To perform this function, equipment of the proper capacity must be installed and controlled throughout the year. The equipment wacity is determined by the actual instantaneous peak load requirements; type of control is deter mined by the conditions to be maintained during peak and partial load, Generally, it is impossible to measure either the actual peak or che partial load in any given space; these loads must be estimated. It is for this purpose that the data contained in Part Thas been compiled, Before the load can be estimated, it is impera: survey be made to assure tive that @ comprehens ecurate evaluation of the load components. I the ntancous load, building facilities and che actual ins within 2 given mass of the building are carefully studied, an economical equipment selection and sys tem design can result, and smooth, trouble free per formance is then possible. ‘The heat gain or loss is the amount of heat in- stantaneously coming into or going out of the space. The actual load is defined as that amount of heat which is instantaneously added or removed by the iment. The instantaneous heat gain and the actual load on the equipment will rarely be equal, because of the thermal inertia or storage effect of the building structures surrounding a conditioned space Chapters 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 contain the data from which the instantaneous heat gain or loss is esti: mated. Chapter 3 provides the data and procedure lor applying storage actors to the appropriate heat gains to result in the actual load, Chapter 8 provides the bridge between the load estimate and the equip: ment selection, It furnishes the procedure for estab- ishing the eriteria to fulfill the conditions required by a given project. The basis of the data and its use, with examples, are included in each chapter with the tables and charts; also an explanation of how each of the heat gains and the loads manifest themselves. CHAPTER 1. BUILDING SURVEY AND LOAD ESTIMATE BUILDING SURVEY SPACE CHARACTERISTICS AND HEAT LOAD SOURCES An accurate survey of the load components of the space to be air conditioned! is a basic requirement lor a realistic estimate of cuoling and heating loads. ‘of Ug survey is the The completeness an acrwva' ery foundation of the e:tinate, aud its importance can not be overemphasized.

Motors — Location, nameplate and brake horsepower, and usage, ‘The latter is of great significance and should be carefully evalu ated. The power input to electric motors is not necessarily equal to the rated! horsepower di vided by the motor efficiency. Frequently these motors may be operating under a continuous overload, ar may be operating at less than rated capacity. It is always advisable to meas ure the power input wherever possible. This is especially important in estimates for indus- tia] installations where the motor machine load is normally a major portion of the cool ing load, Appliances, business machines, electronic equipment — Location, rated wattage, steam or gas consumption, hooded or unhooded, ex haust air quantity installed or required, and usage. Greater accuracy may be obtained by measur- ing the power or gas input during times of peak loading. The regular service meters may often be used for this purpose, provided power or gas consumption not contributing to the room heat gain can be segregated. Avoid pyramiding the heat gains from various appliances and business machines. For exam. ple, a toaster or a watfle iron may not be used uring the evening, or the fry kettle may not be used during morning, or not alt business ET CET PART 1. LOAD ESTIMATING machines in a given space may be used at the same time. Electronic equipment often requires individ. ual air conditioning. The manufacturer's recommendation for temperature and humid- ity variation must be followed, and these re- quirements are often quite stringent, 15, Ventilation — Clim per person, cfm per sq ft, scheduled ventilation (agreement with pur chaser), see Chapter 6. Excessive smoking or odors, code requirements. Exhaust fans—type, size, speed, chin delivery. 16.

AIR CONDITIONING LOAD ESTIMATE ‘The air conditioning load is estimated to provide the basis for selecting the conditioning equipment. It must take into account the heat coming into the space from outdoors on a design day, as well as the heat being generated within the space. A design day is defined as: 1. Aday on which the dry- and wetbulb tempera tures are peaking simultaneously (Chapter 2, ‘Design Conditions”. 2, A day when there is little or no haze in the air to reduce the solar heat (Chapter 4, "Solar Heat Gain Thru Glass"). 8. All of the internal loads are normal (Chapter 7, “Internal and System Heat Gain”) ‘The time of peak load can usually be established hy inspection, although, in some cases, estimates must be made for several different times of the day. ‘Actually, the situation of having all of the loads peaking at the same time will very rarely occur. To be realistic, various diversity factors must be applied ED 11 conattioniog Company to some of the load components: refer to Chapter 3, “Heat Storage, Diversity, and Stratification.” ‘The infiltration and ventilation air quantities are estimated as described in Chapter 6. Fig. 1 illustrates an air conditioning load estimate form and is designed to permit systematic load eval uation. This form contains the referenecs identified to the particular chaptersof data and tables required to estimate the various lozd components. ‘OUTDOOR LOADS ‘The loads from outdoo's consist of: 1. The sun rays entering windows — Table 15, pages 44-49, and Table 16, page 52, provide data from which the solar heat gain through glass is estinnated. The solar heat gain is usually reduced by means of shading devices on the inside or out- side of the windows; factors are contained in Table 16. In addition to this reduction, all or part of the window may be shaded by reveals, overhangs, and by adjacent buildings. Chart 1, page 57, and Table 18, page 58, provide an easy means of determining how much the window is shaded at a given time, A large portion of the solar heat gain is radiant and will be partially stored as described in Chapter 3. Tables 7 thru 11, pages 30-34, pro- vide the storage factors to be applied to solar heat gains in order to arrive at the actual cooling load imposed on the air conditioning equipment. These s:orage factors are applied to peak solar heat gains obtained from Table 6, page 29, with overall factors from Table 16, page 52. 2 The sun rays striking the walls and roof — These, in conjunction with the high outdoor air temperature, cause heat to flow into the space. Tables 19 and 20, pages 62 and 63, pro- vide equivalent temperature differences for sunlit and shaded walls and roofs, Tables 21, , 23, 24, 25, 27, and 28, pages 66-72, provide the transmission coefficients or rates of heat flow for avariety of roof and wall constructions. 3. The aiv temperature outside the conditioned space — A higher ambient temperature causes hheat to flow thru tae windows, partitions, and. floors. Tables 25 and 26, pages 69 and 70, and Tables 29 and 30, pages 73 and 74, provide the transmission coefficients, The temperature differences used to estimate the heat flow thru these structures are contained in the notes after each table. a PART 1.

Normally they rellect slightly less than ordinary glass because part of the rellection takes place on the inside surface \ portion of heat reflected from the inside surface js absorbed in passing back through the glass. The vera effcet, however, is to reduce the solar heat feain to the conditioned space as shown in Fig. 15, (Reler to Hem 8, page 51. for absorptivity, reflec tivity and transmissibility of common types of glass at 40° angle of incidence.)

This multiplier (78) is tised with Table 15 to decermine the solar heat gain thru 52%, heat absorbing gless. Multipliers for vari ‘ous types of glass are listed in Table 16.

This is not 1.47 as nor- mally used, since the present practice in well designed systems is to sweep the window with a stream of air 4. A 80° angle of incidence which is the angle au which most exposures peak. The 30° angle of incidence is approximately the balance point of solar heat though the atmosphere and the decreased transmissibility of glass. Above the 30: the transmissibility. of glass decreases, below the 30° angle the atmosphere absorbs fon reduction coming angle or reflects more. All shading devices fully drawn, except roller shades. Experience indicates that roller shacles are seldom fully drawn, so the factors have been slightly increased. 45° 5.

HEAT AND WATER VAPOR FLOW THRU STRUCTURES This chapter presents the methods and data for determining the sensible and latent heat gain or loss thru the outdoor structures of a building or thru a structure strounding a space within the building. Ivalso presents data for determining and preventing ‘water Vapor condensation on che enclosure surfaces or within the structure materials. Heat flows from one point to another whenever a temperature difference exists between the two points; the direction of flow is always towards the loner tem- perature, Water vapor also flows from one point to another whenever a difference in vapor pressure exists between the two points; the direction of flow is towards the point of low vapor pressure. The rate at which the heat or water vapor will flow varies with the resistance to flow between the two points in the material, I the cemperature and vapor pressure of the water vapor correspond to saturation conditions at any point, condensation occurs, HEAT FLOW THRU BUILDING STRUCTURES, Heat gain thyu the exterior construction (walls and sof) is normally calculated at the time of greatest heat flow. Tt is caused by solar heat being absorbed at the exterior surface and by the tem perature difference between the outdoor and indoor air. Both heat sources are highly variable thruout any one day and, therefore, result in unsteady state hheat flow thru the exterior construction, This un steady state flow is difficult to evaluate for each in- dividual situation; however, it can be handled best by means of an equivalent temperature difference across the structure, The equivalent temperature difference is that tem: perature difference which results in the total heat flow thru the structure as caused by the variable solar radiation and outdoor temperature. The equiv alent temperature difference across the structure must take into account the different types of con: struction and exposures, time of day, location of the Duilding (latitude), and design conditions. The heat flow thru the structure may then be calculated, using. the steady state heat flow equation with the equiv- alent temperature difference, q=UASt, where = heat flow, Bu/hr U = transmission coefficient, Beu/ (hr)(sq 2) deg F temp diff) A =area of surlace, sq ft A, = equiv temp diff F Heat loss thru the exterior construction (walls and roof) is normally calculated at the time of greatest heat flow. This occurs early in the morning after 2 few hours of very low outdoor cemperatures. This approaches steady state heat flow conditions, and for all practical purposes may be assumed as such. Heat flow thru the interior construction (floors, ceilings and partitions) is caused by a difference in temperature of the air on both sides of the structure ‘This temperature difference is essentially constant thruout the day and, therefore, the heat flow can be determined from the steacy state heat flow equation, using the actual temperatures on either side. EQUIVALENT TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE — SUNLIT AND SHADED WALLS AND ROOFS “The process of transferring heat thru a wall under indicated unsteady state conditions may be visu- alized by picturing a T2-inch brick wall sliced into 12 one:inch sections, Assume that temperatures in each slice ave all equal at the beginning, and that the indoor and outdoor temperatures remain constant When the sun shines on this wall, most of thesolar heat is absorbed in the first slice, Fig. 22. This raises the temperature of the frst slice above that of the outdoor air and the secend slice, causing heat to flow to the outdoor air ard also to the second slice, Fig. 23. The amount of heat flowing in either direc tion depends on the resistance to heat flow within the wall and thru the outdoor air film. The heat flow into the second slice, in turn, raises its temperature, causing heat to flow into the third slice, Fig. 24. ‘This process of absorbing heat and passing some on to the next slice continues thru the wall to the last or 12th slice where the reraining heat is transferred to the inside by convection and radiation.

