Design Parameter Formula Head Static : P
= Pressure (psi)
W
= Density of Water (pound/ftΒ³) = Water Density 1000 kg/mΒ³ = Water Density 62.298 pound/ftΒ³
h
= Static Head (feet) w p= π₯β 144 p=
62.298 pound/ftΒ³ π₯1 144
p = 0.433 psi
Conversion
:
1 psi
= 0.069 bar
1 bar
= 14.5 psi
Example
: p=
w π₯β 144
p=
62.298 pound/ftΒ³ π₯ 98.4 144
p = 42.57 psi p = 2.937 bar
Cooling Load Fluid Design : m
= Mass flow rate of fluid (kg/s)
Cp
= Specific heat capacity (kJ/(Kg*K))
ΞT
= Temperature Difference (Β°C)
p
= mass Density (kg/mΒ³)
V
= Volume flow rate (mΒ³/s)
Q
= Load Capacity (k j/s) (kW) π=ππ₯π π = π π₯ πΆπ π₯ π₯π π = π π₯ π π₯ πΆπ π₯ π₯π
Design Parameter Conversion
:
1 k j/s
= 1 kW
1 kW
= 0.2844 TR
1 TR
= 3.52 kW
Example
:
V
= 360 mΒ³/h (0.1 mΒ³/s)
p
= 1000 kg/mΒ³
Cp
= 4.2 (kJ/(Kg*K))
ΞT

Cooling Load Heat Transfer Design
:
ΞT
= Temperature Difference (Β°C)
A
= Heat Transfer Area (mΒ²)
U
= Overall heat transfer coefficient (W/(mΒ²*K)
