approach hinges strongly in the industrial aspects.
Philip Kiameh has done it again !! Another practical book.......2003-05-13
Philip Kiameh has provided us with another practical book that focuses on Power Generation equipments. This book begins with an introduction to Electrical Engineering concepts and then continues with electric machinery, motors, transformers and generators. This book is very well written with excellent examples and figures. The book is also intended for those who are not electrical engineers and provides a comprehensive picture of electrical equipments in industrial applicatons. It is a must for anyone working in an industrial environment.
Electrical Equipment Handbook : By Philip Kiameh.......2003-05-13
The author puts his decades of design and maintenance experience into this book. You will find the latest information on all common electrical equipment utilized in a power generation or other type of processing plants.
This book covers: basic concepts and equations, technology used, application, testing, as well as maintenance. The approach is very hands-on and it will enhence your knowledge as the electrical expert.
However, this book is written in very simple labnguage. It will also benefit students or non-electrical technical staff trying to gain a quick overall picture.
This is one of your best reference handbook.
Book Description
The names Bloch and Geitner are synonymous with machinery maintenance and reliability for process plants. They save companies like Dow and Equilon millions of dollars a year by extending the life of rotating machinery in their plants. Extending the life of existing machinery is the name of the game in the process industries, not designing new machinery. This series by Bloch and Geitner was the first and is still the best, most comprehensive source for doing just that.
This classic text on reliability has been revised to include all new material on risk management, pre-grouted bases, laser alignment, cartridge seals maintenance, and many other topics which have undergone many developments since the last revision.
