A building has the following dimensions and characteristics: footprint of 100 ft x 50 ft and 8 stories, 10 feet floor-to-floor height for each floor. The window-wall ratio is 33 Walls have an overall R-value of 20, windows have a U-value of 0.6. The roof has an R value of 30. Building is programmed as all office with 150 square feet per person

Part a

Calculate the design heating load, Q. in BTUH, assuming heating design conditions of 74 degree F inside and 10 degree Foutside and 15 CFM ventilation air per occupant.

Part b

Calculate the annual estimated fuel use in therms, assuming 3,800 degree-days (NYC), 80% efficient boiler, using natural gas at 100,000 BTU/Therm

Q windows annual =
Q wall annual =
Q roof annual
Q infiltration annual =

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
