HEAT LOAD FORM

The heat load form on the following page may be used by servicing personnel to determine the heat loss of a conditioned space and the ambient winter design temperatures in which the unit will heat the calculated space.

The upper half of the form is for computing the heat loss of the space to be conditioned. It is necessary only to insert the proper measurements on the lines provided and multiply by the given factors, then add this result for the total heat loss in BTU/Hr./°F.

The BTU/Hr. per °F temperature difference is the 70°F inside winter designed temperature minus the lowest outdoor ambient winter temperature of the area where the unit is installed. This temperature difference is used as the multiplier when calculating the heat loss.

The graph shows the following:

temperature.

Following is an example using the heat load form:

A space to be conditioned is part of a house geographically located in an area where the lowest outdoor ambient winter temperature is 40°F. The calculated heat loss is 184 BTU/ Hr./°F.

Subtract 40°F (lowest outdoor ambient temperature for the geographical location) from 70°F (inside design temperature of the unit) for a difference of 30°F. Multiply 184 by 30 for a 5500 BTU/Hr. total heat loss for the calculated space.

On the graph, plot the base point (70°) and a point on the 40°F line where it intersects with the 5500 BTU/Hr. line on the left scale. Draw a straight line from the base point 70 through the point plotted at 40°F. This is the total heat loss line.

Knowing that we have a 5500 BTU/Hr. heat loss, and we expect that our heat pump will maintain a 70°F inside temperature at 40°F outdoor ambient, we plot the selected unit capacity BTU/Hr. of the unit between 35° and 60° on the graph and draw a straight line between these points. Where the total heat loss line and the unit capacity line intersect, read down to the outdoor ambient temperature scale and find that this unit will deliver the required BTU/Hr. capacity to approximately 30°F.

R-410A specifications

Friedrich R-410A is an advanced refrigerant widely used in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, known for its high efficiency and environmental friendliness. As a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) blend, R-410A has become the preferred alternative to R-22, which is being phased out due to its ozone-depleting potential. One of the main features of R-410A is its high latent heat of vaporization, which allows for efficient heat transfer and improved cooling performance in air conditioning units.

Technologically, R-410A operates at higher pressures than older refrigerants, meaning systems designed for R-410A need to be built with more robust components to safely handle these pressures. This results in a more compact system design that offers enhanced performance and reliability. The dual-component nature of R-410A—composed of difluoromethane (R-32) and pentafluoroethane (R-125)—provides an optimal balance of thermodynamic properties, leading to superior energy efficiency, especially in variable speed applications.

In terms of characteristics, R-410A has a higher cooling capacity, which enables HVAC systems to effectively cool larger spaces or run more efficiently when cooling smaller areas. The refrigerant is non-toxic and non-flammable, which enhances safety during its use. In addition, R-410A has a lower global warming potential relative to other refrigerants, making it a more environmentally responsible choice for modern cooling systems.

Moreover, R-410A systems typically require less refrigerant charge due to their efficiency, contributing to reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The adoption of R-410A aligns with regulatory trends aimed at minimizing the environmental impact of refrigerants in cooling applications.

Overall, the Friedrich R-410A refrigerant embodies a combination of technology and environmental stewardship, making it a cornerstone of contemporary HVAC design. Its ability to provide effective and energy-efficient cooling solutions while being compliant with modern environmental regulations positions R-410A as the refrigerant of choice for engineers and installers focused on sustainability and performance in air conditioning systems.