A rise in outdoor temperature reduces the amount of absorbed heat going to the outdoors and more flows thru the wall. ‘This same process occurs with any type of wall construction to a greater or lesser degree, depending on the resistance to heat flow thru the wall and the thermal capacity of the wall. oy Bi CHAPTER 5. HEAT AND WATER VAPOR FLOW THRU STRUCTURES 161 NOTE: The thermal capacity of a wall or roof is the density of the material in the wall or roof, times the specific heat of the material, times the volume, This progression of heat gain to the interior may occur over the full 24hour period, and may result in a heat gain to the space during the night, If the equipment is operated less than 24 hours, Le. either skipping the peak load requirement or as a routine procedure, the nighttime radiation to the sky and the lowering of the outdoor temperature may de- crease the transmission gain and often may reverse it, Therefore, the heat gain estimate (sun and trans- mission thru the roof and outdoor walls), even with equipment operating less than 24 hows, may be evaluated by the use of the equivalent temperature data presented in Tables 19 and 20. Basis of Tables 19 and 20 = Equivalent Temperature Difference for Sunlit and Shaded Walle and Roofs Tables 19 and 20 are analogue computer calcula: tions using Schmidr’s method based on the following conditions: 1.

The specific heat of most construction materials is approximately 0.20 Beu/(Ib)(deg F); the thermal capacity of typical walls or roofs is proportional to the weight per sq ft; this permits easy interpolation, Use of Tables 19 and 20 —Equivelent Temperature Difference for Sunlit and Shaded Walls and Roofs ‘The equivalent temperature differences in Tables 19 and 20 are multiplied by the transmission coeff cients listed in Tables 21 thru 33 to determine the heat gain thru walls and roofs per sq ft of area dur ing the summer. The total weight per sq ft of walls and roofs is obtained by adding the weights per sq ft of cach component of a given structure, These weights are shown in italics and parentheses in Tables 21 thru 33.

HEAT AND WATER VAPOR FLOW THRU STRUCTURES Lst HEAT LOSS THRU BASEMENT WALLS AND FLOORS BELOW THE GROUND LEVEL ‘The loss through the floor is normally small and relatively constant year round because the ground temperature under the floor varies only a litdle throughout the year. The ground is a very good heat sink and can absorb or lose a large amount of heat without an appreciable change in temperature at about the 8 ft level. Above the 8 ft level, the ground temperature varies with the outdoor temperature, with the greatest variation at the surface and a de. creasing variation down to the 8 ft depth. The heat loss thru a basement wall may be appreciable and it is difficult to calculate because the ground tempera- ture varies with depth. Tables 35 thru 37 have been empirically calculated to simplify the evaluation of hheat loss thru basement walls and floors. ‘The heat loss thru a slab floor is large around the perimeter and small in the center. This is be- cause the ground temperature around the perimeter varies with the outdoor temperature, whereas the {ground temperature in the middle remains relatively constant, as with basement floors. Bosis of Tables 35 thru 37 — Heat Loss thru Masonry Floors and Walls in Ground Tables 35 thru 37 are based on empirical data. The perimeter factors listed in Table 36 were devel- oped by calculating the heat transmitted for each foot of wall to an 8 ft depth. The ground was assumed to decrease the transmission coefficient, thus adding resistance between the wall and the outdoor air, The transmission coefficients were then added to arrive at the perimeter factors. Use of Tables 35 thru 37 —Hoot Loss thru Masonry Floors and Walls in Ground The transmission coefticients listed in Table 35 may be used for any thickness of uninsulated ma: sonry floors where there is good contact between the floor and the ground. ‘The perimeter factors listed in Table 36 are used for estimating heat loss thru basement walls and the ‘outside strip of basement floors. This factor can be used only when the space is heated continuously. If there is only occasional heating, calculate the heat loss using the wall or floor transmission coefficients as listed in Tables 21 thru 33 and the temperature difference between the basement and outdoor air or ground as listed in Table 37. ‘The heat loss in a basement is determined by add- ing the heat transferred thru the floor, the walls and the outside strip of the floor and the portion of the wall above the ground level.

Table 39 is for pipes in water or brine based on a heat wansfer of 18 Bru/(hr)(sq ft external pipe sur face) (deg F) in water, 14 Btu in brine. It is also based fon a low rate of circulation on the outside of the pipe and 10 F to 15 F temperature difference be- ween water or brine and refrigerant. High rates of circulation will increase the heat transfer rate. For special problems, consult heat transfer reference books.

The latent load from this source is usually insignificant in comfort applications and need be considered only in low or high dewpoint applications. Water vapor flows from high to lower vapor pres- sure ata rate determined by the permeability of the structure. This process is quite similar to heat flow, except that there is cransfer of mass with water vapor flow. As heat flow can be reduced by adding insulation, vapor flow can be reduced by vapor bar- riers. The vapor barrier may be paint (aluminum or asphalt), aluminum foil or galvanized iron. It should always be placed on the side of a structure having the higher vapor pressure, to prevent the water vapor from flowing up to the barrier and con densing within the wall. Basis of Table 40 — Water Vapor Transmission thru Various Materials ‘The values for walls, floors, ceilings and partitions have been estimated from the source references listed in the bibliography. The resistance of a homogene- fous material to water vapor transmission has been assumed to be directly proportional to the thickness, and it also has been assumed that there is no surface resistance to water vapor flow, The values for per- meability of miscellaneous materials are based on test results, NOTE: Some of the values for walls, roofs, etc, have been increased by 2 safety factor be- cause conclusive data is not available, Use of Table 40 — Water Vapor Transmission thru Various Materials Table 40 is used to determine latent heat gain from water vapor transmission thru building struc tures in the high and low dewpoint applications where the air moisture content must be maintained.

As water vapor flows thru the structure, its tem. perature decreases and, if at any point it reaches the dewpoint or saturation temperature, condensa- tion begins. As condensation occurs, the vapor pres- sure decreases, thereby lowering the dewpoint or saturation temperature until it corresponds to the actual temperature, The rate at which condensation occurs is determined by the rate at which heat is re moved from the point of condensation. As the vapor continues to condense, latent heat of condensation is released, causing the dry-bulb temperature of the material to rise. To illustrate this, assume a frame wall with wood sheathing and shingles on the outside, plasterboard on the inside and fibrous insulation between the tivo. Also, assume that the inside conditions are 75 F db and 50% rh and the outdoor conditions are 0°F ab and 80% rh. Refer to Fig. 28. ‘The temperature and vapor pressure gradient decreases approximately as shown by the solid and dashed lines until condensation begins (saturation point). Ac this point, the latent heat of condensation decreases the rate of temperature drop thru the in- sulation, This is approximately indicated by the dotted line. Another cause of concealed condensation may be evaporation of water from the ground or damp loca tions, This water vapor may condense on the under: side of the floor joints (usually near the edges where wooo suearione 7 _imae rere PART 1, LOAD ESTIMATING it is coldest) or may flow up thru the outdoor side of the walls because of stack effect and/or vapor pressure differences. Concealed condensation may cause wood, iron and brickwork to deteriorate and insulation to lose its insulating value. These effects may be corrected by the following methods: 1. Provide vapor barriers an the high vapor pres- sure side. 2. In winter, ventilate the building to reduce the vapor pressure within. No great volume of air change is necessary, and normal infilwation alone is frequently all that is required. 3. In winter, ventilate the structure cavities to remove vapor that has entered. Outdoor air thru vents shielded from entrance of rain and insects may be used. Condensation may also form on the surface of a building structure. Visible condensation occurs when the surface of any material is colder than the dew: point temperature of the surrounding air. In winter, the condensation may collect on cold closet walls and attic roofs and is commonly observed as frost on window panes. Fig. 29 illustrates the condensation on a window with inside winter design conditions of 70 F db and 40% rh, Point A represents the room, conditions; point B, the dewpoint temperature of the thin film of water vapor adjacent to the window surface: and point C, the point at which frost or ice appears on the window. Once the temperature drops below the dewpoint, the vapor pressure at the window surface is also re duced, thereby establ shing a gradient of vapor pres: sure from the room air to the window surface, This gradient operates, in conjunction with the convec- Fic, 28 ~ Convensarion Wrtmin Frame WALL CHAPTER 5.

