I have lab testing data that shows that an evaporator is doing 11900 BTUH of latent cooling. How do I convert that value into an amount of water produced by the coil. I need to size a drain for the evaporator assembly.

Thanks!

Devide 11,900 btuh by 970 btu = 12.268 lbs/hr then devide by 8.33#/gal =1.47/gal hr.
