7.4 Average Air Density. Determine the test air density rtest (lbm/ft3[kg/m3]) using dry-bulb temperature Tdb (°F [°C]), barometric pressure Pb (in. Hg [kPa]), and wet-bulb temperature Twb (°F [°C]) by referencing the ASHRAE Psychrometric Analysi…
7.5 Calculated Saturation Temperatures. Thermophysical properties are to be determined from the current version of NIST Reference Fluid Thermodynamic and Transport Properties Database (REFPROP) 1 or from a reference that provides compliant properties…
14 7.6 Liquid subcooling entering expansion valve (all methods), use Equation 7-12.
7.7 Vapor superheat leaving unit cooler (Methods 1, 2), use Equation 7-13.
7.8 Enthalpies
7.9 Temperature Difference Calculation
7.10 To calculate Enthalpy Difference of air (Methods 1, 3), use Equation 7-16.
