Abstract
The calculation of “heating and cooling loads” often is a borderline problem that lies between the design of buildings and that of equipment. The design of a heating system, for example, is a primary concern of the equipment engineer, but the size and type of equipment required are greatly influenced by the type of building construction. A similar situation exists with refrigeration and other installations involving heat exchange. This interdependence makes it desirable for the building designer to understand the relation between structural characteristics and equipment load.
