THEORY OF INFRARED

Infrared radiation is electromagnetic radiation which is generat-ed in a hot source (quartz lamp, quartz tube, or metal rod) by vibra-tion and rotation of molecules. The resuiting energy is controlled anddirected specifically to and on people or objects. This energy is notabsorbed by air, and does not create heat until it is absorbed by anopaque object.

The sun is the basic energy source. Energy is projected93,000,000 miles through space to heat the earth by the infraredprocess. This infrared energy travels at the speed of light. and con-verts to heat upon contact with a person, a building, the floor, theground or any other opaque object. There is, however, no ultravio-let component (suntanning rays) in electric infrared.

Electric infrared energy traveis in straight lines from the heatsource. This energy is directed into specific pattems by opticallydesigned reflectors. Infrared, like light, travels outward from the heat

source, and diffuses as a function of the square of the distance.Intensity, therefore, wouid decrease in a proportional manner. So,at 20‘ from the heat source, intensity of the energy concentrationis 114 the intensity developed at 10'. Also, at 20‘ distance from theheat source, the energy pattern of radiant heat will cover fourtimes the area compared to the energy pattern coverage at a 10‘distance.

For comfort heating, there must be reasonably even accumu-lated values of heat throughout the comfort zone. Proper mount-ing heights of the individual heaters, fixture spacing, reflector beampattems, and heat source wattage must be specified to generatethe proper heating levels at the task area. The amount of heatdelivered is also adjusted by input controllers or by thermostatswhich respond to surrounding temperature leveis and provide ON-OFF or PROPORTIONAL inputs.

ADVANTAGES OF ELECTRIC INFRARED1) HEATS PEOPLE WITHOUT HEATING AIR

Infrared travels through space and is absorbed by people andobjects in its path. Infrared is not absorbed by the air. With con-vection heating the air itself is warmed and circulated however,warm air always rises to the highest point of a building. WithInfrared heating, the wam1th is directed and concentrated at thefloor and people level where it is really needed.

2) ZONE CONTROL FLEXIBILITYInfrared heating is not dependent upon air movement like convec-tion heat. Infrared energy is absorbed solely at the area it is direct-ed. Therefore it is possible to divide any area into separate small-er zones and maintain a dilferent comfort level in each zone. Forexample, Zone A, with a high concentration of people, could bemaintained at a 70 degree comfort level while at the same timeZone B, a storage area, could be kept at 55 degrees or even tumedoff completely.

3) STAGINGAnother unique control feature of electric infrared that increasescomfort conditions and saves energy consumption is staging.Where most systems are either "fully ON” or “fully OFF" the stag-ing feature also allows only a portion of the equipments totalcapacity to be used. For example, a two-stage control would workas follows: During the first stage, one heat source in every fixturewould be energized. During the second stage, two heat sources inevery fixture would be energized. For further oontroi sophistication,a large area can be both zoned and staged. These systems, then,allow a more consistent and unifom1 means of maintaining a spe-cific comfort level and avoid the “peak 8- valley“ syndrome.

4} REDUCED OPERATING COSTSThe previous statements are advantages in themselves; but com-bined they account for an energyrfuel savings of up to 50 percent.Actual savings will vary from building to building depending on fac-tors such as insulation, ceiling height and type of construction.

5) INSTANT HEATElectric infrared produces virtually instant heat (See Page8,Graphs A, B, and C showing heat-up time of sources.) There isno need to wait for heat buildup. Tum the heaters on iust prior toheating requirements.

6) NEGLIGIBLE MAINTENANCEElectric infrared is strictty a resistance type heat. There are nomoving pans or motors to wear out; no air filters or lubricationrequired. Periodic cleaning of the reflectors and heat sourcerepiacement is all that will be required.

7) CLEANElectric infrared, like other fom1s of electric heating, is the cleanestmethod of heating. There are no by-products of combustion aswith fossil fuel buming units. Electric infrared adds nothing to theair nor takes anything from it.

8) SAFE- UL listed- No open flame- No moving parts to malfunction- No fuel lines to leak- No toxic by-products of combustion

9) EFFICIENTAll Electric Heaters convert energy to heat at 100% etficiency.

METHODS OF HEAT TRANSFER

Radiant or infrared heating provides a unique method of achieving adesired comfort level at a specified area. To best understand infraredheating, a comparison with ditferent methods of heat transfer shouldfirst be considered.Heat transfer can be accomplished by any one of three methods,CONDUCTION, CONVECTION or RADIANTCONDUCTION is placing an object in physical contact with the sourceof heat, such as a hot water bottle against the body.CONVECTION heat involves using a source of heat to WGFIT! the airand create a desired comfort level around people. Heated air iscirculated by fans or blowers to generally surround a normallyenclosed area. Home heating with a forced-air fumace is an exampleof CONVECTION heat

RADIANT, or INFRARED, heat uses invisible electromagnetic wavesfrom an energy source. The perfect example of electromagneticinfrared energy is heat from the sun. In an infrared system, theseenergy waves are created by a heat source - quartz lamp, quartztube, metal rod - which are directed by optically designed reflectorstoward or onto the object or person. A fire place is a more familiarform of radiant heat.

