 The conditions for outdoor and indoor are assumed to be:

Indoor:
Tin = 18°, with relative humidity 50%,

Outdoor:
Tout = 35°C, with relative humidity 30%,

∆w = 0.00415

∆T = 17◦c

 ∆T between the inside walls and the building =0.

 The height of the building = 4m.
 The height of the available height = 3.5m.
 Inside wall thickness=10 cm
 Outside wall thickness= 41 cm.

From table(4 − 15)∗ - South-west: CLTD =18°C (for type E wall and at 16 solar time)

*Refrigerant and air conditioning system textbook

Area= area of the wall =18.2 𝑚2

Q wall = (0.481)*(18)*(17)

= 147.18 watt

For the glass :

Qg-tr = Ug*Ag*∆T
Ug = 2.419 (for Aluminum thermal breaks and 5mm bronze, 6mm gray,6mm air
space)

Qg-tr = (2.419)*(1.7*4.54)*(17°C)

=317.38 watt

Qg-s = Ag*SHGF*S.C*CLF

SHGF = 700 W/m2 ,From table (4-10) ,S.C = 0.57 ,From table (4-11)

CLF = 0.82 , From table (4-12)

Qg-s = (1.7*4.54)*(700)*(0.57)*(0.52)

= 1601 watt

Internal loads:

Lights:
Q lights = lump rate *Fn*Fb*CLF*number of lights

Fn = Fb = 1.0 , CLF = 0.70 from table (4-6)

2 lights: Qlights = 2*(197.67) *(1.0) *(1.0) *(0.70)

= 276.73 watt

People:
Q sensible = SHG *# of persons*CLF

Q latent = LHD*#of persons

SHG= 82.5 from table (4-7)

CLF = 0.84 from table (4-9)

Q s = (49.6)*(2)*(0.84) = 83.3 watt

LHG = 67.5 from table (4-7)

Q l = (32.5)*(2) = 65 watt

Equipment:

1 scanner, 2 PC Computer, 1printer, 2 Computer screen , Miscellaneous load

Total power = 3240 w

Infiltration:
