 CALCULATIONS FOR THE CAPACITY OF AIR
CONDITIONING SYSTEM

• VOLUME X 6 BTU /HR =TOTAL HEAT C1

• NO OF PEOPLE X500 BTU = TOTAL HEAT C2
• (C1+C2)/ 12000 BTU = CAPACITY OF A. C. PLANT IN R. T.
( REFRIGIRATION TON)
• 1 R. T. = 12000 BTU
 CALCULATIONS FOR THE REQUIREMENT OF AREA FOR
CHILLED WATER A. C. PLANT

• TOTAL AREA REQUIRED =5.00 SQ. M. + 0.5 SQ. M. X TOTAL TONNAGE

OF A. C. SYSTEM

• A. H. U. AREA REQUIREMENT = 3% OF THE AREA TO BE

AIRCONDITIONED
• MINIMUM SIZE OF AHU = 30.00 SQ. M.
• 1 AHU NORMALLY SHOULD NOT SERVE MORE THAN 1000 SQ. M.
• AREA OF COOLING TOWER = 3% OF THE AREA TO BE
AIRCONDITIONED
