ASHRAE Transactions - 2020 Winter Conference, Orlando, FL, Volume 126, Part 1

Published since 1895, ASHRAE Transactions now comprises the Technical Papers and Conference Papers presented at ASHRAE’s Winter Conferences. Technical Papers undergo one or more double-blind reviews by three or more reviewers and are published with discussion questions and answers. Conference Papers are shorter in length than Technical Papers, undergo a less stringent review and can be prepared closer to the conferences. Unlike Technical Papers, abstracts of Conference Papers are submitted first for review. Upon acceptance, papers are due three months after abstract acceptance and undergo a single-blind review. The Technical Papers and Conference Papers encompass the wide range of technologies and applications of interest to researchers and practitioners whose work shapes the built environment.ASHRAE Transactions is cited/indexed in: Gale/Cengage Learning's Academic OneFile, InfoTrac, Professional Development Collection, and Small Business Collection; Elsevier's Ei Engineering Village's Ei Compendex and Engineering Index; International Institute of Refrigeration's FRIDOC; ProQuest Technology Research Database's CSA Materials Research Database with METADEX, CSA Engineering Research Database, and CSA High Technology Research Database with Aerospace; Elsevier's Scopus and Compendex; and Clarivate Analytics Web of Science's Current Contents®/Engineering, Computing & Technology, Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition, and Science Citation Index Expanded (also known as SciSearch®).Paper topics include indoor air quality, refrigeration, building controls, sustainability, applications of heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration technology, and more.Included in this collection are the 65 Conference Papers and 26 Technical Papers presented at the 2020 ASHRAE Winter Conference in Orlando, Florida.
