    This document provides steps to calculate cooling load requirements and air conditioning unit sizing for a building in tropical countries. The cooling load in BTUs is calculated by multiplying the building area by 44 BTUs/square foot. This load is then converted to tons by dividing by 12,000 BTUs. The air flow requirement in cubic feet per minute is calculated by multiplying the building area by 4.1 BTUs/square meter and dividing by 12,000 BTUs/ton.

    Cooling load

    Standard/

    This is not a written stone procedure

    Rule of thumb

    To be able to determine cooling load requirement there is a rate

    Convert it to sqft. Building area x 44btuh/sq ft

    44 BTUH/sq ft that came from this formula.

    In tropical countries heat index are high

    Convert that square tha

    473 BTUH/sqm X total building area that you have.

    Divide that 12000 btuh

    = cooling load in lbs already in tons\

    Compute for the area AAHU

    4.1 btuh/sqm x total building area. Enclosed area.

    Divide that 12000 btu per tonne

    Product x 400cfm

    400cfm/ton= volume of air quantine required


    After multiply 400cfm per ton divide that 500ft/min; which is the speed

    Total space requirement AAHU in square foot

    Supply air duct = volume of air quantity required /1000 = area for supply air duct

    Convert it to sq m add to space AAHU

    Supply air duct area
