Thank you for being here today.
For Everyone’s Consideration
What seems to be the problem?
Who teaches psychrometrics on a normal basis?
Why is this area not taught more?
Confusion?
Misunderstanding?
Intimidation?
Let’s eliminate the confusion –
Right Now.

Let’s Do Some Quick Math
Qs = Quantity of Sensible Heat
64,000 Net Output = 1.08 x CFM x ▲T
64,000 = 1.08 x CFM x 40
1481 CFM
64,000 = 1.08 x 1,481 x 40
Continuing
QL = Quantity of Latent Heat
QL = .68 x CFM x ▲Grains of Moisture
QL = .68 x CFM x 0
QL = 0
QT = 4.5 x CFM x ▲Enthalpy
QT = 4.5 x CFM x (31.62 – 21.79)
QT = 4.5 x 1,481 x 9.83
QT = 65,911
64,000/65,512 = 97.69% or 2.31% difference
Let’s Do Some More Quick Math
Qs = Quantity of Sensible Heat
23,680 = 1.08 x CFM x ▲T
23,680 = 1.08 x 1,096 x 20
1.08 x 20 = 21.6
23,680/21.6 = 1,096 CFM
Continuing
QL = Quantity of Latent Heat
QL = .68 x CFM x ▲Grains of Moisture
QL = .68 x 1,096 x 8
QL = 5,962 Btu
QT = 4.5 x CFM x ▲Enthalpy
QT = 4.5 x 1,096 x (26.80 – 20.58)
QT = 4.5 x 1,096 x 6.22
QT = 30,677
29,600/30,677 = 96.49% or 3.51% difference
