The document provides calculations for heating a 357 cubic meter Olympic-sized swimming pool. The pool has a surface area of 250 square meters. The ambient temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, the initial pool temperature is 21 degrees Celsius, and the desired temperature is 28 degrees Celsius over a 24 hour heat-up period. The required energy to heat the pool is 2906 kW. With a heat loss of 240 kW from the pool surface, the total heating capacity required per hour is 361 kW. A single 350 kW Rheem heat pump water heater will provide sufficient heating capacity.

Olympic Size Swimming Pool
Pool Volume - Part 1 (Rectangle) Pool Volume (Part 2 - 1:2 Gradient) Pool Volume (Part 3 - Rectangle) 3 Total pool volume: 357 m
Pool Surface Area
Pool surface area: 250 m2
Pool Information & Condition in ASEAN Contries
Average ambient temperature o 20 C of the coldest month of use: o Pool Initial temperature (80% RH): 21 C o Desired pool temperature: 28 C Required pool heat-up time: 24 hours
Total Heating Capacity Required
Required energy to heating up pool: 2906 kW
Pool heat-up rate per hour: 121 kW
Heat loss from pool surface*: 240 kW Heating capacity required per hour: 361 kW * Based on 2003 ASHRAE Application Handbook, for non-sheltered pool assume a wind velocity of more than 16 km/h, hence 200% of the calculated heat loss is applied.
Total heating capacity required: 361 kW
Equipment Sizing
Equipment's brand / model: Rheem Thermal Air to Water Heat Pump Water Heater, RTHP350-3
Nominal heating capacity: 350 kW (each)
No. of equipment: 1 nos Total heating capacity: 350 kW > 361 kW (Total heating capacity required)
