For a stated sensible-heat exercise, use heat gain = 1.08 × airflow × temperature rise. At 1,000 cfm and 10,800 Btu/h of duct heat gain, what is the temperature rise?
- A1°F
- B20°F
- 10°F
- D100°F
Where to look it up
Explicit exercise assumptions; not a universal code requirement.
Why C is correct
Temperature rise = 10,800 / (1.08 × 1,000) = 10°F. The supplied approximation is for this exercise, not a universal limit for a particular insulation thickness or duct length.