Visible condensation is objectionable as it causes staining of surfaces, dripping on machinery and furnishings, and damage to materials in process of manufacture, Condensation of this type may be cor- rected by the following methods: 1. Increase the thermal resistance of walls, roofs and floors by adding insulation with vapor barriers to prevent condensation within the structures, 2 Increase the thermal resistance of glass by in- stalling two or three panes with air space(s) between. In extreme cases, controlled heat, electric or other, may be applied between the glass of double glazed windows, 8. Maintain a room dewpoint lower than the low. est expected surface temperature in the room, 4. Decrease surface resistance by increasing the velocity of air passing over the surface.

These outdoor air quantities nor mally have a different heat content than the air within the conditioned space and, therefore, impose a load on the air conditioning equipment. In the case of infiltration, the load manifests itself directly within the conditioned space. The ventila: tion air, taken thru the conditioning apparatus, imposes a load both on the space thru apparatus bypass effect, and directly on the conditioning equipment, ‘The data in this chapter is based! on ASHAE tests and years of practical experience, INFILTRATION Infiltration of air and particularly moisture into a conditioned space is frequently a source of sizable heat gain or loss. The quantity of infiltration air varies according to tightness of doors and windows, porosity of the building shell, height of the build: ing, stairwells, elevators, direction and velocity of wind, and the amount of ventilation and exhaust air, Many of these cannot be accurately evaluated and must be based on the judgment of the estimator. Generally, infiltration may be caused by wind velocity, or stack effort, oF both: 1. Wind Velocity ~The wind velocity builds up a pressure on the windward side of the building and a slight vacuum on the leeward side, The outdoor pressure build-up causes air to infil: trate thru crevices in the construction and cracks around the windows and doors. This, in turn, causes a slight build-up of pressure inside the building, resulting in an equal amount of exfiltration on the leeward side. Difference in Density or Stack Effect — The variations in temperatures and humidities pro- duce differences in density of air between inside and outside of the building. In «all buildings this density difference causes summer and win= ter infiltration and exfleration as follows: Summer ~ Inflation at the top and exfl- tration at the bottom. Winter ~ Infiltration at the bottom and exfiltration at the top. ‘This opposite direction flow balances at some neutral point near the mid-height of the build- ing. Air flow thru the building openings in ‘eases proportionately between the neutral point and the top and the neutral point and bottom of the building, The infiltration from stack effect is greatly influenced by the height of the building and the presence of open stair- ways and elevators ‘The combined infiltration from wind velocity and stack effect is proportional to the square root of the sum of the heads acting on it. ‘The increased air infilwation Row caused by stack effect is evaluated by converting the stack effect force to an equivalent wind velocity, and then calcu: lating the flow from the wind velocity data in the ables, In buildings over 100 fc tall, the equivalent wind velocity may be calculated from-the following for mula, assuming a temperature difference of 70 F db (winter) and @ neutral point at the mid-height of the building: VOR Te (for upper section of tall bldgs — winter) (1) (for lower section of tall bidgs — winter) @) where V,= equivalent wind velocity, mph V = wind veloci:y normally calculated for location, mph EVIE a= distance wirdow is above mid height, f¢ b= distance window is below mid- height, f NOTE: The total crackage is considered when calculating infiltration from stack effect. INFILTRATION THRU WINDOWS AND DOORS, SUMMER Infiltration during the summer is caused primarily by the wind velocity creating a pressure on the wind- ward side. Stack effec is not normally 2 significant factor because the density difference is slight, (0.073 Thjeu ft at 75 F db, 50% rh and 0.070 Ibjeu fe at 95 F db, 75 F wb). This small stack effect in tall buildings (over 100 ft) causes air to fiow in the top and out the bottom, Therefore, the air inflerating in the wp of the building, because of the wind 1-90 pressure, tends to flow down thru the building and fut the doors on the street level, thereby offsecting some of the infiltration thru them. In Jow buildings, air infiltrates chru open doors ‘on the windward side unless sufficient outdoor air is introduced thru the air conditioning equipment to offset it; refer to “Offsetting Infiltration with Out door Aix” With doors on opposite walls, the infiltration can be considerable if the two are open at the same time. Besis of Table 41 “Infiltration thru Windows and Doors, Summer The data in Tables 41a, b and ¢ is based on a wind velocity of 7.5 mph blowing directly at the window or door, and on observed crack widths around typical windows and doors, This data is derived from Table #4 which lists infiltration thru cracks around windows and doors as established by ASHAE tests. Table 41d shows values to be used for doors on opposite walls for various percentages of time that each door is open. The data in Table #7e is based on actual tests of typical applications, PART 1. LOAD ESTIMATING Use of Table 41 Infiltration thru Windows and Doors, Summer ‘The data in Table 41 is used to determine the infiltration thru windows and doors on the wind- ward side with the wind blowing directly at them. When the wind direction is oblique to the windows or doors, multiply the values in Tables 41a, 6, ¢, d, by 0.60 and apply to total areas. For specific loca- tions, adjust the values in Table #1 to the design wind velocity; refer to Table 1, page 10. During the summer, infiltration is calculated for the windward side(s) only, because stack effect is small and, there‘ore, causes the infiltration air to flow in a downward direction in tall buildings (over 100 ft). Some of the air infiltrating thru th windows will exfitrate thra the windows on th Ieeward side(s), while the remaining infiltration air flows out the doors, thus offsetting some of the infil. tration thru the doors. To determine the net infl- tration thru the doors, determine the infiltration, thru the windows on the windward side, multiply this by .80, and subtract from the door infiltration, For low buildings the door infiltation on the wind: ward side should be included in the estimate.

Therefore, there & no infiltration thew the doors on the erect level on design days, only exfitration, 0,200 fen (Table 420) 3640 cfm (Table $1c) COFFSETTING INFILTRATION WITH OUTDOOR AIR, SUMMER Completely offsetting infiltration by the introduc tion of outdoor air thru the air conditioning appara- tus is normally uneconomical except in buildings with few windows and doors, The outdoor air so inoduced must develop a pressure equal to the wind velocity to offset infiltration, This pressure causes exfiltration thru the leeward walls at a rate equal 10 wind velocity. Therefore, in a four sided building with equal crack areas on each side and the wind blowing against one side, the amount of ‘outdoor air introduced thru the apparatus must be a little more than three times the amount that infil vats, Where the wind is blowing against two sides, the outdoor air must be a little more than equal to that which infiltrates, Offsetting swinging door infiltration is not quite as dificult because air takes the path of least resist: ance, normally an open door. Most of the outdoor air introduced thru the apparatus flows out the door ‘when it is opened. Also, in tall buildings the window infiltration tends to flow out the door. The infiltration thru revolving doors is caused by displacement of the air in the door quadrants, is almost independent of wind velocity and, therefore, cannot be offset by outdoor air, Basis of Table 42 = Offtetting Swinging Door Infiltration with Outdoor Air, Summer Some of the outdcor air introduced thru the ap- paratus exfiltrates thru the cracks around the win- dows and in the construction on the leeward side. ‘The outdoor air values have been increased by this amount for typical application as a result of ex: perience. Use of Table 42 ~ Offsetting Swinging Door Infiltration with Outdoor Air, Summer Table 42 is used to determine the amount of out. door air thru air conditioning apparatus required to offset infiltration taru swinging doors.

INFILTRATION AND VENTILATION INFILTRATION THRU WINDOWS AND DOORS, WINTER Infiltration thru windows and doors during the winter is caused by the wind velocity and also stack offect, The temperature differences during the win- ter are considerably greater than in summer and, therefore, the density difference is greater; at 75 F db and 30% th, densiey is 0788; at O°F db, 40% rh, density is 0865. Stack effect causes air to flow in at the bottom and out at the top, and in many cases requires spot heating at the doors on the street level to maintain conditions. In applications where there js considerable infiltration on the street level, much of the infiltration thru the windows in the upper levels will be offset Basis of Toble 43 infliction thre Windows and Doors, Winter ‘The data in Table 43 is based on a wind velocity of 15 mph blowing directly at the window or door and on observed crack widths around typical win- dows and doors, The infiltration thru these cracks is calculated from Table 44 which is based on ASHAE tests, Use of Table 43 = Infiltration they Windows and Doors, Winter Table 43 is used to determine the infiltration of air thru windows and doors on the windward side during the winter, The stack effect in tall buildings increases the infiltration thru the doors and windows on the lower levels and decreases it on the upper levels. Therefore, whenever the door infiltration is increased, the infiltration thru the upper levels must bbe decreased by 80% of the net increase in door infileration, The infiltration from stack effect on the leeward sides of the building is determined by using. the difference between the equivalent velocity (V.,) and the actual velocity (P) as outlined in Example 3. ‘The data in Table 43 is based on the wind blowing directly at the windows and doors. When the wind direction is oblique to the windows and doors, mult ply the values by 0.60 and use the total window and door area on the windward sides. Example 3— Infiltration in Tall Buildings, Winter Given ‘The building described in Example 1 Find: “The infiltration hr the doors and windows Solution “The prevailing wind in New York City during the winter is NW at 168 mph (Table !, page JO) 1-93 Correction on Table 43 for wind velocity is 168/18 = 1.12. Since the wind is coming from the Northwest, the crackage fon the north and west sides will allow infiltration but the wind is only 6% effective.

