CALCULATIONOFHEATINGDEGREEDAYS
Heating Degree Days (HDD) for a particular climate is obtained by subtracting each day's mean
outdoor dry bulb temperature from the balance point temperature this result is the number of HDDs 3 7 0 6
for that day. For example, if the maximum and minimum outdoor dry bulb temperatures of a place
were80Fand20Frespectively,andthebalancepointtemperaturewere65F,thenHDDoftheplace 6 5
forthatparticulardaywouldhavebeen65[(80+20)/2]=15.Ifthemeanoutdoordrybulbtemperature

to0.

A preliminary estimate of annual heating load, using degree day method, can be obtained by the
followingformula:
H=PHLx24xHDD/T
