STEP 1
Determine air flow req'd for each space, for total size of fan unit(s) in tons.
Classroom 8100sf / 350sf/ton = 23.2 tons Classroom 8100sf / 350sf/ton = 23.2 tons
STEP 2
Size the fan unit by approximating the size of the coil.
o
A. For 20 T, use 400 cfm/ton (rule of thumb) for air capacity:
Calculate: 60 tons x 400 cfm/ton = 24,000 cfm
1 unit: 48 sf = 6.9' .... use 1 unit with 7' x 7' coil x 14'L
2 units: (2) at 24 sf = 4.9' .... use 2 units with 5' x 5' coil ea. x 10'L
3 units: (3) at 16 sf = 4' .... use 3 units with 4' x 4' coil ea. x 8'L
Discuss:
- Delta T for Austin: 75F to 55F
STEP 3 - Speed at air coil.
- Machine access / maintenance.
Size the coil area and initial supply duct:

coil width
1 unit option: 24sf = 4.9' .... use 5' x 5' duct (big!) 2 x coil width
2 unit option: 12sf ea. = 3.46' .... use 3.5' x 3.5' duct ea. A.H.U.
3 unit option: 8sf ea. = 2.83 .... use 3' x 3' duct ea.
