PIPE Add'l materials (51-100)

In air conditioning, it indicates either a volume or a site without a partition or a partitioned room or group of rooms.

Space

It is an enclosed or partitioned space that is usually treated as a single load. If conditioned, it often has an individual control system. What is this?

Room

It represents the rate, in Btu/hr or W, at which heat enters a conditioned space from an external source or is released to the space from an internal source during a given time interval.

Space heat gain

It is the rate, in Btu/hr or W, at which heat must be removed from a conditioned space so as to maintain a constant temperature and acceptable relative humidity. Its sensible load component is equal to the sum of the convective heat transfer from the surfaces of the building envelope, furnishings, occupants, appliances, and equipment. How do you call this?

Space cooling load

A process that the body uses to convert energy in food into heat and work, or it is the process that determines the rate at which energy is converted from chemical to thermal form within the body.

Metabolism

What is a body insulation that is usually described as a single equivalent uniform layer over the whole body?

Clothing

What is the insulating value of clothing?

Clo units

Which of the following is the value of clo units?

1 clo = 0.88

What is the basic index used to describe the radiant conditions in a space, it is the mean temperature of individual; exposed surfaces in the environment?

Mean Radiant Temperature

In order to avoid cavitation in a centrifugal pump, which of the following is true?

Installation NPSH ≥ pump NPSH
