The section describes what is printed when Print Psychrometrics is checked in the Print Load Calculations dialog box. Print Load Calculation Dialog Box Psychrometrics An individual Psychrometrics table is printed for each zone selected in the Zone or Room to Print list. If the whole building is selected, a table will be printed for every zone. The values in this table are taken directly from or calculated based upon values in the various Building Definition commands. The key values are Coil Dew Point, Reheat, and Humidification. Calculation Month: The month with the highest humidity that is used in the calculation. Calculation Hour: It is assumed that the highest humidity happens at 4pm. This row is for informational purposes only. Outside Air Airflow: The total ventilation airflow for the zone. Includes additional air to account for any air lost due to Return Duct Leakage set in the Zone List command. Dry Bulb Temperature: Set using the OSA High Dry field for the Calculation Month in the Project Info command. Wet Bulb Temperature: Set using the OSA High Wet field for the Calculation Month in the Project Info command. Humidity Ratio: Calculated based upon the Dry Bulb Temperature and Wet Bulb Temperature. Total Load: The sum of the Sensible Load and Latent Load. Sensible Load: The sensible ventilation load. Latent Load: The latent ventilation load. Return Air at Diffusers Airflow: The airflow at the return diffusers. Dry Bulb Temperature: The return air temperature at the diffusers. Set using the Cooling Temperature field in the Zone List command. Wet Bulb Temperature: The return air wet bulb temperature at the diffusers.

Dry Bulb Temperature: The temperature gain in the airflow based upon the Total Load. Total Load: The load in the plenum. See the Print Cooling Detail section for more information.
