Hello All

Usually they use 400 cfm per ton, but this needs the delta T between suply ait temperature and cooling set point to be about 27F, so if the set point was 75F then the suply air has to ba about 48F
I know the suply air usualy is about 55 to 58 F
shall we have to go with this rule of thumb 400cfm/ton or go with program result?
Thanks
 
You're leaving out the latent heat removal that's done at the cooling coil. Not all of the capacity goes into reducing dry bulb temperature.

Look at a psych chart and a typical coil curve.

Good on ya,
