ASHRAE Engineer’s Notebook: Designing HVAC for humid vs. arid climates

Designers must consider outside conditions during all seasons and their impact on the operation of the building and HVAC systems. This paper, co-written by IMEG’s Jeff Boldt, examines key design strategies for projects whether they are in climates that are humid or arid, hot or cold.
