24
Q

pitot tube is

A

an air pressure measuring device

25
Q

anemometer

A

measures air velocity

26
Q

velometer

A

an airflow meter that takes readings in feet per minute and is used for taking direct readings of air velocities

27
Q

Determine the velocity for 0.04” wc

A

v = 4005 x root 0.04
= 4005 x 0.2
= 801 fpm

28
Q

Determine air volume flow rate

A

cfm = fpm x (A in inches / 144 in2/ft2)

29
Q

Find the amount of heat (total heat transfer)

A

Q = 4.5 x cfm x delta(h)

delta(h) = change in btu

30
Q

Find the amount of sensible heat (sensible heat transfer)

A

Q = 1.08 x cfm x delta(f)

delta(f) = change in temperature
