| The
Room Area output indicates the floor area to be airconditioned
in square feet. |
This
Room Area output indicates the floor area to be airconditioned
in square meters. |
| The
Tons of AC output indicates the tons of airconditioning
required, and is used to select the equipment. The airconditioning
equipment must be selected to meet both, the tons and the Air quantity.
1 ton is equivalent to 12,000 btu per hour, and represents the rate
of heat to be removed from the room. |
This Kw
of AC output value indicates the Kilowatt of airconditioning
required, and can be used to select the equipment. This value is NOT
the electrical consumption of the machine! The airconditioning equipment
must be selected to meet both, the Kw and the Air quantity. 1 Kw of
airconditioning is equivalent to 3,000 Kcal/hour and represents the
rate of heat removal from the room. |
| The
Air Quantity output value indicates the air quantity that
the airconditioner must supply, in cubic feet per minute (cfm). This
value is also used to select the airconditioning equipment. The airconditioning
equipment must be selected to meet both, the Tons and the Air quantity
requirement. |
The
Air Quantity output value indicates the air quantity that
the airconditioner must supply, in litres per second. This value is
also used to select the airconditioning equipment. The airconditioning
equipment must be selected to meet both, the Kw and the Air quantity.

| The
Fresh Air output value required has been calculated such
that the air within the room changes completely every hour. This is
adequate for normal office and residence occupancies. For high density
occupancies, such as cinema theatres, bars, or airport lounges, a
minimum of 5 cubic feet per minute per person should be selected.
The fresh air quantity is in cubic feet per minute. |
The
Fresh Air output value required has been calculated such
that the air within the room changes completely every hour. This is
adequate for normal office and residence occupancies. For high density
occupancies, such as cinema theatres, bars, or airport lounges, a
minimum of 2.36 litres per second per person should be selected. The
fresh air quantity is in litres per second. |