Page 6: Fostoria Electric Infrared Heating Manual

REFLECTORS AND BEAM PATTERNS

The method of transferring and directing the infrared energy to thework level is an important factor in the heating design and will great-ly affect the efficiency of the heating system.Reflectors are used to direct the radiant energy from the source to thework area. The higher the efficiency of the reflector, the more radiantenergy will be transferred to the work level. The reflector efficiency isinfluenced by the reflector material, its shape and contour.One method of measuring the efficiency of the material is by theemissivity factor. Emissivity is defined as the ratio of the amount ofenergy given off by radiation from a perfect black body; and is equalto the rate that material will absorb energy. The lower the emissivitynumber the less the material will absorb; hence the better the reflec-tivity of the material.Few materials can be considered for use as reflectors in comfortheating equipment. They must have high reflectivity of infrared ener-93!; resist corrosion, heat, moisture; and be easily cleaned.Aluminum is a common reflector material and must be anodized toprovide suitable reflectivity and withstand the heat levels present in

an infrared heater. Gold anodized aluminum is best suited as areflector materiai when the combined factors of cost, workability andweight are considered. Dirt will accumulate ON the surface and notIN the chemical composition with the gold. Within the infrared ener-gy portion of the spectn.rm, clear anodized aluminum reflectorsachieve approximately 89 percent reflectivity. Gold anodized alu-minum reflectors achieve approximately 92 percent reflectivity. Themost highly efficient reflector readily available is a specular gold plat-ed material, which is rarely used due to the prohibitive cost of gold.Fostoria uses gold anodized aluminum for reflectors and end caps intheir electric infrared heating equipment to provide the highest eco-nomical reflectivity and durability.

The beam pattem created by the reflector must be emphasized in theheating design. First the reflector must create a straight vertical linefrom the heat source to the work area. This is the pattem oenterline.Secondly, the reflector will converge or concentrate the energy into achoice of wide, medium or narrow pattems. In the electric infraredcomfort heat indusby, reflectors are also designed for asymmetric,symmetric and offset pattems as shown below.

EFFECTS of UNDER and OVER-VOLTAGE on HEAT ELEMENTS

Operating any of the three heating elements below their designvoltage has the following effects:

a) Lowers the delivered wattage.-‘heat output (see Graph D).b) Lowers the cotor temperature, therefore lowering the

infrared efficiency (See Graph E).c) Increases the life of the heating elements.

Operating any of the heating elements above their design voltageshould be avoided, and will have the opposite or reverse effect ofthose shown above.Some heating elements are intentionally used at under voltagedesign to increase the life of the elements. CAUTION should beused to insure that over-voltages do not exist in excess of 2 percent.Reducing the voltage by “X” percent does not reduce the wattage bythe same “X” percent. Refer to Graph D to detemtine proper volt-ageiwattage relationship. Graph D shows the relationship of wattagevs voltage for under-voltage applications.NOTE: The wattage reduction also vanes with the type of heatingelement.Usage of Graph D

1} Select proper graph (depending on the type of heat elementbeing derated}

2) Divide “voltage applied" by “element design voltage“ todetennine “percentage of applied voltage"

3) Find this percentage on the horizontal axis of the graph.Move vertically from that point until it intersects with plottedline. Move directly left at the point of intersection to corre-sponding “percent of wattage" as shown on vertical axis.

Example 1 - Graph "D" (Quartz Lamp)A #GF-1624H quartz lamp is designed to have an output of 1600watts at 240V. If operated at 208V (88.67% of design voltage) itwill have an output of (78% x 1600) = 1248 watts.

If operated at 120 volts (50% of design voltage) it will have anoutput of (33 ‘li3% x 1600) = 533 watts.

Example 2 - Graph "D" (Metal RocUQuar1z Tube)A #G7‘l-3489 quartz tube is designed to have an output of 1600watts at 240V. If operated at 208V (86.67% of design voltage} it willhave an output of (71 % x 1600} = 1136 watts.If operated at 120 volts (50.0% of design voltage) it will have anoutput of (25% x 1600) = 400 watts.To delemtine the effects of using less than design voltage on eitherof the three heat sources, Graph E shouid be oonsulted.For instance, if you wish to detem1ine the effects of using a quaitzlamp at half voltage, you can detem1ine the resultant wattage (33-1f3%) from Graph D; you can furtherpetermine the operating tem-perature, or color temperature, (3150 F) of the element from GraphE, and the resultant radiant efficiency (85%) from Graph E.By decreasing the voltage to 50 percent, there is not only a 213

reduction in actual wattage, but an additional decrease in RADIANTEFFICIENCY of 11 percent (96%-85%). Therefore the RADIANToutput is now onty 453 watts (85% of 533 watts) for a 1600 wattlamp operated at 1.-'2 voltage. This can direct you as to whether ornot the half voltage operation will be a good choice for your specificappiication.NOTE: It is seldom, but occasionally recommended to use

heat sources at a lower than design voltage.

