Reference Calculations
BTUH= BTU( British Thermal Unit) per hour
CFM= air
ow, cubic feet/minute
COP= coef
cient of performance = BTUH output/BTUH input
DB= dry bulb temperature (°F)
EAT= entering air temperature, Fahrenheit (dry bulb/wet bulb)
EER= energy ef
ciency ratio = BTUH output/Watt input
EPT= external pipe thread
ESP= external static pressure (inches w.g.)
EWT= entering water temperature
GPM= water
ow in U.S. gallons/minute
HE= total heat of extraction, BTUH
HC= air heating capacity, BTUH
HR= total heat of rejection, BTUH
HWC= hot water generator (desuperheater) capacity, Mbtuh
IPT= internal pipe thread
KW= total power unit input, kilowatts
LAT= leaving air temperature, °F
LC= latent cooling capacity, BTUH
LWT= leaving water temperature, °F
MBTUH= 1000 BTU per hour
S/T= sensible to total cooling ratio
SC= sensible cooling capacity, BTUH
TC= total cooling capacity, BTUH
WB= wet bulb temperature (°F)
WPD= waterside pressure drop (psi & ft. of hd.)

Ext Static Pressure
Water Pressure Drop
Airflow (L/s) = CFM x 0.472
Water Flow (L/s) = gpm x 0.0631
ESP (Pa) = ESP (in of wg) x 249
PD (kPa) = PD (ft of hd) x 2.99
Hot Water Generator capacities (HWC) are based on potable water
ow rate of 0.4 gpm per nominal equipment ton and 90°F
entering potable water temperature.
