Internal Heat Gains
The component of the space cooling load is the heat that originates within the space. Typical sources of internal heat gain are p
lights, cooking processes and other heat-generating equipment, such as motors, appliances and office equipment.

The people inside the space contribute both sensible and latent heat. Lighting contributes only sensible heat to the space
,heat and latent heat (as in the case for a coffee maker). Infiltration generally contributes both sensible and latent heat to the s
while equipment in the space may contribute only sensible heat (as in the case for a computer) or both sensible

3.1 Internal Load – Lightings


Heat Gain due to Internal Lights
The primary source of heat from lighting comes from the light emitting elements, or lamps, although significant additional
heat may be generated from associated components in the light fixtures housing such as lamps.
The Cooling Load due to lighting in a particular zone is calculated as follows:
qsl = 3.41 x Watts x Fu x Fs x CLF – Eqn. (11)

where:
qsl= Cooling Load due to lighting, Btu/hr
3.41= Conversion factor, Btu/hr-W
Watts = Total wattage of lighting fixture, watts
Since there is no lighting fixture given during this design stage, it was assumed that lighting load is equal to 2watt
Fu= Use factor, fraction of Watts in use
=1
Fs = Special allowance factor (Ballast factor in the case of fluorescent and metal halide fixtures)
= 1.2 (Recommended value for general applications)
CLF = Cooling load factor, (equal to “1” since cooling system operates when lights are ON)
Calculating for heat gain due to internal lightings,

4.Infiltration and Ventilation Loads


Air leaking into a space is called infiltration. During the cooling season, when air more humid than the indoor air. Ou
air is often used to dilute or remove contaminants from the indoor air. The intentional introduction of outdoor air in
through the use of the building’s HVAC system, is called ventilation. This outdoor air must often be cooled and deh
before it can be delivered to the space, creating an additional load on the air-conditioning equipment. ASHRAE Sta
Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality, prescribes the quantity of outdoor air required per person (or per un
to provide adequate ventilation for various types of spaces.
4.1 Infiltration Load
Sensible Heat Gain due to Infiltration
Applying the Air Change Method (ACH), the equation used to estimate the sensible heat gain from infiltration is:
qsi = 1.08 x Airflow x TDi - Eqn. (15)
where:
qsi= Sensible heat gain due to infiltration, Btu/hr
1.08 Product of density and specific heat of air at standard conditions (69 °F dry air at sea level)
= 0.075 lb/ft³ x 0.24 Btu/lb-°F x 60 min/hr
= 1.08 Btu-min/hr-ft³-°F
Density of air = 0.075 lb/ft³
Specific heat of air at constant pressure = 0.24 Btu/lb-°F
Conversion factor : 60 min per hour
Airflow = Quantity of air infiltrating the space, ft³/min
Airflow = ACH x Space Volume ÷ 60 - Eqn. (16)
where:
ACH = Air changes per hour
= 0.3 (TRANE Cooling & Heating Load Estimation, TRG- RC002-EN, Table 9 – Estimates of Infiltration Airflow

Applying the value from Eqn. (16),
Then, Calculating for Sensible heat gain due to infiltration,
qsi = 1.08 x Aiflow x TDi
qsi = 1.08 (Btu-min/hr-ft³-°F) x Airflow (ft³/min) x TDi(°F) = Btu/hr - Eqn. (15)

Latent Heat Gain due to Infiltration


Using the Air Change Method (ACH), the equation used to estimate the latent heat gain from infiltration is:
qli = 0.7 x Airflow x Δwi - Eqn. (17)
where:
qli = Latent heat gain due to infiltration, Btu/hr
= 0.7 Latent heat factor
Product of density and Latent heat of water vapor of air at standard conditions (69 °F dry air at sea level)
= 0.075 lb/ft³ x 1,076 Btu/lb x 60 min/hr ÷ 7000 grains/lb
= 0.7 Btu-min-lb/hr-ft³-gr
Density of air = 0.075 lb/ft³
Latent heat of water vapour = 1,076 Btu/lb
Conversion factors: 60 min per hour

Airflow = Quantity of air infiltrating the space, ft³/min(Follow the same formula of Eqn. 16 and apply the correspond
Airflow = ACH x Space Volume ÷ 60 - Eqn. (16)
ΔWi = Dgrains of water/lb of dry air

