Electronic equipment heat gains in buildings.
Author(s) : WILKINS C. K.
Summary
Heat gain from equipment is an important factor in determining the overall cooling load of a space or building. The results of extensive measurements indicate that the actual heat gain from equipment is significantly less than that indicated on equipment nameplates. Measurements at panels that serve large areas of office buildings allowed for the analysis of equipment diversity factors. Results indicated that engineers who rely on nameplate data alone will grossly oversize HVAC systems.
