Units of flow rate in HVAC

In the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) industry, accurately measuring airflow is critical for designing and maintaining efficient systems. Several units are used to quantify airflow rates, with CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) and cubic meters per hour (m³/h) being among the most common. CFM CFM, or Cubic Feet per Minute, is a widely used unit in the HVAC industry in the United States and other countries that follow imperial measurement systems. It represents the volume of air being moved per...

Units in HVAC

In HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems, capacity refers to the system's ability to heat or cool a space. The most common units for measuring HVAC capacity are BTU (British Thermal Unit) and kW (kilowatt). In the following paragraphs, we will explain these units in HVAC systems. BTU (British Thermal Unit) A BTU is a unit of heat energy. It is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit....

Brief and useful explanation of the HVAC system

HVAC, or Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning, is a system designed to provide thermal comfort and acceptable indoor air quality. Here's a brief breakdown: 1. Heating (H): - Furnaces or boilers are commonly used to generate heat. - Heat can be distributed through radiators, underfloor systems, or forced air. 2. Ventilation (V): - Involves the exchange of indoor and outdoor air to maintain air quality. - Mechanical ventilation systems use fans and ducts to circulate and filter air. 3. Air Conditioning (AC): - Uses various methods (e.g., refrigeration...

What is Fin Space or FPI?

Fin space, one of the important factors in coil’s design What is Fin Space or FPI? In the context of coil design, "fin space" refers to the gap between adjacent fins on a coil. It is a crucial parameter as it affects the heat transfer efficiency of the coil. A smaller fin space generally increases the surface area available for heat transfer but may also lead to higher air resistance. "Fin per inch" (FPI) is a measurement that indicates the number of fins...