People give off body odors which require a mini- mum of 5 cfm pel person for satisfactory dilution. Seven and one half cfm per person is recommended. This is based on @ population density of 50 to 75 sq ft per person and a typical ceiling height of 8 tt With greater population densities, the ventilation quantity should be increased. When people smoke, the additional odors given off by cigarettes or cigars require a minimum of 15 to 25 lm per person. In special gathering rooms with heavy smoking, 80 to 50 cfm per person is recommended, Basis of Table 45 Ventilation Standards ‘The data in Table 45 is based on test observation of the clean outdoor air required to maintain satis: factory odor levels with people smoking and not smoking, These test results were then extrapolated for typical concentrations of people, both smoking and not smoking, for the applications listed. Use of Toble 45 —Ventilation Standards Table 45 is used to determine the minimum and recommended ventilation ait quantity for the listed applications. In applications where the minimum values are used and the minimum cfm per person and efm per sq ft of floor area are listed, use the larger minimum quzntity. Where the crowd density ig greater than normal or where better than satis: factory conditions are desired, use the recommended values, SCHEDULED VENTILATION In comfort applications, where local codes permit, it is possible to reduce the capacity requirements of the installed equipment by reducing the ventilation air quantity at the time of peak load. This quantity can be reduced at times of peak to, in effect, mini mize the outdoor air load. At times other than peak oad, the calculated outdoor air quantity is used. , Scheduled ventilation is recommended only for in: stallations operating more than 12 hours or 3 hours longer than occupancy, to allow some time for fush ing out the building when no odors are being gen- erated. It has been found, by tests, that few com: plaints of stuffiness are encountered when the out door air quantity is reduced for short periods of time, provided the fushing period is available. It is recommended that the outdoor air quantity be re- duced to no less than 40% of the recommended quantity as listed in Table 45, ‘The procedure for estimating and controlling scheduled ventilation is as follows 1, In estimating the cooling load, reduce the air quantity at des'gn conditions to a minimum of 40% of the recommended air quantity 2 Use a dry-bulb thermostat following the cool- ing and dehumidifying apparatus to control the leaving dewpoint such that: aati —_ CHAPTER 6.

INTERNAL AND SYSTEM HEAT GAIN INTERNAL HEAT GAIN Internal heat gain is the sensible and Jatent heat released within the air conditioned space by the occupants, lights, appliances, machines, pipes, etc. ‘This chapter outlines the procedures for determin: ing the instantaneous heat gain from these sources. A portion of the heat gain from internal sources is radiant heat which is partially absorbed in the building structure, thereby reducing the instan. taneous heat gain. Chapter 3, “Heat Storage, Di- versity and Stratification,” contains the data and ‘methods for estimating the actual cooling load from the heat sources referred to in the following text. PEOPLE Heat is generated within the human body by oxidation, commonly called metabolic rate, The metabolic rate varies with the individual and with his activity level. The normal body processes are performed most efficiently at a deep tissue tempera- ture of about 98.6 F: this temperature may vary only thra a narrow range. However, the human body is capable of maintaining this temperature, thru a wide ambient temperature range, by conserving or dissipating the heat generated within itself. ‘This heat is carried to the surface of the body by the blood stream and is dissipated by: 1. Radiation from the body surface to the sur rounding surfaces 2, Convection from the body surface and the res: piratory tract to the surrounding air, ‘vaporation of moisture from the body surface and in the respiratory tract to the surrounding 8 ‘The amount of heat dissipated by radiation and convection is determined by the difference in tem. perature between the body surface and its surround: ings. The body surface temperature is regulated by the quantity of blood being pumped to the surface; the more blood, the higher the surface temperature up to a limit of about 96 F. The heat dissipated by evaporation is determined by the difference in vapor pressure between the body and the air. Basis of Table 48 ~Heot Gain from People Table 48 is based on the metabolic rate of an aver- age adult male, weighing 150 pounds, at different levels of activity, and generally for occupancies longer than 8 hours. These have been adjusted for typical compositions of mixed groups of males and females for the listed applications, The metabolic rate of women is about 85% of that for a male, and for children about 75%, ‘The heat gain for restaurant applications has been increased 0 Biu/hr sensible and 30 Beu/hr latent heat per person to include the food served. The data in Table 48 as noted are for continuous occupancy. The excess heat and moisture brought in by people, where short time occupancy is occur ring (under 15 minutes), may increase the heat gain from people by as much as 10%, Use of Table 48 — Heat Gain from People ‘To establish the proper heat gain, theroom design temperature and the activity level of the occupants must be known.

The radiant portion of the light load is partially stored, and the convection portion may be stratified as described on page 39. Refer to Table 12, page 35, to determine the actual cooling load. Incandescent lights convert approximately 10%, of the power input into light with the rest being generated as heat within the bulb and dissipated by radiation, convection and conduction.

Some of this power input is dissipated as heat in the motor frame and can be evaluated as input x (1 — motor eff. The rest of the power input (brake horsepower ‘or motor output) is dissipated by the driven machine ancl in the drive mechanism, The driven machine wilives this motor output to do work which may or may not result in a heat gain to the space. Motors dviving fans and pumps: The power input increases the pressure and velocity of the fluid and the temperature of the fluid. ‘The increased energy level in the fluid is degen- erated in pressure drop diroughout the system and appears as a heat gain to the fluid at the point where pressure drop occurs, This heat gain does not appear fas a temperature rise because, as the pressure re: ‘duces, the fluid expands. The fluid expansion is a cooling process which exactly offsets the heat generated by friction. The heat of compression re (quired to increase the energy level is generated at the fan or pump «rd is a heat gain at this point, If the Auid is conveyed outside of the air con: ditioned space, only the inefficiency of the motor driving fan or pump should be included in room sensible heat gain. If the temperature of the fluid is maintained by a separate source, these heat gains to the fluid heat of compression are # load on this separate source only. ‘The heat gain or loss from the system should be calculated separately (System Heat Gain,” p. 110). Motors driving process machinesy (lathe, punch press, ete.): The total power input to the machine is dissipated as heat at the machine. If the product is removed from the conditioned space at a higher temperature than it came in, some of the heat input into the machine is removed and should not be considered a heat gain to the conditioned space. ‘The heat added to product is determined by multi- plying the number of pounds of material handled per hour by the specific heat and temperature rise. Basis of Table 53 = Hest Gain from Electric Motors Table 53 is based or average efficiencies of squirrel cage induction open type integral horsepower and. fractional horsepower motors, Power supply for fractional horsepower motors is 110 or 220 volts, 60 cycle, single phase; for integral horsepower motors, 208, 220, or 440 volts, 60 cycle, 2 or 8 phase general purpose and constant speed, 1160 or 1750 rpm. This table may also be applied with reasonable accuracy to 50 cycle, single phase a-c, 50 and 60 cycle enclosed and fractional horsepower polyphase motors. Use of Table 53 Heat Gain from Elecite Motors ‘The data in Table 33 includes the heat gain from electric motors and their driven machines when both the motor and the driven machine are in the conditioned space, or when only the driven machine is in the conditioned space, or when only the motor is in the conditioned space. Caution: The power input to electric motors does not necesserily equal the rated horse power divited by the motor efficiency Frequently these motors may be operating under a continuous overload, or may be operating at less than rated capacity. It is always advisable to measure the power input wherever possible. This is espe cially important in estimates for industrial installation; where the motor-machine load is normally a major portion of the cooling load, ey CHAPTER 7. INTERNAL AND SYSTEM HEAT GAIN When readings are obtained directly in watts and when both motors and driven machines are in the air conditioned space, the heat gain is equal to the number of watts times the factor 84 Buu (watt)(br), When the machine is in the conditioned space and the motor outside, multiply the watts by the motor efficiency and by the factor 3.4 to determine heat gain to the space, When the machine is outside the conditioned 1-105 space, multiply the watts by one minus the motor efficiency and by the factor 8.1 Although the results are less accurate, it may be expedient to obtain power input measurements using @ clamp-on ammeter and voltmeter. These instruments permit instantaneous readings only. ‘They afford means for determining the load factor but the usage factor must be obtained by a careful investigation of the operating conditions.

PIPING, TANKS AND EVAPORATION OF WATER FROM. ‘A FREE SURFACE Hot pipes and tanks add sensible heat to a space by convection and radiation. Conversely, cold pipes remove sensible heat. All open tanks containing hot water contribute not only sensible heat but also latent heat due to evaporation. In industrial plants, furnaces or dryers are often encountered. These contribute sensible heat to the space by convection and radiation from the outside surfaces, and frequently dryers also contribute sens. ble and latent heat from the drying process. Basis of Tables 54 th = Heat Gain from Fi of Water Table 54 is based on nominal flow in the pipe and convection heat flow from a horizontal pipe of — se) =(2)" X (temp diff between hot water oF steam. and room). 58 ing, Tanks and Evaporation The radiation from horizontal pipes is expressed by= 17.23 x 10-” x emissivity x (74 = T) where T, = room susface temp, deg R T, = pipe surface temp, deg R Tables 55 and 56 are based on the same equatioi and an insulation resistance of approximately 25 per inch of thickness for 85% magnesia and 2.9 per inch of thickness with moulded type. Caution: Tables $5 and 56 do not include an allow: ance for fittings. A safety factor of 10% should be added for pipe runs having numerous fittings. Table 57 is based on an emissivity of 0.9 for painted metal and painted or bare wood and con- crete. The emissivity of chrome, bright nickel plate, stainless steel, or galvanized iron is 0.4, The resist: ance (t) of wood! 's 0.888 per inch and of concrete 0.08 per inch, The metal surface temperature has been assumed equal to the water temperature NOTE: The heat gain from furnaces and ovens can be estimated from Table 57, using the out side temperature of furnace and oven. Table 58 is based on the following formula for still air: Heat of evaporation = 95 (vapor pressure CHAPTER 7.