INDOOR SPOT HEATINGAn indoor spot heating design will maintain an isolated comfort levelwithin a larger and cooler area. The ambient temperature of the sur-rounding areas must be considered to help determine proper input tothe work area, but will not in tum be affected by the isolated heatedarea. Many times a series of spot heat areas can be incorporatedwithin the total area to avoid maintaining a higher ambient tempera-ture throughout the building.Comfort levels will depend on the intensity of the wattage delivered.Wattage should be sufiicient to balance nomtal body heat losses,and will depend on ambient conditions. dress, and activity of theindividuals in the WDFK area.Since actual ambient temperatures are not maintained, severalfactors involved with indoor spot heating must be considered:

1) Beam patterns should always cross approximately 5’ abovefloor level to provide even heat at the work area.

2) Avoid installing only one fixture directly over a person's head ata work station.

3) All spot heat applications. regardless of area size, should heatthe person or object from two sides.

4) Fixtures should be mounted so that the long dimension of theheat pattem is parallel to the long dimensions of the area to beheated.

5) Spot heating systems can be controlled manually, or preferably,with a them1ostat located away from the direct pattem of theheaters. Percentage timers may be used, but are not as effective.

6) Avoid mounting fixtures at heights less than 8‘.

The estimator must also have the following specific infomwation avail-able before calculating the heating load and fixture layout:1) Design voltage and phase to be employed.

2) Minimum practiwl mounting height for the heating equipment.

4) Specific statement of the heating task including the design tem-perature required.

Calculation Method for Indoor Spot Heat1 ) If there is no heat in the building, determine the lowest potential

outside design temperature and add 15 degrees to an'ive at thelowest inside temperature. (Please see table 4, pages 21-24 foradditional infonnation.)

2) Determine the desired temperature to be maintained at thework area.

3) Subtract (1) from (2) to find the change in temperature levelrequired or temperature rise.

4) Find (3) above ( or the closest number to it) in Column 1 of Table1 , page 9. Select the “watts per square foot required" for the typeof building and appropriate fixture mounting height.

5) Multiply (4) above by the total square feet of the area to be heat-ed. This determines the total watts required.

6) Refer to the Heat Element and Fixture Selection Chart, pg. 5Under“Key,“ select “Indoor” and “Mounting Height“. (eg. 1, AthruE) Next, select the type of element and fixture best suited for themounting height. Quartz Lamps are recommended for mostapplications. Note: ln cases where the mounting height can bevaried, the lowest practical mounting height (eg. An B‘ - 12' range)should be selected.

7) Increase the square footage of the area to be heated by 25%.(The increase in 25% is designed to ensure that the final layouthas overlapping infrared that allows for a person or object to beheated from two different sides). From the slide guide, follow thechart to indicate the approximate floor coverage for the heaterand heat pattem selected in Step (6).

8) Divide the total square feet of the area to be heated by thesquare foot coverage of the heat pattem found in (7). This willd8t8l’l"l1il’18 approximate number of heaters for the application.(Note: Do not exceed the width or length of the area when fig-uring total square feet for the fixture heat pattem).

9) To detemiine the wattage per heater, divide the number ofheaters above into the total wattage load figured in Step 5.

10) To detemwine wattage per element, divide total wattage per heater(9) by the number of elements within each heater (1,2 or 3).

TOTAL AREA HEATINGLead-in to Calculationi'Layout Guides for ‘Total Area‘ Heating

In electric infrared heating for ‘total area‘ heat design, the actual fix-ture layout parallels closely the approach used in a general lightingsystem, but without as much pemiissible latitude. The allowablerange of air temperature people accept as "comfortable" is very lim-ited. Deviations of a few degrees from the preferred comfort tem-perature greatly affect a feeling of being too warm or too cold. Forthis reason, assumptions or rough approximations of critical factorsin an indoor total heating system design must be minimized.In electric infrared heating systems, it is important to know that air

temperatures can be lower than temperatures with conventionalheating systems, while giving the same degree of comfort to theoccupants. The reason is that much of the heating affect on theoccupants comes directly from the radiant energy produced by theheating elements. The infrared system also makes the temperatureof the floor and surfaces higher than the surrounding air temperature.

