Heat
First law of thermal dynamics states that HEAT TRAVELS FROM HOT TO COLD. 95 degree outside air will flow through the
building materials to an indoor space at 75 degrees.
72 degree indoor heated air will flow through building materials to the outdoor space at 20 degrees.

The BTU
BTU Stands for British Thermal Unit
In the US it is the conventional unit of heat.
It is the amount of heat required to raise or lower one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit.

Heat Loads
There are several types of heat loads: Sensible heat is transmitted through:
Walls Ceilings Floors Windows Doors
Sensible heat is the heat you can measure.

Heat Loads
Latent heat is transferred through: Ventilation Infiltration Duct Loss or Gain
Latent heat is mostly in moisture, but it is heat you can not measure.

Ventilation
Air that is being taken into a structure to supply air for heating systems.
Air exchanges are done to remove odors, fumes, etc. Keep in mind all humans exhale Carbon Dioxide that in high levels can make people sleepy.
Ventilation is planned infiltration.

Infiltration
Infiltration is air that leaks in and out from cracks around windows, doors and spaces in the walls.

Additional Heat Loads
Solar Heat Load The radiant heat from the sun through
windows and doors. Solar heat load varies based on the time of
the day.

Additional Heat Loads
Electrical Heat loads from electrical devices Lights Motors
Electrical heat loads five off 3.414 BTU/Hr of heat per Watt.

Duct Loss or Gain
The heat loss picked up from the air temperature around the duct.
A duct passing through an unconditioned space will pick up heat or give up heat from the surrounding air.
![Page 12: HVAC523 Heat Gain. Heat First law of thermal dynamics states that HEAT TRAVELS FROM HOT TO COLD. 95 degree outside air will flow through the building](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022082610/56649dc65503460f94aba66b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Duct Loss and Gain
Ducts running through unconditioned spaces must be insulated to prevent picking up heat.
Air conditioning ducts will sweat where the dew point is high. Basements Attics Outside areas such as roofs and outside
walls

Duct Loss and Gain
Ducts run through attics will reduce the system capacity for both heating and cooling. Duct insulation allows some heat transfer or
leakage.
Multipliers (magic numbers) are used to compensate for duct leakage. A good rule of thumb is 10%.

Surface Film Factor
Wind velocity has a wiping effect that removes heat from surfaces and is taken into consideration when calculating heat gain.
Wind velocity can also cause evaporative cooling and increase infiltration.

People Heat Load
The average person gives off 300 BTU/Hr.
This is both latent and sensible heat.

Latent Heat Loads
Humidity in the Air
To remove one pound of water from the air requires 970 BTU’s

ACCA Manual J
The Air Conditioning Contractors Association has developed formulas and guidelines for calculating the heat load.
The outdoor temperature must be known.
This outdoor temperature is called the “Design Conditions”.

ACCA Manual J
To properly design a system you should know both the “Winter Design Temperature” and the “Summer Design Temperature”.
In the Hartford area the summer design temperature is 95 degrees.
In the Hartford area the winter design temperature is 0 degrees
