In addition to the chapters specifically mentioned, the following were also reviewed and revised: Combustion and Fuels, Automatic Fuel Burning Equipment, Radiators and Convectors, Pipe, Fittings, Welding, Heat Transfer Surface Coils, Spray Equipment, Air Pollution, Air Cleaning Devices, Natural Ventilation, and Water Supply Piping and Water Heating.
The greater part of the text of the Guide results from the contribu tions of many individuals submitted over a considerable period of years. The. Guide Publication Committee acknowledges its indebtedness to all those who have participated in the compilation of earlier editions. The Committee also wishes to thank the many Guide users for their helpful suggestions, many of which were used in the preparation of this Guide 1942.
Special thanks are due to the following men who have assisted the Committee and have contributed the new material which appears in this edition:
T. N. Adlam L. M. K. Boelter Sabin Crocker R. C. Edwards M. K. Fahnestock John A. Goff W. A. Grant E. C. Hach W. E. Heibel
Saburo Hori F. C. Houghten
S. Konzo
S. R. Lewis A. L. London M. W. McRae H. B. Meller A. R. Mumford E. T. P. Neubauer H. B. Prewitt
W. C. Randall Ralph Seban A. E. Seelig R. J. Tenkonohv J. H. Van Alsburg H. A. Wagner E. C. Webb E. P. Wells William Yerkes
Still others who have assisted in the preparation of this Guide and who merit the thanks of the Committee are the members of the Com mittee on Research, authors of papers, and the many men who willingly gave their time in the review and editing of the material.
The reader's attention is also directed to the Catalog Data Section and careful inspection of this section is recommended. Concise information on many types of equipment is included in this section, and it has been carefully arranged in logical sub-divisions to facilitate its use.
This 1942 edition of the Guide is released with the sincere hope that its users will find that it is a fitting tribute to those whose 20 years of unselfish service have contributed so much to the advancement of heating, ventilating and air conditioning. May this Guide be as useful
as its predecessors.
