Heat load help!
I’ve got an unusual heat load calc for you guys, the room is domestic, effectively 4 external walls, 5m by 8m, 5m south facing, the ceilings starts at 3m and slopes up to 6m and 2m x 4m double glassed roof window, the walls and ceiling are without any insulation and there is little opportunity to add any. Also small fridge & freezer, DW, hob, oven and heating boiler. Would 150w/m2 (6kW) cut it?
Any help welcome.

Re: Heat load help!
On roughly estimation ,it's not enough with 150W/m2;suggest use higher standard 250~300W/m2,you can make a exact calcualtion if you have the heat transfer coefficient of wall and roof and windows. Only for your ref.

Re: Heat load help!
i thinck 200 w/m2 would be enough , true like LC says it's important what are the walls make of, and more important, how mutch heat load there is in the room, because that must be added to the calc

What is the configuraion on the glassed roof area? I can't picture it.

Re: Heat load help!
I would go with 250 m2 and insist on cooling only.

Re: Heat load help!
Frank, I like your new avatar. What did you say, I lost my train of thoughts. I guess we were talking about overheating or lots of heat or warmth or something like that...
