Chapter 41 Air Duct Design. New tables givjBgyu^friar equivalents of rectangular ducts'
are based^ upon formulas developed ^ latest*ASHVB research. The treatment of losses
occurring in systems has been enlarged and includes a detailed discussion of losses due to area
changes. Under the subject of sizing ducts, three methods are outlined and examples are
included.
'
Chapter 46--Industrial Exhaust Systems.' Numerous revisions in fundamental design
data have been added to keep this chapter in agreement with the latest knowledge on the
subject.
';
^
[Chapter 7--Drying Systems. New illustrations of dryers and new diagrams of drying operations are included in' the rewritten and enlarged chapter. Problems in drying have been amplified. An example is given in the solution of a typical drying problem and the .
selection of a belt-type of. dryer.
Chapter 48--Transportation Air. Conditioning. This chapter has been rewritten in order
to present current practice , in design and control of heating, cooling and air conditioning
systems in modem railway passenger cars, street cars, trolley coaches, passenger buses and
aircraft. Special requirements for various types of planes are discussed.
<
Chapter 52--Codes and Standards.- - The record of codes and standards applicable to heat-
ing, ventilating and air conditioning has been reviewed, and references to the latest editions *
of the codes have been brought up to date. In addition, a reference column indicates where,
the codes may be obtained, and a list of addresses of the sponsoring organizations hhs been
added.
*
. The cross index of the Technical Data Section has been enlarged to facilitate reference to the technical text.
.The high standard established by The Guide has been made possihle by the contributions of many members, organizations and individual authorities in the past, as well as those who have devoted considerable time and effort to the improvement of the present edition. It is a pleasure to acknowledge this valuable service of the following contributors to the 27th edition:

The reader's attention is directed to the Catalog Data Section which provides concise'
information on the up-to-date products of 249 manufacturers. A cross index of manufactured products facilitates the finding of sources of supply for equipment needed in heating, ventilat ing and air conditioning installations.
The 1949 edition of The Guide is presented with the hope, that-the many improvements
incorporated will make this volume increasingly valuable to the manufacturer, student, teacher and practicing engineer.
