Humidification Loads Will Exceed 90% RH in Duct at Temperature Indicated. Booster Humidification Is Recommended

Uploaded by

S Das

This document discusses determining the maximum humidification load for fan coil air systems that mix return air and outside air to achieve a final mixed air temperature. The maximum load occurs at a specific outside air temperature other than the maximum design temperature. Tables 30-2 and 30-4 can be used to look up the maximum humidification load given the mixed air temperature and required relative humidity, assuming standard outside air conditions. An example problem demonstrates looking up the maximum load of 11.4 pounds per 1,000 CFM for a system with a 55°F mixed air temperature and calculating the total maximum load.
