HVAC FORMULAS CFM = ______BTU/Hr / ( 1.08 x Temperature Difference) TON OF REFRIGERATION - The amount of heat required to melt a ton (2000 lbs.) of ice at 32°F 288,000 BTU/24 hr. 12,000 BTU/hr. APPROXIMATELY 2 inches in Hg. (mercury) = 1 psi WORK = Force (energy exerted) X Distance Example: A 150 lb. man climbs a flight of stairs 100 ft. high Work = 150 lb. X 100 ft. Work = 15,000 ft.-lb. ONE HORSEPOWER = 33,000 ft.-lb. of work in 1 minute ONE HORSEPOWER = 746 Watts CONVERTING KW to BTU: 1 KW = 3413 BTU’s Example: A 20 KW heater (20 KW X 3413 BTU/KW = 68,260 BTU’s) CONVERTING BTU to KW 3413 BTU’s = 1 KW Example: A 100,000 BTU/hr. oil or gas furnace (100,000 / 3413 = 29.3 KW) COULOMB = 6.24 X 1018 (1 Coulomb = 1 Amp) OHMS LAW = E = I x R I = E / R R = E / I Where: E = voltage (emf) I = Amperage (current) R = Resistance (load) WATTS (POWER) = volts x amps or P = E x I P(in KW) = (E x I) / 1000 U FACTOR = Reciprocal of R factor 1 / R = U Example: If R = 19: U = 1 / 19 = .05 (BTU’s transferred / 1 Sq.Ft. / 1ºF / 1 Hour) VA (how the secondary of a transformer is rated) = volts X amps Example: 24V x .41A = 10 VA ONE FARAD CAPACITY = 1 amp. stored under 1 volt of pressure MFD (microfarad) = 1 MFD = 1 Farad / 1,000,000 LRA (Locked rotor amps) = LRA = FLA x 5 (NOTE: This is a commonly used rule-of-thumb, not a direct conversion) TEV (shown in equilibrium) 46.7# (Bulb Pressure) = 9.7# (Spring Pressure) + 37# (Evaporator Pressure) Where: Bulb Pressure = opening force Spring and Evaporator Pressures = closing forces RPM of motor = (60Hz x 120) / (No. of Poles) 1800 RPM Motor – slippage makes it about 1750 3600 RPM Motor – slippage makes it about 3450 DRY AIR = 78.0% Nitrogen 21.0% Oxygen 1.0% Other Gases WET AIR = Same as dry air plus water vapor SPECIFIC DENSITY = 1 / Specific Volume SPECIFIC DENSITY OF AIR = 1 / 13.33 = .075 lbs./cu.ft. STANDARD AIR = 24 Specific Heat (