The latent heat gain is equal to the pounds per hour escaping times 1050 Beu/Ib, MOISTURE ABSORPTION When moisture (regain) is absorbed by hygro: scopic materials, sensible heat is added to the space. The heat so gained is equal to the latent heat of vaporization which is approximately 1030 Btu/Ib times the pounds of water absorbed, This sensible heat is an addition t> room sensible heat, and a deduction from room latent heat if the hygroscopic material is removed from the conditioned space. LATENT HEAT GAIN— CREDIT TO ROOM SENSIBLE HEAT Some forms of latent heat gain reduce room sensible heat. Moisture evaporating at the room| wet-bulb temperature (not heated or cooled from external source) utilizes room sensible heat for heat of evaporation. This farm of latent heat gain should be deducted from room sensible heat and added to room Intent heat, This does not change the total room heat gain, but may have considerable effect on he sensible heat factor, When the evaporation of moisture derives its heat from another source such as steam or electric heating coils, only the latent heat gain to the room is figured: room sensible heat is nat reduced, The power input to the steam or electric coils balances the heat of evaporation except for the initial warmup of the TABLE 54—HEAT TRANSMISSION COEFFICIENTS FOR BARE STEEL PIPES Bru/hr) (linear #) (deg F diff between pipe and surrounding ait) fOMINAL 180 F | 210 F 27 ‘300 F 338 F "A170 Fab room temparatore ID te enttna comrny 1-108 PART 1.

SUPPLY AIR DUCT HEAT GAIN ‘The supply duct normally has 50 F db to 60 F db air flowing through it, The duct may pass through an unconditioned space having a tempera ture of, say, 90 F db and up. This results in a heat gain to the duct before it reaches the space to be conditioned. This, in effect, reduces the cooling capacity of the conditioned air. To compensate for it, the cooling capacity of the air quantity must be increased. It is recommended that long runs of ducts in unconditioned spaces be insulated to mini Basis or Chart 3 ~Percent Room Sensible Heat to be Added for Heat Goin to Supply Duct Chart 3 is based on a difference of 30 F db be. tween supply air and unconditioned space, a supply duct velocity of 1800 fpm in a square duct, still fon the outside of the duct and a supply air rise of 17 ED 0 contains comer tures, duct velocities und temperature differences are included below Ghar’ 3.

RETURN AIR DUCT HEAT AND LEAKAGE GAIN ‘The evaluation of heat and leakage effects on return air ducts is made in the same manner as for supply air ducts, except that the process is reversed there is inward gain of hot moist air instead of loss of cooling effect. Chart 3 can be used to approximate heat gain to the return duct system in terms of percent of RSH, using the following procedure: 1, Using RSH and the length of return air duct, use Chart 3 to establish the percent heat gain, 2. Use the multip.ying factor from table below Chart 3 to adjust the percent heat gain tor actual temperature difference between the air surrounding the return air duct and the air in side the duct, and also for the actual velocity 3. Multiply the resulting percentage of heat gain by the ratio of RSH 10 GTH. Apply the resulting heat gain percentage to GTH. To determine the return air duct leakage, apply the following reasoning 1. Bare duct within conditioned space ~ no in- leakage. 2 Forred duct within conditioned space or furved space used for recurn air ~ a mater of judg: ment, depending on whether the furred space may connect to unconditioned space 3. Ducts outside ecntitioned space — assume up to 8% inleakage, depending on the length of duet, If there is only a short connection be tween conditioned space and apparatus, in: Teakage may be disregarded. If there is a Jong run of duct, then apply judgment as to the amount of inleakage.

APPLIED PSYCHROMETRICS DEFINITION Psychrometrics is the science involving thermo- dynamic properties of moist air and the effect of atmospheric moisture on materials and human com: fort. As it applies to this chapter, the definition must be broadened to include the method of controlling the thermal properties of moist air AIR CONDITIONING PROCESSES Fig. 33 shows a typical air conditioning process traced on a psychrometric chart. Outdoor air (2)* is mixed with return air from the room (J) and enters, the apparatus (3).

Chapter 7 gives the necessary data for eval- wating these supplementary loads. Therefore, the temperature of the air leaving the apparatus is not necessarily equal to the temperature of the air sup. plied to the space as indicated in Fig. 38, Fig, 39 illustrates what actually happens when 1-119 these supplementary loads are considered in plotting the RSHF and GSHF lines.

