    Room Temperature and Heating Capacity

    Hi GT-EGR and thank you for your response. I figured as much for time but thought I would ask anyway. The one thing I didn’t think of was lower heat loss when the room temperature drops. However, even with a lower heat loss of 36.6 mbh, and even if the unit was able to supply 75°F, the new room...

    Room Temperature and Heating Capacity

    Hi everyone, I have a couple of questions about calculating room temperature. I think I already know the answer to the first question but would like your opinion. The second question is more of a curiosity. Outdoor temperature = -28°F Room setpoint = 72°F Heat loss = 40 mbh RTU = 2000 cfm @...

    Calculate Room Temperature

    I understand the laws of thermodynamics but I don't think heat gain = heat loss is the right approach to solve this problem.

    Calculate Room Temperature

    I tried trashcanman equation but I disagree that heat gain equals heat loss. FL Engineer, I will take a look at ASHRAE fundamentals, this may be the solution. I guess my question was not so simple as no one had a simple answer :) Thanks everyone

    Calculate Room Temperature

    This is not homework, it's for an actual project I'm working on. I'm having a brain fart and can't seem to figure this out. The numbers I provided are not 100% correct but are close. To clarify, I am providing some ventilation in the space but not enough to cool it down to 75F. What I am trying...

    Calculate Room Temperature

    Can someone help me calculate the indoor temperature of a room in the summer. See conditions below and assume there is no ventilation in the space. Room area = 600 sq.ft, roof area = 600 sq.ft, window = 36 sq.ft, perimeter wall = 150 sq.ft, wall height = 10 ft, outdoor temperature = 85 F, total...
