  ASHRAE Transactions papers are reviewed by competent specialists to ensure high quality of content. Two types of papers are included: conference papers which generally present applications and case studies, and technical papers with discussion questions and answers which report on Society-sponsored or unsolicited HVAC&R research. Conference papers receive one or more single-blind reviews by two or more reviewers. Technical papers undergo one or more double-blind reviews by three or more reviewers.

Paper topics include indoor air quality, refrigeration, building controls, sustainability, applications of heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) technology, and more.

Included in this collection are the 85 conference and 32 technical papers presented at the 2012 ASHRAE Winter Conference in Chicago, Illinois. Also included are an address delivered by the current ASHRAE President, as well as the technical program from the conference, and other official Society information.