The above equi tion contains the term fq which is the mixture condition of air entering the apparatus. With the exception of an all outdoor air application, the term fy can only be determined by trial and error, One possible procedure to determine the mixture temperature and the air quantities is outlined below. This procedure illustrates one method of apparatus selection and is presented to show how cumbersome and time consuming it may be. 1-120 PART 1. LOAD ESTIMATING 1. Assume a rise (ty ~ fe) in the supply air to the space, and calawlate the supply air quantity (cfg) to the space. 2. Use this air quantity to calculate the mixture condition of the air (f,) to the space, (Equation 1, page 150), 3. Substitute this supply air quantity and mixture condition of the air in the formula for air quantity thru the apparatus (cfmgy) and deter: mine the leaving condition of the air from the conditioning apparatus (ts). 1, The rise between the leaving condition from the apparatus and supply air condition to the space (Fy — tee) must be able to handle the supplementary loads (duct heat gain and fan heat). ‘These temperatures (tiny foe) may de plotted on their respective GSH and RSHF lines (Fig. 39) to determine if these conditions can handle the supplementary loads. If they ‘cannot, a new rise in supply air is assumed and the triakand-error procedure repeated, Ina normal, well designed, tight system this dif; ference in supply air temperature and the condition of the air leaving the apparatus (tye — fo) is usually not more than a lew degrees. To simplify the discussion on the interrelationship of RSHF and GSHF, the supplementary loads have been neglected in the various discussions, formulas and problems in the remainder of this chapter. It can not be over ‘emphasized, however, that these supplementary loadls must be recognized when estimating the cool- ing and heating loads. These loads are taken into account on the air conditioning load estimate in Chapter 1, and are evaluated in Chapter 7. ‘The RSHF ratio will be constant (at full load) under a specified set of conditions; however, the GSHF ratio may increase or decrease as the outdoor air quantity and mixture conditions are varied for design purposes. As the GSHF ratio changes, the supply air condition to the space varies along the RSHF line (Fig. 38). The difference in temperature between the room and the air supply to the room determines the air quantity required to satisfy the room sensible and room latent loads. As this temperature difference increases (supplying colder air, since the room con: ditions are fixed), the required air quantity to the space decreases. This temperature difference can increase up to a limit where the RSHF line crosses the saturation line on the psychrometrie chart, Fig 38: assuming, of course, that the available condition ing cquipment is able to take the air to 100% saturation. Since this is impossible, the condition of the air normally falls on the RSHF line close to the saturation line. How close to the saturation line depends on the physical operating characteristics and the efficiency of the conditioning equipment. In determining the required air quantity, when neglecting the supplementary loads, the supply air temperature is assumed to equal the condition of the air leaving the apparatus (fu ~ fwy)- This is illus toated in Fig. 38. The calculation for the required air quantity still remains a trial-and-error pro- cedure, since the mixture temperature of the air (1q) entering the apparatus is dependent on the required air quantity. The same procedure previ- ously described for determining the air quantity is used. Assume a supply air rise and calculate the supply air quantity and the mixture temperature to the conditioning apparatus. Substitute the supply air quantity and mixture temperature in the equa tion for determining the air quantity thru the apparatus, and calculate the leaving condition of the air from the apparatus. This temperature must equal the supply air temperature; if it does not, a new supply air rise is assumed and the procedure repeated, Determining the vequived aix quantity by either amethod previously described is a tedious process, since it involves a trictandervor procedure, plotiing the RSHF and GSHF satios on a psychvometvie chart, and in actual practice accounting for the supplementary loads in determining the supply air, ivtuve and leaving air temperatures. This procedure has been simplified, however, by relating all the conaitioning loads to the physical performance of the conditioning equipment, and then including this equipment performance in the ‘actual calculation of the lord. This relationship is generally recognized as a psychrometrie correlation of loads to equipment per- formance. The correlation is accomplished by cat culating the “effective surface temperature,” “bypass factor” and “effective sensible heat factor.” These alone will permit the simplified caleulation of sup- ply air quantity EFFECTIVE SURFACE TEMPERATURE (t.,) ‘The surface temperature of the conditioning equipment varies throughout the surface of the ap- paratus as the air comes in contact with it. However, the effective surface temperature can be considered to be the uniform surface temperature which would produce the same leaving air conditions as the non- uniform surface temperature that actually occurs CHAPTER 8 APPLIED PSYCHROMETRICS when the apparatus is in operation. This is more clearly understood by illustrating the heat transfer effect between the air and the cooling (or heating) medium, Fig, 40 illustrates this process and is appli cable to a chilled water cooling medium with the supply air counterflow in relation to the chilled water, Fic, 40 — ReLarionstur oF Errective Sunrace Teme ‘ro Surry Air AND CHILLED WATER The relationship shown in Fig. 40 may also be illustrated for heating, divect expansion cooling and for air flowing parallel to the cooling or heating medium. The direction, slope and position of the lines change, but the theory is identical Since conditioning the air thru the apparatus re. duces to the basic principle of heat transfer between the heating or cooling media of the conditioning apparatus and the air thru that apparatus, there must be a common reference point. This point is the effective surface temperature af the apparatus The two heat transfers are relatively independent of ach other, but are quantitatively equal when re- ferred to the effective surface temperature. ‘Therefore, to obtain the most economical appara tus selection, the effective surface temperature is used in calculating the required air quantity and in selecting the apparatus. For applications involving cooling and dehumidi- fication, the effective surface temperature is at the point where the GSHF line crosses the saturation Tine on the psychrometric chart (Fig. 36). As such, this effective surface temperature is considered to be the dewpoint of the apparatus, and hence the term apparatus dewpoint (adp) has come into common usage for cooling and dehumidifying processes Since cooling and dehumidification is one of the most common applications for central station ap. paratus, the “Air Conditioning Load Estimate” form, Fig. #4, is designed around the term apparatus, LD 1 crstentng copay Lai dewpoint (adp). The term is used exclusively in this chapter when referring to cooling and dehumidity. ing applications. The psychrometrics of air can be applied equally well t9 other types of heat transfer applications such as sensible heating, evaporative cooling, sensible cooling, etc., but for these appli- cations the effective surface temperature will not necessarily fall on the saturation line. BYPASS FACTOR (BF) Bypass factor is a function of the physical and operating characteristics of the conditioning appara: tus and, as such, represents that portion of the air which is considered to pass through the conditioning apparatus completely unaltered. ‘The physical and operating characteristics affect- ing the bypass factor are as follows: 1, A decreasing amount of available apparatus heat transfer surface results in an increase in bypass factor, Le less rows of coil, less coil surface area, wider spacing of coil tubes. A decrease in the velocity of air through the conditioning apparatus results in a decrease in bypass factor, iz. more time for the air to contact the heat transfer surface. Decreasing or increasing the amount of heat trans- fer surface has a greater effect on bypass factor than varying the velocity of cir through the apparatus. ‘There is a psychrometric relationship of bypass factor to GSHF and RSHF. Under specified room, outdoor design conditions and quantity of outdoor air, RSHF and GSHF are fixed. The position of RSHF js also fixed, but the relative position of GSHF may vary as the supply air quantity and supply air condition change. To properly maintain room design conditions, the air must be supplied to the space at some point along the RSHF line. Therefore, asthe bypass factor varies, the relative position of GSHF to RSHF changes, as shown by the dotted lines in Fig. 41. As the position of GSHF changes, the entering and Teaving air conditions at the apparatus, the required air quantity, bypass factor and the apparatus dew- point also change. ‘The effect of varying the bypass factor on the conditioning equipment is as follows: 1. Smaller bypass factor — a. Higher adp — DX equipment selected for higher refrigerant temperature and chilled water equipment would be selected for less or higher temperature chilled water. Pos: sibly smaller refrigeration machine. PART 1, LOAD ESTIMATING b, Less air—smaller fan and fan motor. ©. More heat transfer surface — more rows of coil or more coil surface available. d. Smaller piping if less chilled water is used. 2, Larger bypass factor ~ a, Lower adp — Lower refrigerant temperature to select DX equipment, and more water or lower temperature for chilled water equip. ment. Possibly larger refrigeration machine. b. More air —larger fan and fan motor. c. Less heat transfer surface — less rows of coil or less coil surface available. 4, Larger piping if more chilled water is used nef Fic. 41 — RSHF axo GSHF Lines Prorren on SkrLEToN PsycHroMeTRic CHART It is, therefore, an economic balance of first cost and operating cost in selecting the proper bypass factor for a particular application. Table 62, page 127, lists suggested bypass factors for various applica- tions and is a guide for the engineer to proper bypass factor selection for use in load calculations. Tables have also been prepared to illustrate the various configurations of heat transfer surfaces and the resulting bypass factor for different air velocities, Table 61, page 127, lists bypass factors tor various coil surfaces. Spray washer equipment is normally rated in terms of saturation efficiency which is the complement of bypass factor (I — BF). Table 63, page 136, is a guide to representative saturation eff Ciencies for various spray arrangements ‘As previously indicated, the entering and leaving air conditions at the conditioning apparatus and the apparatus dewpoint are related psychromet- rically to the bypass factor. Although it is recognized that bypass factor is not a true straight line function, it can be accurately evaluated mathematically from the following equations: BF = teay — tap Frog Bay and pope af tn hag — an teay — tag rea = hay NOTE: The quansity (IBF s frequent) called contac facor and is considered to be that portion of the ait leaving the apparatus atthe adp. EFFECTIVE SENSIBLE HEAT FACTOR (ESHF) To relate bypass factor and apparatus dewpoint to the load calculation, the effective sensible heat Jactor term was developed. ESHF is interwoven with BF and adp, and thus greatly simplifies the calcula- tion of air quantity and apparatus selection, The effective sensible heat factor is the ratio of effective room sensible heat to the effective room sensible and latent eats. Effective room sensible heat is composed of room sensible heat (see RSHF) plus that portion of the outdoor air sensible load which is considered as being bypassed, unaltered, thru the conditioning apparatus. The effective room Tatent heat is composed of the room latent heat (see RSHF) plus that portion of the outdoor air Iatent heat load which is considered as being by- passed, unaltered, thru the conditioning apparatus. ‘This ratio is expressed in the following formula: ERSH ERSH ERSH+ERLH ERTH ‘The bypassed outdoor air loads that are included in the calculation of ESHF are, in effect, loads im. posed! on the conditioned space in exactly the same manner as the infiltration load. The infiltration load comes thru the doors and windows: the by- passed outdoor air load is supplied to the space thru the air distribution system. Plotting RSHF and GSHF on the psychometric chart defines the adp and BF as explained pre} ously. Drawing a straight line between the adp and room design conditions (I -2), Fig. 42 represents the ESHF ratio, The interrelationship of RSHF and GSHF to BF, adp and ESHF is graphically illus. trated in Fig, #2. The effective sensible heat factor line may also be drawn on the psychrometric chart without ini- tially knowing the adp. The procedure is identical to the one described for RSHF on page 118. The cal- ESHE erica: | CHAPTER 8. APPLIED PSYCHROMETRICS culated ESHF, however, is plotted thru the room design conditions to the saturation line (1 -2), Fig. +43, thus indicating the adp. ‘Tables have been prepared to simplify the method of determining adp from ESHF. Adp can be ob- tained by entering Table 65 at room design condi- tions and at the calculated ESHF. It is not necessary to plot ESHF on a psychometric chart.

Previously in this chap- ter, the interrelationship of ESHF, BF and adp was shown with GSHF and RSHF. These two factors need not be calculated to determine the required air quantity, since the use of ESHF, BF and adp results in the same air quantity ‘The formula for calculating air quantity, using BF and fe¢p is RSH 1.08 (thm — feap) (I BF) (ESHE isused to determine teay:) This air quantity simultaneously offsets the room, sensible and room latent loads, and also handles the total sensible and latent loads for which the condi: tioning apparatus is designed, including the outdoor air loads and the supplementary loads, AIR CONDITIONING LOAD ESTIMATE FORM The “Air Conditioning Load Estimate” form is designed for cooling and dehumidifying appli cations, and may be used for psychrometric calcula: tions. Normally, only ESHF, BF and adp are required to determine air quantity and to select the apparatus, But for those instances when it is desirable to know RSHF and GSHF, this form is designed so that these factors may also be calculated, Fig. #4, in conjunction with the following items, explains how each factor is calculated.

These Components may be used singly or in combination to control the psychrometric properties of the air passing thru them. The selection of this equipment is normally de- termined by the requirements of the specific appli- cation. The components must be selected and integrated to result in a practical system; that is, cone having the most economical owning and oper ating cost An economical system requires the optimum com: bination of ait conditioning components. It also requires an air distribution system that provides good air distribution within the conditioned space, Using a practical rise between supply air and room air cemperatures. Since the only known items are the Ioad in the space and the conditions to be maintained within the space, the selection of the various eoriponents js based on these izems, Normally, performance re quirements are established and then equipment is selected to meet the requirements, COIL CHARACTERISTICS In the operation of coils, air is drawn ar forced over a series of tubes thru whieh chilled water, brine, volatile refrigerant, hot water or steam is flow ing, As the air passes over the surface af the coil it is cooled, cooled and dehumidified, or heated. de pending upon the :emperature of the medi flowing thru the tubes.

This may occur where che latent load is high with respect to the total loads (dance halls, etc.). In such appli cations, an appropriate apparatus dewpoint is selec. ted and the air is reheated to the RSHF line. Occasionally, altering the room design conditions eliminates the need for reheat, or reduces the quan: tity of reheat required, Similarly, the utilization of fa large air side surface (low bypass factor) coil may ‘eliminate the need for reheat or reduce the required. reheat. ‘Once the ventilation air requirement is deter mined, and if the supply air quantity is not fixed, the best approach to determining the apparatus dewpoint is to assume a maximum allowable tem: perature difference between the supply air and the room. Then, calculate the supply air conditions to the space. The supply air conditions to the space must fall on the RSHF line to properly offset the sensible and latent loads in the space. ‘There are four criteria which should be exam ined, to aid in establishing the supply air require- ments to the space, These are: J, Air movement in the space. 2, Maximum temperature difference between the stupply air and the room, 8.

