Hvac Formula - Calculation of Heating, Cooling Degree Days

The document discusses the calculation of heating and cooling degree days, which are used to estimate annual heating and cooling loads. Heating degree days are calculated by subtracting the daily average outdoor temperature from a balance point temperature, while cooling degree days are calculated by subtracting the balance point from the average. Formulas are provided to estimate annual heating and cooling loads based on peak loads, degree days, and temperature differences.

Heating Degree Days (HDD) for a particular climate is obtained by subtracting each day's mean
outdoor dry bulb temperature from the balance point temperature this result is the number of HDDs 3 7 0 6
for that day. For example, if the maximum and minimum outdoor dry bulb temperatures of a place
were80Fand20Frespectively,andthebalancepointtemperaturewere65F,thenHDDoftheplace 6 5
