VRF AHU Dx Coils
Selection Complex Solution by air quality + concerning building load calculation
Heating/cooling loads involved with a building include outside attributes such as external temp, solar radiation,
wind and humidity as well as inside attributes such as human heat, heat from lighting and electronic
appliances, in addition to loads generable thru exterior walling structure and windows of the building. Such
architectural/environmental elements cause heating/cooling loads to take place.
