First Edition. Baltimore: Printed and Published by H. Niles, 1819. First Printing of Brackenridge's Eloquent Defense of Religious Liberty for Maryland Jews [Brackenridge, Henry Marie (1786-1871)]. Niles' Weekly Register. New Series. No. 14-Vol. IV. Baltimore, May 29, 1819. [Baltimore]: Printed and Published by H. Niles, [1819]. 225-240 pp. Octavo (9-3/4" x 6-1/4"; 24.76 x 15.87 cm). Disbound, leaves starting to separate at ends but secure, moderate toning, faint dampstaining to corners, light soiling to a few leaves, small tear to fore-edge of first two leaves not affecting text. $750. * Includes the first printing of Henry Brackenridge's speech in favor of Maryland's act "to extend to the sect of people professing the Jewish religion the same rights and privileges enjoyed by Christians," better known as the "Jew Bill." Like many other states, Maryland's constitution required public officials to profess "a belief in the Christian religion," barring Jews from holding any public office, including military service and the legal profession. The struggle to change the law was long and bitter. Petitions to the legislature were submitted by Maryland Jews beginning in 1797, but the bill was repeatedly defeated on the floor. In 1818, the bill was reintroduced and Brackenridge gave an extensive, passionate speech in its favor. Referring to the exclusion of Jews from office as "degrading" and "odious," he argued that the law violated the federal constitution and the founding principles of the nation, citing, among other sources, James Madison and Tucker's Blackstone. Despite his efforts, the bill was defeated again and would not pass until 1826. The speech was issued in pamphlet form along with the full text of the bill and another speech from Thomas Kennedy in November 1819, with the text of Brackenridge's speech taken from this issue of the Weekly Register (Cohen). Though there is no official record of the debates, a collection of speeches on the bill was published by Brackenridge in 1829. See Cohen, Bibliography of Early American Law 3516.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Most commercial HVAC engineers learned load calculation from textbooks written for a different era - one without low-GWP refrigerant mandates, electrification requirements, or energy codes that penalise oversized systems.Are you still sizing commercial systems using methods that predate A2L refrigerants and the latest energy codes? Do you struggle to verify the numbers your software produces, or defend your equipment selections when a plan reviewer asks you to show your work? When a client asks whether their building qualifies for an all-electric heat pump system, do you have a calculation-backed answer ready?The commercial HVAC landscape has changed faster in the past five years than in the previous three decades. A2L refrigerants are now the baseline for most equipment categories. Heat pump electrification is a code-driven expectation on projects of every size. A load calculation that passed review five years ago may no longer support a compliant design today.This handbook delivers a complete, sequential, calculation-based workflow - from heat transfer fundamentals and psychrometrics through envelope loads, solar heat gain, internal gains, ventilation, and infiltration, assembling everything into zone cooling and heating load calculations, then extending into variable refrigerant flow sizing, heat pump balance-point analysis, A2L safety compliance, energy code pathways, and a fully integrated case study of a mixed-use commercial building.Readers will be able to: Calculate block and zone cooling loads with full unit tracking and code-correct inputsSize and correct variable refrigerant flow systems for actual project conditionsDetermine balance points and supplemental heating requirements for air-source heat pump installationsEvaluate A2L charge limits, ventilation requirements, and detection thresholds for complianceDemonstrate energy code compliance for envelope assemblies and mechanical systemsConstruct a complete load calculation package ready for permit submission and peer reviewApply psychrometric analysis to coil selection and humidity control on real projectsEngineers who depend on software outputs they cannot verify are increasingly at a disadvantage as clients and reviewers demand documented answers. As electrification and refrigerant regulations become standard on every project, fluency in these methods shifts from a differentiator to a baseline expectation. The engineers who build this fluency now will be leading project teams while others are still catching up.Get your copy today and start calculating with the confidence that comes from understanding every number you put on paper.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Most electricians and engineers know enough theory to pass an exam but not enough practice to keep a plant running.That gap shows up at the worst moments. A motor fails at 2 a.m. and the troubleshooting call stalls because nobody on shift can read the schematic with enough confidence to isolate the fault. A panel fails its inspection two days before commissioning. A drive trips on a fault code that nobody can interpret. Careers stall not from lack of effort but from lack of the specific, integrated knowledge that industrial motor control systems actually demand.This handbook closes that gap systematically and completely, so that a reader who starts with the electrical fundamentals arrives at the other end ready to commission a multi-motor variable-speed system, program its control logic, design its panel documentation package, and diagnose it when something goes wrong.Working through this book, you will be able to: Read and interpret industrial schematics, ladder diagrams, and wiring diagrams accurately under field conditionsSize conductors, overcurrent protective devices, and motor branch circuits in accordance with applicable electrical codesDesign, wire, and commission relay-based motor starting circuits, including reduced-voltage starting methodsWrite, test, and commission PLC ladder logic programs for real industrial motor control applicationsConfigure and troubleshoot variable frequency drives on pump, fan, and conveyor loads, including PID process controlDesign motor control panels that meet applicable electrical installation and safety standardsApply a systematic troubleshooting methodology to power circuit, control circuit, PLC, and drive faultsIn every facility, there is a small group of people who get called first when a critical system goes down. They get called first because their knowledge is integrated - they can move from the schematic to the panel to the controller to the drive without losing the thread. The technicians and engineers who cannot make that move fluently remain available for the easier calls. This book is how that integration is built, one discipline at a time, using a single reference application that runs through every topic so nothing exists in isolation and everything connects to everything else.That gap between where you are and where that group operates is exactly what this book is designed to close.
