Print Cooling Detail

The section describes what is printed when ☐ Print Cooling Detail is checked in the Print Load Calculations dialog box.

Cooling Load Details - System

The Cooling Loads Details - System table lists each zone in the project and a breakdown of the system cooling loads by type.

The load values are based upon the listed system peak value. The system peak includes the ventilation and plenum loads.

Lighting, equipment, and people loads are not dependent upon the time of day. They are listed in the Cooling Loads Details - Room table to save space.

Each load lists two values. The first is the load in Btu/h, the second is the load as a percentage of the total system cooling load.

  •  Location All of the zones in the project. Zones that are part of a zone are indented and listed below the parent zone. If ☐ Print System Loads for Rooms is checked in the Print Load Calculations command, the rooms in the project will also be listed.

  •  Peak The month and hour when the peak system cooling load occurs.

  •  Plenum The plenum cooling load.
