Cooling Load Equations:: 1) Roof Heat Gain

The document outlines equations for calculating the cooling load from various sources, including the roof, walls, ceiling, floor, windows, lights, occupants, and infiltration. The equations consider factors like the area, heat transfer coefficients, temperature differences, solar heat gain, shading, and more. Tables are referenced for looking up values like cooling load factors, outdoor temperatures, and infiltration rates.

Cooling Load Equations:

1) Roof Heat Gain:


˙
Q=UA ¿

CLTD : from table (9-1).


LM : from table (9-2).
K = 1 if dark colour, K=0.5 if light colour.
Ti : is the inside temperature.
To,m : is the outside mean temperature ,Tmax and Tmin from table A7.

T o ,m =0.5(T max +T min )

f =1 if there is no attic or roof fan (such as most buildings in Jordan).


f = 0.75 if there is an attic or roof fan.

2) Walls Heat Gain:


A) Sunlit:
˙
Q=UA ¿

CLTD : from table (9-4).


LM : from table (9-2).
K = 1.0 for dark colour walls.
K = 0.83 for permanent medium colour walls.
K = 0.65 for permanent light colour walls.
Ti : is the inside temperature.
To,m : is the outside mean temperature ,Tmax and Tmin from table A7.

T o ,m =0.5(T max +T min )

B) Convection:
Q conv =UA (T adj −T i)
A: is the area of the wall.
U: is the heat transfer coefficient for wall.
Tadj : is the adjustable temperature, Ti is the inside temperature.
3) Ceiling:
Q conv =UA (T adj −T i)
A: is the area for Ceiling.
U: is the heat transfer coefficient for Ceiling.
Tadj : is the adjustable temperature, Ti is the inside temperature.

4) Floor:

Q conv =UA (T adj −T i)


A: is the area for Floor.
U: is the heat transfer coefficient for Floor.
Tadj : is the adjustable temperature, Ti is the inside temperature.

5) Glass Windows and Doors:

A)Sunlit:
˙
Q tr = A (SHG )( SC)(CLF )

A: is the area of glass.


SHG : is the solar heat gain rate factor, in units of W/m3, from Table (9-7).
SC : is the shading coefficient factor, from Table (9-8) for glass windows or
doors without interior shading, if with interior shading from Table ( 9-9).
CLF : is the cooling load factor from Table (9-10) for glass windows without
interior shading, with interior shading from Table (9-11).

B) Convection:
˙
Q=UA ¿
¿

CLTD : from table (9-12).


LM : from table (9-2).
K = 1.0 and f =1.
Ti : is the inside temperature.
To,m : is the outside mean temperature ,Tmax and Tmin from table A7.
6) Lights:
˙
Q ¿ =P¿ ( F u F b )¿
PLt : is the lamp rated power in units of Watts. P=Lamp Rated × A
Fu : is the fraction of lamps that are in use.
Fb : is the ballast factor that equals to 1.2 for fluorescent lamps and equals to
1.0 for ordinary lamps.
(CLF)Lt is the light cooling load factor from Table (9-15) X fixture and Y free
hanging.

7) 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) of Chapter Four.

8) Infiltration:

˙
˙
V
Q s= × ΔT
v
