1.08 fudge factor is density of air in lbs/cu-ft * specific heat of air * 60 minutes in hour. 0.075 lbs/cu-ft * 0.24 BTU/lb * 60 mins/hr. = 1.08. It is temperature and pressure dependent. Formula works for heating where there is not any phase change occurring. Air conditioning cooling has phase change (latent heat) of humidity in air, turned to condensed water which consumes some of the air conditioner's cooling btu's capacity. Direct electric heater input power is very near 100% efficiency on power transfer to air flow, where air conditioning cooling from evaporator has a lot of other factors impacting heat absorption by evaporator coil.

Thank you for explaining the factor. Just add F to specific heat units.😊

Speaking on the convince factor. I know it changes with the starting temperature. How does altitude affect it?
@WillieMakeit4 ай бұрын
question how do you find the delta T? do you run the furnace and take the split temp between the supply and return duct? or do you go,by this being a constant split. I think i remember from school it was rule of thumb and it was 17 degree f and between 22 degree f. would have the same question for finding current cfm
@KingenuityLLC4 ай бұрын
You are correct, you would find the actual delta T by taking the difference of the return air and the supply air. A typical value that I have always used for a "typical system in ideal conditions" is 20 degrees F.

How come the needed CFM increases with decreasing delta T?
@KingenuityLLC7 ай бұрын
Great question! It has to do with the delivery of energy. A lower delta T means that there is less heat transfer so you need more movement of that lower energy. Let’s say that we have to heat a volume of air in a room. To do that we have to add energy, in this case BTUH’s. If we added very hot air (therefore with a high Delta T) we don’t need to move the air as fast because the room will come up to temperature quickly because of all of the energy that we have at our disposal. Now if we take the same room and blow in air that is just a little bit warmer than the room air (low delta T), we don’t have as much energy to bring the room up to temperature so we need to move more of that air lower energy air to add up to the total energy that the room needs to keep temperature. Another way to think of this is with a bicycle. Let’s say that you want to ride your bike up a hill in 2 minutes exactly and there are two scenarios. The first scenario is that you have super strong legs (high delta T). The second scenario is that you skipped leg day (low delta T). Both require you to pedal at a certain speed to get up the hill in 2 minutes; pedal speed in RPM (CFM air flow). With super strong legs we can use a harder gear and pedal up the hill in two minutes using less RPM’s. With weaker legs we have to use an easier gear which will require us to pedal faster but with less applied force to make it up the hill in 2 minutes. Same hill, same time, different pedal speed based on the amount of strength (energy) that we have. More strength = slower pedal required. Less strength - faster pedal. Hope this helps. If not please let me know!
