This guide delves into key concepts essential for understanding HVAC systems, focusing on radiation principles, fluid dynamics, and psychrometric processes. Learn how to review radiation types (short-wave and long-wave), calculate heat transfer using fundamental equations, and utilize psychrometric charts for HVAC processes. The guide covers important topics, including sensible heat ratio, adiabatic mixing, and practical applications in single and multiple zone systems. This resource is designed for professionals seeking to enhance their knowledge in HVAC system design and operation.

Objectives • Finish radiation and fluid dynamics review • Learn more about psychrometrics • Describe equations for psychometric processes • Plot processes on psychrometric chart • Use protractor to calculate SHR
Short-wave & long-wave radiation • Short-wave – solar radiation • <3mm • Glass is transparent • Does not depend on surface temperature • Long-wave – surface or temperature radiation • >3mm • Glass is not transparent • Depends on surface temperature
Figure 2.10 • α + ρ + τ = 1 α = ε for gray surfaces
Combining Convection and Radiation • Both happen simultaneously on a surface • Slightly different temperatures • Often can use h = hc + hr
Fluid Flow in Pipes and Ducts • Analogy to steady-flow energy equation • Consider incompressible, isothermal flow • What is friction loss? [Pa]
Alternate calculation for W • PV = mRT (IGL) • What do we know about R ratio? • P = Pw + Pa R = gas constant P = pressure V = volume T = absolute temperature W = humidity ratio Subscripts: w is water vapor, a is dry air
Calculation of psychometric quantities • For an ideal gas, • hda = ∫cpadT, hw = ∫cpwdT • So, hda = cp,dat which assumes a reference state of 0 °F or 0 °C – Tables A4 • Note different reference • hw = cpwt + hg0 • h = cp,dat + W(cpwt + hg0) Or you can use: • h = cpt + W∙hg0, cp = cp,da + Wcpw cp = specific heat h = enthalpy T = absolute temperature t = temperature W = humidity ratio Subscripts: w is water vapor, a is dry air, g is saturated water vapor
Adiabatic mixing • Governing equation External heat
Fog formation above rivers Solution is in Psychometric chart
Humidification hw Specific enthalpy of water added to system hg Specific enthalpy of saturated water vapor
