Is return air temp the same as room design temp?
(OP)
I was just wondering for mixed air calculations how do people determine the return air temps? Is it just the design air temp?

Like Goober Dave stated, stratification and lighting will cause an increase. how much the increase is depends on whether lighting is a proportionally large load in the space. With the advent of LED lights they are become a smaller contributor.
Spaces with high heat loads (data centers, electrical rooms etc) would see a negligible difference between design air temperature and return air temperature.
