Total Cooling Load = Total Transmission load + Product load + Internal
Load + Equipment Load + Infiltration load
Safety Factor (10% to 20%)
Refrigeration Load = Total Cooling Load + 10% to 20% of Total cooling
load (Safety Factor)
Refrigeration cooling capacity sizing
1TR=12000 BTU
1TR= 3.516 kW
Refrigeration capacity = Refrigeration Load / Running Hours