For such applications, the ventilation or code requirements may be equal to, ot more than, the air quantity required to han- dle the room loads. Hems 1 thru 5 explain the procedure for deter mining the dehumidified air requirements using the ‘Air Conditioning Load Estimate” form when all ‘outdoor air is required. 1, Calculate the various loads and determine the apparatus dewpoint and debumidified sir quantity. If the dehumidified air quantity is equal to the outdoor air requirements, the solution is self evident. 3. If the dehumidifed air quantity is less than the outdoor air requirements, a coil with a larger bypass factor should be investigated when the difference in air quantities is small. If a large difference exists, however, reheat is required. ‘This situation sometimes occurs when the application requires large exhaust air quantities. . If the dehumidified air quantity is greater than the outdoor air requirements, substitute effigy for efmy in the outdoor air load calculations, Use the recalculated outdoor air loads to deter- mine a new apparatus dewpoint and dehu- midified air quantity. This new dehumidified air quantity should check reasonably close to the cfrtg, in Item | A special situation may arise when the condition, explained in Item 4 occurs. This happens when the ESHF, as plotted on the psychometric chart, does not intersect the saturation line, This situa: tion is handled in a manner similar to that previously described under “Cooling and Dehumid: ification — High Latent Load Application.

It may also be used at design conditions for industrial applications having yela- tively high sensible loads and high room relative humidity requirements, Without humidification, excessively high supply air quantities may be re- quited. This not only creates air distribution prob- lems but also is often economically unsound. Excessive supply air quantity requirements can be avoided by introducing moisture into the space to convert sensible heat to latent heat. This is some- arencheses at right edge of column refer to equations heginning on page 150 1131 times referred to 2s a “split system.” The moisture is introduced into the space by using steam or elee- cic humidifiers or auxiliary sprays. When humidification is performed in the space, the room sensible load is decreased by an amount equal to the latent heat added, since the process is merely an interchange of heat. The humidifier mo- tor adds sensible heat to the room but the amount is negligible and is usually ignored Where humidification is required at design to reduce the air quantity, then a credit t0 the room sensible heat shoul be taken in the amount of the latent heat from the added moisture. No credit to the 100m sensible load is taken when humidification is used to make up a deficiency in the room latent Joad during partial load operation When the humidifiers and sprays are used to 16 duce the required air quantity, the lacent load introduced into the space is added to the room Iatent load. When the humicifier or sprays are operated only to make up the rom deficiency, the latent load introduced into the room by the humidifier or auxiliary sprays in the space is not added to the room latent load. The introduction of this moisture into the space to reduce the required air quantity decreases the RSHF, ESHF and the apparatus dewpoint. This method of reducing the required air quantity is normally advantageous when designing for high room relative humidities, ‘The method of determining the amount of moist ure necessary to reduce the required air quantity results in a wiakanderror procedure. The method is outlined in the following steps 1. Assume an amount of moisture to be added and determine the latent heat available from this moisture, Table 64 gives the maximum moist: ure that may be added to a space without causing condensation on supply air ducts and equipment. 2 Deduct this assumed latent heat from the orig- nal effective room sensible heat and use the difference in the following equation for ERSH Lo determine fy ERSH ay = be — TAB (L — BE) hag Gfinay is the reduced air quantity permissible in the air distribution system, 3.

The humidifier used for partial load is sized for the effective room latent Joad, not including that produced by the other humidifier. If the winter require- ments for moisture addition are larger than summer requirements, then the humidifier is selected for these conditions. This method of using two humidifiers gives the best control. 2, Use one humidifier of sufficient capacity to handle the effective room latent heat plus the calculated amount of latent heat from the added moisture required to reduce the air quantity. In Part B, Step 5, the humidifier would be sized for a latent load of 48,600 Bru /br. Oe lA ait ie Ls PART 1, LOAD ESTIMATING Sensible Cooling A sensible cooling process is one that removes heat from the air at a constant moisture content, line (J-2), Fig. 48. Sensible cooling occurs when either of the following conditions exist: 1. The GSHF as calculated or plotted on the psychrometrie chart is 1.0, 2. ‘The ESHE calculated on the air conditioning load estimate form is equal to 1.0 In a sensible cooling application, the GSHF equals 1.0. The ESHF and the RSHF may equal 1.0. When only the RSHF equals 10, however, it does not necessarily indicate a sensible cooling proc: css because latent load, introduced by outdoor ait can give a GSHF less than 1.0. ‘The apparatus dewpoint is referred to as the effec: tive surface temperature (t4) in sensible cooling applications.

The spray nowles may be arranged within the chamber to spray the water counter to air flow, parallel to air slow, or ina patcern that is a combination of these two. Generally, the counter-flow sprays are the most efficient; parallel flow sprays are the least efficient and when both are employed, the efficiency falls somewhere in between these extremes, SATURATION EFFICIENCY In a spray chamber, air is brought into contact with a dense spray of water. The air approaches the state of complete saturation. The degree of satura tion is termed saturation efficiency (sometimes called contact or performance factor). Saturation efficiency is, therefore, a measure of the spray chamber eff ciency. It can be considered to represent that portion of the ait passing thru the spray chamber which contacts the spray water surface. This contacted air is considered to be leaving the spray chamber at the effective surface temperature of the spray water This effective surface temperature is the temper ture at complete saturat.on of the air. Though not a straight line fonction, the effect of saturation efficiency on the leaving stir conditions from @ spray chamber may be devermined with a sulficient degree of accuracy from the following equation: teas ther Woa— Wie pee a aia olal ‘The saturation elficiency is the complement of bypass factor, and with spray equipment the bypass factor is used in the calculation of the cooling load. Bypass factor, therefore, represents that portion of the air passing thru the spray equipment which is considered to be leavirg the spray chamber con pletely unaltered from its entering condition. This efficiency of the sprays in the spray chamber is dependent on the spray surface available and on the time available for the air to contact the spray water surface, The available surface is determined by the water particle size in the spray mist (pressure tat the spray nozzle and the nozzle size), the quantity of water sprayed, number of banks of nozzles, and the number of nozzles in each bank, The time avail able for contact depends on the velocity of the air ure the chamber, the length of the effective spray chamber, and the direction of the sprays relative to the air flow, As the available surface decreases or as the time available for contact decreases, the satura tion efficiency of the spray chamber decreases. Table 63 illustrates the relative efficiency of different spray chamber arrangements. ‘The relationship of the spray water temperatures to the air temperatures is essential in understanding the psychrometrics of the varions spray processes. It can be assumed that the leaving water temperature from a spray chamber, alter it has contacted the air, is equal to the leaving air wet-bulb temperature ‘The leaving water temperature will not usually vary more than a degree from the leaving air wet-bulb temperature. Then the entering water temperature is, therefore, dependent on the water quantity and the heat required to be added or removed from the air Table 63 illustrates the relative efficiency of differ- ‘ent spray chamber arrangements.

Cooling and Dehumidificaion If the spray water is cooled still further, cooling: and dehumidification takes place. This is illustrated by line (7-5). The leaving air is lower in dry: and werbulb temperatures and in moisture content than the air entering the spray chamber Cooling and Humidification — With Heated Spray Water When the spray water is heated to a limited de- ‘gree before it is sprayed into the air stream, the slope of the process line rises to @ point above the evaporative cooling line, This is iMustrated by line (1-6), Note that the leaving air is lower in dry-bulb temperature, but higher in wet-bulb temperature and moisture content, than the air entering the spray chamber. Heating and Humidification If the spray water is sufficiently heated, a heating and humidification process results. This is repre- bulb sented by line (1-7). In this process the dry CHAPTER 8. APPLIED PSYCHROMETRICS L137 temperature, wer-bulb temperature, and moisture content of the leaving air is greater than that of the entering air, SPRAY PROCESS EXAMPLES ‘The following descriptions and examples provide a better understanding of the various psychrometric processes involved in spray washer equipment. Codling and Dehumidification When a spray chamber is to be used for cooling and dehumidification, the procedure for estimating the load and selecting the equipment is identical to the procedure described on page 128 for coils. ‘The “Air Conditioning Load Estimate” form is used to evaluate the load; bypass factor is determined by subtracting the selected saturation efficiency from. one, Spray chamber dehumidifiers may not be rated in terms of apparatus dewpoint but in terms of entering and leaving we-bulb temperatures at the apparatus, The apparatus dewpoint must still be determined, however, to evaluate properly the en- tering and leaving wet-bulb temperatures and the dehumidified air quantity. Although originally prepared to exemplify the operation of a coil, Example I, page 128, is also typical of the cooling and dehumiditying process using sprays. Cooling and Dehumidification — Using All Outdoor Air When a spray chamber is to be used for cooling and dehumidifying with all outdoor air, the pro- cedure for determining adp, entering and leaving conditions at the chamber, ESHF and cjmg. is identical to the procedure for determining these items for coils using all outdoor air. Therefore, the description on page 130 and Example 3 may be used to analyze this type of application. Evaporative Cooling An evaporative cooling application is the simul- taneous removal of sensible heat and the addition ‘of moisture to the air, line (1 -2), Fig. 54, The spray water temperature remains essentially constant at the wet-bulb temperature of the air. This is a process in which heat is not added to or removed from the spray water, (Heat gain from the water pump and heat gain thru the apparatus casing are not in- eluded.) Evaporative cooling is commonly used for those applications where the relative humidity is to be controlled but where no control is required for the room ary-bulb temperature, except to hold it above a predetermined minimum, When the dry-bulb temperature is to be maintained during the winter or intermediate season, heat must be available to the system. This is usually accomplished by adding a reheat coil. When relative humidity is to be mai tained in addition to room dry-bulb during the winter or intermediate season, a combination of preheat and reheat coils, or a reheat coil and spray water heating, is required. The latter method changes the process from evaporative cooling to one of the humidification processes illustrated by lines (1-6) or (1 -7)in Fig. 54 Evaporative cooling may be used in industrial applications where the humidity alone is critical, and also in dry climates where evaporative cooling gives some measure of relief by removing sensible heat.

