ME 5305 - REFRIGERATION & AIR

CONDITIONING
ASSIGNMENT

Q.01

Outdoor dry bulb temperature = 32 0C

Outdoor wet bulb temperature = 27 0C
Relative humidity = 75%

Q.02

Indoor dry bulb temperature = 22 0C

Indoor relative humidity = 50%

Q. 03

Floor = Ceramic tiles with insulation (U-value ≈ 0.8 W/m²K)

Roof = Concrete with Lime coat
Wall = Bricks and Cement
Window = Glass (3.2mm Thickness)
Doors = Wood

Q.04

Refrigerators = 4 (1500W per each)

Chairs = 50
Computers = 20 (350W cooling load per each)
WIFI routers =3

Area

North
Doors = 2.5 × 3 × 2
= 15 m2
North wall = (27 × 4) - 15 m2
= 108 m2 - 15 m2
= 93 m2

south
windows = 2 × 1.5 × 4
= 12 m2
North wall = (27 × 4) - 12 m2
= 108 m2 - 12 m2
= 96 m2

East
windows = 2 × 1.5 × 4
= 12 m2
East wall = (18 × 4) - 12 m2
= 72 m2 - 12 m2
= 60 m2
West
windows = 2 × 1.5 × 4
= 12 m2
East wall = (18 × 4) - 12 m2
= 72 m2 - 12 m2
= 60 m2

Total roof and Floor area = 27 × 18

= 486 m2
Q.05

Cooling Load Calculations
Sensible Heat Gain from Walls, Roof, Floor, Doors, and Windows
Heat Gain Through Walls
• North wall (27×4) No windows U = 2.1W/m2K
Q North =2.1× (27×4) × (32-22)
=2.1×108×10
=2268W
• South wall (27×4) 4 windows (2×1.5 each)
Q south =2.1× ((27×4) - (4×2×1.5)) ×10
=2.1× (108-12) ×10
=2.1×96×10
=2016W
• East and West Walls (18 × 4) each with 4 windows (2 × 1.5 each)
Q east/west =2.1× ((18×4) − (4×2×1.5)) ×10
=2.1× (72−12) ×10=2.1×60×10
=1,260W(each)
Heat Gain Through Roof
Q roof =1.5× (27×18) ×10 =1.5×486×10=
=7,290W
Heat Gain Through Floor (Negligible)
Q floor =0.8× (27×18) ×5=0.8×486×5
=1,944W
Heat Gain Through Windows
Q windows =3.0× (4×2×1.5+4×2×1.5+4×2×1.5) ×10
=3.0× (12+12+12) ×10
=3.0×36×10
=1,080W
Total Sensible Heat Load from Structure
Q structure =2,268+2,016+1,260+1,260+7,290+1,944+1,080 =17,118W
Internal Heat Gains
• Lighting Load
Q lighting =20× (27×18)
=20×486
=9,720W
For one shift 30 people are working,
• People Sensible Load
Q people =30×75 =2,250W
• Equipment Load
Q computers =20×300
=6,000W
Q WIFI =3×10
=30W
Q refrigerators =4×150
=600W
Q equipment =6,000+30+600
=6,630W
• Total Sensible Heat Load
Qs =Q structure + Q lighting + Q people + Q equipment
=17,118+9,720+2,250+6,630
=35718W
Latent Heat Gain
People Latent Load
Q latent =30×55
=1,650W

Infiltration Latent Load

Infiltration Volume = (27 × 18 × 4) × 1
= 1,944 m³/hr.
Approximate latent heat per m³/hr. ≈ 5 W/m³/hr.
Q infiltration =1,944×5
=9,720W
Total Latent Heat Load
Ql =1,650+9,720
=11,370W
Total Cooling Load
Q total =Q s + Q l
=35,718+11,370
=47,088W
Convert to Ton of Refrigeration (TR):
1TR =3,517W
TR =47,088/3 517
=13.38TR
Thus, a 14 TR air conditioning system is required.