= 44 grains of water/lb of dry air (Using Psychometric Chart to determine the
humidity ratio for both outdoor and indoor conditions)
Outside Design Temperatures: (Summer)
Dry Bulb Temperature = 113°F
Wet Bulb Temperature = 66°F
Inside Design Temperatures: (Summer)
Dry Bulb = 75°F
Relative Humidity= 50%
The result will be:
Wo = 21 grains of water/lb of dry air
Wi = 65 grains of water/lb of dry air
Applying the value from Eqn. (16) and the corresponding Difference of humidity ratios,
Then, Calculating for Latent heat gain due to infiltration,
qli= 0.7 x Airflow x Δwi, -Eqn. (17)
qli= 0.7(Btu-min-lb/hr-ft³-gr) x Airflow(ft³/min) x ΔWi(grains/lb) = Btu/hr

Latent Heat Gain due to Ventilation


The latent heat gain from ventilation is calculated using the same equation as for infiltration:
qlv = 0.7 x Airflow x ΔWv - Eqn. (19)
where:
qlv = Latent heat gain due to ventilation, Btu/hr
0.7 = Latent heat factor, Btu-min-lb/hr-ft³-gr
Airflow=ventilation airflow, ft³/min (GRP 158 2nd Edition, Outdoor Air Requirements for Ventilation)
= (Same values As Sensible heat due to ventilation)
ΔWv= Design outdoor air humidity ratio minus the Design
indoor air humidity ratio, grains of water/lb of dry air
= (Wo - Wi)
= 21 – 65
= 44 grains of water/lb of dry air

Calculating for Sensible heat gain due to ventilation,


qlv = 0.7 x Airflow x ΔWv - Eqn. (19)
qlv= 0.7 (Btu-min-lb/hr-ft³-gr) x Airflow(ft³/min) x ΔWi(grains/lb) = Btu/hr

Other sources of heat gain within the HVAC System are fan, driven by an electric motor, and located in conditioned airstream,
it adds heat to the air. The author justifiably introduces a safety factor of 3 % to the total coil cooling load of this project to

9. Supply Airflow
To determine the supply airflow, the following equation must be used:
Supply Airflow = Sensible Heat Gain n
1.08 x (Indoor Air DB – Supply Air DB) - Eqn. (21)
where: Supply Airflow = The total quantity of air required to offset the space sensible heat gain, cfm
1.08 = Product of air density and specific heat at standard condition, Btu-min/hr-ft³-°F
Indoor Air DB = Design space dry-bulb temperature, °F = 75 °F
Supply Air DB = Supply air dry-bulb temperature, °F = Tc + Tf
Where : Tc = Coil Leaving Temp = 55 °F (Normal)
Tf = Temp. rise across draw-thru fan
= 2.2 °F (from table D.3 Air Temp. Rise Due to Fans, of ASHRAE GRP 158 2nd Edition. Assume Fan static Pressur
= Supply Air Temperature = 55 + 2.2 = 57.2°F

Cooling Coil Load Calculation

PACU-1 & 2 Cooling Coil Load Calculation Solving for Mixed Air Properties from:
TOTAL COOLING COIL LOAD:
QCC= m (h3-h4) m1h1 + m2h2 = m3h3
Where:
m = 60 x cfm/ v4 m1t1 + m2t2 = m3t3
= 60 x 21,936 cfm
14.16702 cu. Ft. / lb m1w1+ m2w2 = m3w3
= 92,903.09 lb/hr
h4 at pt. 4 = 23.6156 Btu/lb Solving for m1:

m1 = 60 x cfm1/v1

= 60 x 1,163 cfm
15.62363 cu. Ft./lb

= 4,466.31 lb/hr

Solving for h3:


h3 = (m1h1 + m2h2)
m3
= (4,466.31 lb/hr x 31.5535 Btu/lb) + (84,644.31 lb/hr x 28.8799 Btu/lb)
89,110.62 lb/hr
= 29.0139 Btu/lb
Solving for Qcc: Total Cooling Coil Load
Qcc = m (h3-h4)
= 92,903.09 lb/hr (29.0139 – 23.6156) Btu/lb
= 501,518.75 Btu/hr or
