Chapter 4

1) The total cooling load due to occupants:

˙
Qocc.=n ¿

n : is the number of occupants inside the air-conditioned space.

˙ ˙
The sensible q senand latent q Lat heat gain rate values due to occupants
and (CLF)occ Were given in Table (4-2) and Table (4-3).

2) Volumetric flow rates of ventilation air :

˙
V =Lit /s per person× n

Lit/s per person: Minimum outside fresh air requirements for mechanical
ventilation from table (4.6) a .
n : is the number of occupants inside the air-conditioned space.

3) Mass flow rates of ventilation air :

˙ ˙
m o=V o /v o
˙
V : is the volumetric flow rates of ventilation air.
v o: is the specific volume for outside.

4) Sensible and latent heat load due to occupants :

˙
Q occ,sens =n ¿
˙ ˙
Q occ,Lat =n(q Lat )
˙ ˙ ˙
Q sens ,tot =q sens .¿ other ¿+q occ,sen s

5) The mass flow rate of supply air :

˙ ˙
Q sens , tot =ms C p (T i−T s )
6) The volume flow rate of supply air :

˙ ˙
V s =ms ×v s

v s The supply air state (s) is located on the psychrometric chart by the intersection of
the parallel SHR line that passes through the given inside design conditions .

7) Sensible heat ratio :

˙
Qsens ,tot
SHR= ˙ ˙
Q sens ,tot + QL

8) Ventilation Air For Spaces Producing Contaminants :

˙
˙
F
V=
C i−C 0

V̇ : is the ventilation air rate of flow that must be supplied to the space for each
produced contaminant m3/h .
Ci : is the threshold limit value TLV for inside concentration , from Table (4-7).
Co : is its outside concentration from Table (4-7).
Ḟ : is the contaminant rate generated inside the space.

9) The number of air change per hour :