This may be required during the intermediate and winter seasons or dur- ing partial loads where both the dry-bulb tempera: ture and relative humidity are to be maintained, Heating and humidification may be accomplished by either of the following methods: 1. Add heat to the spray water before it is sprayed into che airstream. 2. Preheat the ait with a steam or hot water coil and then evaporatively cool it in the spray chamber. Spray water is hested, by a steam to water inter changer or by direct injection of steam into the water system. Since the supply air quantity and the spray water quantity have been determined from the summer design conditions, the only other re quirement is to determine the amount of heat to be added to the spray water or to the preheater For applications requiring humidification, the room latent load is ustally not calculated and the room sensible heat factor is assumed to be 10. Example § illustrates the psychrometric calcul tions for heating and humidifying application when the spray water is heated.

This mixture must then be evaporatively cooled to the room dewpoint (or room moisture content). And finally, the air leaving the spray chamber must be rekeated to the required supply air temperature, SORBENT DEHUMIDIFIERS Sorbent dehumidifers contain liquid absorbent or solid adsorbent which are either sprayed di rectly into, or located in, the path of the air stream, ‘The liquid absorbent changes either physically or chemically, or both, during the sorption process. ‘The solid adsorbent does not change during the sorption process, ‘As moist air comes in contact with cither the liquid absorbent or solid adsorbent, moisture is removed from the air by the difference in vapor pressure between the air stream and the sorbent. As Fic. 58 —Sornent Dinuasipirication Processes this moisture condenses, latent heat of condensa: tion is liberated, causing a rise in the temperature of the air stream and the sorbent material. This process occurs at a wetbulb temperature that is approximately constant, However, instead of add- ing moisture to the air as in an evaporative cooling process, the reverse occurs. Heat is added to the air and moisture is removed from the air stream; thus it is a dehumidification and heating process as il- lustrated in Fig. 58. Line (J-2) is the theoretical process and the dotted line (7-3) approximates what actually happens. Line (7-3) can vary, depending ‘on the type of sorbent used. Lae PART 1. LOAD ESTIMATING PSYCHROMETRICS OF PARTIAL LOAD CONTROL ‘The apparatus required to maintain proper space conditions is normally selected for peak load operation, Actually, peak load occurs but a few times each year and operation is predominantly at partial load conditions. Partial load may be caused by a reduction in sensible or latent loads in the space, or in the outdoor air load. It may also be caused by a reduction in these loads in any com- bination PARTIAL LOAD ANALYSIS Since the system operates at partial load most of the time and must maintain conditions com- mensurate with job requirements, partial load analysis is at least as important as the selection ‘of equipment, Partial load analysis should include a sttidy of resultant room conditions at minimum total load, Usually this will be sufficient. Certain applications, however, should be evaluated at mini- mum latent Joad with design sensible load, or minimum sensible load and full Jatent load. Real- istic minimum and maximum loads should be assumed for the particular application so that, ps chrometrically, the resulting room conditions are properly analyzed, The six most common methods, used singly or in combination, of controlling space conditions for cooling applications at partial load are the fol lowing: 1, Reheat the supply air. Bypass the heat transfer equipment Control the volume of the supply air Use on-off control of the air handling equip. ment 3. Use on-off control of the refrigeration machine. 5. Control the refrigeration capacity The type of control selected for a specific applica tion depends on the nature of the loads, the condi: ions to be maintained within the space, and available plant facilities REHEAT CONTROL Reheat control maintains the dry-bulb tempera ture within the space by replacing any decrease in the sensible loads by an artificial load. As the inter nal Iatent load and/or the outdoor Jatent load decreases, the space relative humidity decreases. If humidity is to be maintained, rehumidilying is re quired in addition to reheat. This was described previously under “Spray Process, Heating and Humidifying.” RESTORE Figure 59 illustrates the psychrometries of reheat control. The solid lines represent the process at design load, and tke broken lines indicate the resulting process at partial load. ‘The RSHF value, plotted from room design conditions to point (2), :nust be calculated for the minimum practical room sensible load. The room thermostat then con- tools the temperature of the air leaving the reheat coil along line (1-2). This type of control is applica- ble for any RSHF ratio that intersects line (1-2). If the internal latent loads decrease, the resulting room conditions are at point (3), and the new RSHF process line is along line (2-3). However, if hu midity is 10 be maintained within the space, the reduced latent load is compensated by humidifying, thus returning 10 the design room conditions. / courtons 7 .

Fig. 60 illustrates one method of bypass control when bypassing return air only. Bypass control may also be accomplished by bypassing 2 mixture of outdoor and return ait around the heat wansfer equipment. This method of control is inferior to bypassing return air only since it introduces raw unconditioned air into the space, thus allowing an increase in room relative humidity CHAPTER 8, APPLIED PSYCHROMETRICS FOR tate een ; E Nay Fo cence Fic, 60 — Psycromernics OF BY \ reduction in room sensible Toad causes the bypass control to reduce the amount of air thru the dehumidifier. This reduced air quantity results in fequipment operation at a Tower apparatus dew point, Also, the ait leaves the dehumidifier at 2 Tower temperature so that there is a tendency to adjust for a decrease in sensible load that is pro- portionately greater than the decrease in latent load. Bypass control maintains the room dry-bulb tem perature but does not prevent the relative humidity from rising above design, With bypass control, therefore, increased relative humidity occurs under Conditions of decreasing room sensible load and relatively constant room latent load and outdoor air load. ‘The heavy lines in Fig, 60 represent the cycle for The light lines illustrate the design conditions 0 eet Goce of the air when bypass contol fst « sen tg fetion, ‘The new room conditions, ms ture conditions and apparatus dewpoint continue pass ConTaot.

VOLUME CONTROL “Volume control of the supply air quantity pro vides essentially the same type of control that results from bypassing return air around the heat transfer equipment, Fig. 60. However, this type of control ‘may produce problems in air distribution within the space and, therefore, the required air quantity at partial Joad should be evaluated for proper air distribution. me” 6 4 ene Fic, 61 — Scteaaric SkercH oF Bypass Contkot Wore Byvass or Retury Am OxLy ON-OFF CONTROL OF AIR HANDLING EQUIPMENT Onoff control of air handling equipment (Fan coil tmnits) results in i fluctuating room teniperature and space relative humidity, During the “off” op: cration the ventilation air supply is shut ‘off, but chilled water continues to flow thru the coils. This method of control is not recommended for high Latent lod applications, as control of humidity may be lost at reduced room sensible loads, ON-OFF CONTROL OF REFRIGERATION EQUIPMENT Onoff control of refrigeration equipment (large packaged equipment) results in a fluctuating room temperature and space relative humidity. During the “ofl” operation air is available for ventilation purposes but the coil does not provide cooling. ‘Thus, any outdoor air in the system is introduced into the space unconditioned. Also the condensed moisture that remains on the cooling coil, when the refrigeration equipment is turned off, is re-evapo- rated in the warm air stream, ‘This is known as reevaporation. Both of these conditions increase the space latent load, and excessive humidity re- sults. This method of control is not recommended for high latent load zpplications since control of humidity may be lost at decreased room sensible Toads. REFRIGERATION CAPACITY CONTROL Refrigeration capacity control may be used ot either chilled water or direct expansion refrigera. tion equipment. Partial Ioad contol is accom. plished on chilled water equipment by bypassing the chilled water around the air side equipment (lan-coil units). Direct expansion refrigeration equipment is controlled either by unloading the compressor cylinders or by back pressure regulation in the refrigerant suction line. Refrigeration capacity control is normally used in combination with bypass or reheat control. When used in combination, results are excellent. When used alone, results are not as effective, For example, temperature can be maintained reasonably well, but relative humidity will rise above design at partial toad conditions, because the latent load may not reduce in proportion to the sensible load. PARTIAL LOAD CONTROL Generally, reheat control is more expensive but provides the best control of conditions in the space. Bypass control, volume control and refrigeration capacity control provide reasonably good humidity control in average or high sensible heat factor applications, and poor humidity control in low sensible heat factor applications, On-off control usually results in the least desirable method of maintaining space conditions. However, this type of control is frequently used for high sensible heat factor applications with reasonably satisfactory results CHAPTER 8.
