5A refrigeration Techs Must Have  Aug 08, 2000 By Baboon Boy
This book covers all the details! I use this book everyday as refrence material. It covers everything from the basics, but also gets into complicated 2 stage design, and other design areas. From A-Z this book has it. If you are a refrigeration Engineer/ Operator this is a must for the text collection.

5In depth basics to complicated analysis of refrigation cycle  Dec 10, 1998 By debien@flash.net
In understanding the refrigeration cycle, Roy Dossat had 25 years in the field before teaching at the University of Houston. I was fortunate to attend the course taught by him in the 70's. It showed the man had much to offer even to the less experienced technician who needed to start on the basics. This book is easy to understand and a nice read for those who need answers to the complicated use of refrigerant and applications that drive the business. Refrigerant application is in constant change as environmental demands alter our lives. This book is a fundamental foundation and should be on the reference shelf of all engineers and technicians that want a straight foward understanding of the refrigeration cycle. debien@flash.net

5best refrigeration book ever  Jan 06, 2007 By Raul Valderama "hvactech"
This is the best refrigeration book in the market, highly technical but still easy to understand, come with a very good explanation about food preservation methods and spoilage factors, the refrigeration aspect are deep, slightly conceptual but mostly practical, a most have for anyone that want to gain true understanding of refrigeration and thermodynamics.


5Excellent book  Oct 14, 2008 By Tim Harvey "Valhallah"
This book bridges the gap between theory and practical applications without getting bogged down in heavy calculations. It explains the principles of refrigeration and how they are practically applied. I have found it very easy to read. The author obviously has excellent knowledge and experience in this field and he conveys it well. The information structure of the book suits my way of thinking. I have found this book very helpful to my profession. Many thanks to the author. Worth every cent.


5Continuing to be the best book for refrigeration  Jun 17, 2008 By N. P. Amschwand
I learnt refrigeration from the 1961 edition of Principles of Refrigeration. So when I was asked to instruct junior staff members in this subject this book came to mind. I purchased one copy to see how it handles SI as well as imperial units and then purchased another six for the students. As always Amazon provided an excellent service.
