I DETERMINE COOLING AND HEATING REQUIRE- MENTS AT DESIGN CONDITIONS.

Given:

Required Cooling Capacity (TC). . . . . . . . . . . 55,000 Btuh Sensible Heat Capacity (SHC) . . . . . . . . . . . . 40,000 Btuh Required Heating Capacity. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 60,000 Btuh Condenser Entering Air Temp . . . . . . . . . .95 F (Summer) Evaporator Entering Air Temp. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 80 F edb,

IISELECT UNIT BASED ON REQUIRED COOLING CAPACITY.

Enter Cooling Capacities table for 580F060 (page 33) at condenser entering temperature 95 F, evaporator air entering at 2,000 cfm and 67 F wb. The 580F060 unit will provide a total cooling capacity of 60,900 Btuh and a sen- sible heating capacity of 45,300 Btuh. For air entering evaporator at temperatures other than 80 F edb, calculate sensible heat capacity correction as required using the for- mula in the notes following the Cooling Capacities tables.

IV DETERMINE FAN SPEED AND POWER REQUIRE- MENTS AT DESIGN CONDITIONS.

Before entering the Fan Performance tables, calculate the total static pressure required based on unit components. From the given and the Accessory/FIOP Static Pressure table on page 70 find:

External static pressure

0.60 in. wg

EconoMi$er IV static pressure

0.12 in. wg

Total Static

0.72 in. wg

Enter the standard motor Fan Performance table 580F060 Vertical Discharge (page 39) at 2,000 cfm and 0.72 in. wg external static pressure. The standard motor cannot provide 0.87 in. wg external static pressure. Enter the alternate motor Fan Performance table for 580F060, verti- cal discharge. At 2,000 cfm and 0.72 in. wg external static pressure, find that the rpm is 1219, the Bhp is 1.31, and the watts are 1168 (interpolation required).

VDETERMINE NET COOLING CAPACITY.

Cooling capacities are gross capacities and do not include indoor (evaporator) fan motor (IFM) heat. Use the watts input power to the motor calculated in Section IV above.

IFM Watts = 1168

Determine net cooling capacity using the following formula:

Net capacity = Gross capacity – IFM heat

=60,900 Btuh – 1168 Watts

NOTE: Unit ratings are gross capacities and do not include the effect of evaporator-fan motor heat. To calculate net capacities, see Step V.

IIISELECT HEATING CAPACITY OF UNIT TO PROVIDE DESIGN CONDITION REQUIREMENTS.

In the Heating Capacities and Efficiencies table (page 9) note that the 580F060 074 will provide an output capacity of 59,200 Btuh, which is adequate for the given application.

(3.412 WattsBtuh )

=60,900 Btuh – 3985 Btuh

=56,915 Btuh

Net sensible capacity = 45,300 Btuh – 3985 Btuh = 41,315 Btuh

The calculations show that a 580F060 unit with the alter- nate motor and drive is the correct selection for the given conditions.
