1. The number of tubes in the first row of the coil is the ____________________

2. A greater number of fins per inch results in (higher/lower) heat transfer capability and
(higher/lower) airside pressure drop.

3. The two most popular materials for fins on cooling coils are ____________________ and
____________________.

4. Define “face area.”

5. What are coil fins and what is their purpose?

6. Define “bypass factor.”

7. List three variables that can change the bypass factor:

8. Describe face split arrangement.

9. Describe row split arrangement.

10. Match the type of circuiting with its description.
Full A. Each circuit passes through each row once and exits
into the return header.

Half B. Each circuit passes through each row four times and
then exits into the return header.

Quarter C. Each circuit passes through every other row and

then exits into the return header.

Double D. Each circuit passes through each row twice and then
exits into the return header.

11. Match the type of coil with the method of heat transfer it uses.
DX A. Transfers heat using cold water flowing through the
coil.

Chilled B. Transfers heat through the evaporation of the

Water refrigerant.

Heating C. Transfers heat using hot water flowing through the

coil

12. Describe methods for piping and control of water and direct expansion coils.

13. Identify 4 key coil selection criteria and factors affecting performance.
