ASHRAE Transactions - 2023 Annual Conference, Tampa, FL, Vol. 129, Pt 2

Published since 1895, ASHRAE Transactions now comprises the Technical Papers, Conference Papers, and Extended Abstracts presented at ASHRAE’s Annual 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. Extended Abstracts, presented as part of the Research Track of ASHRAE Annual Conferences, undergo a single blind review and are intended to be preliminary research results that will eventually be expanded into a full paper.The Technical Papers, Conference Papers, and Extended Abstracts 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: Cengage Gale’s Academic OneFile, InfoTrac, and Small Business Collection; Elsevier’s Ei Engineering Village’s Ei Compendex and Engineering Index; ProQuest Technology Research Database’s Cambridge Scientific Abstracts (CSA) Materials Research Database with METADEX, CSA Engineering Research Database, CSA High Technology Research Database with Aerospace, and ProQuest Central; Elsevier’s Scopus and Compendex; and Clarivate Analytics Web of Science’s Conference Proceedings Citation Index (CPCI).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 94 Conference Papers and 18 Extended Abstracts presented at the 2023 ASHRAE Annual Conference in Tampa, Florida.
