To calculate Btu's per pound of dry air (btu/lb), provide "Entering Air" and "Leaving Air" dry bulb temperatures, for Btu's per pound of moist air, add the entering air wet bulb temperature. To calculate changes in humidity include the leaving air wet bulb temperature as well. Provide the airflow volume in cubic feet per minute CFM to convert Btu's per pound of air to Btu's per hour. |
| The calculations of refrigerant load show a division of the true sensible and latent heat loss or gain of the air. Calculations are accurate within the limitations of the data. The calculations will not correspond to load determinations obtained from approximate density factors or constants i.e. 1.08, 4.5 & 0.68
unless the leaving air is 70°F dry bulb, 0% relative humidity and 14.696 psi atmospheric pressure. |
