Assignment- HVAC

1) Lecture Hall -1 of the KDU is proposed to be air conditioned and you are
requested to do the heat load. Preliminary survey is already completed
and attached with a sketch for your convenience. Annex 1.
Lecture Hall is situated in the second level of the new building and below
is air condition space and above is unconditioned space. Attach room in
left side is also unconditioned. Occupancy would be 50 people, 20 Nos
computers and you may take electrical load for lighting as 16 W/m 2.
i. Calculate U factor for the roof. Roof slab comprises followings.
150mm concrete slab having 12.7mm thickness Gypsum plaster below
and 9.53mm thickness Cement plaster above.
Acoustic tile (0.012m thickness) ceiling
ii. Walls are Concrete blocks, three oval core (203mm thickness) sand and
gravel aggregate, having 9.5mm thickness Cement plaster and 12.7mm
Gypsum plaster. Calculate U factor for the wall.
iii. Calculate grand total heat.
iv. Determine the required air conditioner

size from BTU/h.

Note:
Lecture Hall occupies from 08.00 HRS to 16 HRS. Assume
calculation time is 12.00 noon.
Windows are single glass clear, without shading.
Treat the Doors as Windows for heat transfer
Ventilation: Fresh air requirement is 8 L/S/P.
Indoor 240C and outdoor 320C
You may take suitable lighting fixture arrangement and state that
clearly.

Submit above detailed cooling load calculation on or before 8 th

Friday, April, 2016.