The function of an electric infrared ‘Total Area‘ heating system is tosupply the tight amount of heat where needed to maintain a constantdesired comfort level. An effective heating system biings the roomsurfaces and air up to temperature and holds them constant despitechanges in outside air temperature or variations in heat losses. If theinfrared equipment is wrefully selected and properly installed (to pro-ject heat downward in a uniform distribution pattem over the floorarea}, excellent ‘Total Area‘ heating efiiciency can be expected.

The following CalculationfLayout Guides for ‘Total Area‘ Heating pro-vide complete methods for determining the necessary heating load,proper equipment selection, and the exact fixture layout for an elec-tric infrared heating system.Copies of this Data Entry Form are available.

We can provide this ser-vice over the phone in minutes and later send you a written confirming printout. The above fom"i should be used to manually compute theapproximate indoor heat loss. This calculation determines the heat loss replacement necessary with convection heating. See page13to adjustthis heat loss using infrared.

Page 13: Fostoria Electric Infrared Heating Manual

TOTAL AREA HEATING (CONT'D.)

The hand calculation on the previous page is used to anive at thestandard heat loss when employing a conventional‘ forced hot airsystem. (Standard ASHRAE heat loss calculation may also be usedto arrive at this figure.) Because electric infrared heats objects direct-ly and not air, the amount of heat (KW) required will be less withinfrared than with the forced air system. To detennine how muchless KW is required we must evaluate those conditions that affect theefficiency of infrared heating over forced air heating.

To use the following table:

These conditions (A) (B) and (C) are listed below and are categorizedby values. These conditions are listed in order from "easiest to heatand retain warm air‘ to "hardest" to do so. As the ceiling heightincreases the “wasted” cubic feet needed to be heated with forced airalso increases. The poorer the insulation the more difficult it is toretain hot air heat. As these conditions worsen, the efficiency ofinfrared over forced air increases.

Pick the corresponding values for (A), (B) and (C) conditions and add them together.Example: An 18' ceiling height with an R factor of R-12 in the ceiling and an R-6 in the side walls wouldresult in values of 15, 28 and 12 respectively, or a total value of 55 for all 3 conditions.

SAMPLE 1 CALCULATION (CONT'D.)

The previous calculations are done to arrive at the standard heat loss heating over forced air heating. These conditions (A) (B) and (C) arewhen employing a conventional, forced hot air system. (Standard listed below and are categorized by values. These conditions are list-ASHRAE heat toss calculation may also be used to arrive at this fig- ed in order from "easiest to heat and retain wam"i air" to “hardest” toure.) Because electric infrared heats objects directly and not air, the do so. As the ceiling height increases, the “wasted” cubic feet need-amount of heat (KW) required will be less with infrared than with the ed to be heated with forced air also increases. The poorer the insu-forced air system. To detennine how much less KW is required we lation the more difficult it is to retain hot air heat. As these conditionsmust evaluate those conditions that affect the efficiency of infrared worsen, the efficiency of infrared over forced air increases.

To use the following table:Pick the corresponding values for(A),(B) and (C) conditions and add them together.Example: A25’ ceiling height with an R factor of R-16 in the ceiling and an R-5 in the side walls wouldresult in values of 20, 28 and 15 respectively, or a total value of 63 for all 3 conditions.

CHOOSING FIXTURE LAYOUT (SAMPLE 1)

1) Select proper “type” healing element for selected mounting height, (i.e., 15’). From infomiation previously given, the “quartz lamp" is bestsuited.

2) Choose “type” of heater for selected mounting height. Cannot use “General Distribution Heater” at this height. “Tnmline” is limited to spotheating only. “Heavy Duty Senes" does not accept the “quartz lamp", which has been detemiined as the ideal heating element. Therefore,select the “Mul-T-Mount", 60° or A600 pattern best. Unit must accept 240V quartz lamp...select 222-60-TH or 222-A60-TH.

3) Coverage —A222-60-TH mounted at 15‘ covers an area of approximately 18' x 18' = 324 sq. ft. (See Table 5, page 30, “Reflector and HeatDistribution Pattems.“)

4) Total sq. ft. in building = 4000 = 12.34 or 12 unitsCoverage per heater = 324

5) 35, 708 = watts necessary = approximately 2976 watts per heater. In this case we are limited to one type of heating element,12 i.e., Quartz Lamp. with 240V 1' 1600W rating, 2 per fixture, or 3200 watts per heater.

6) Select: 12 ea. 222-60-TH - 240V heaters. (2) 1600W I 240V lamps packed wt‘ heater.

The above calculation gives almost total blanket coverage if spaced uniformly. For “total area” heating it is not absolutely necessary to getbtanket coverage nor an overlap of pattems. Uniforrriity of heaters, however, will produce the most comfortable environment.

A widely used approach is to heat a building with a combination of perimeter units and center units. This method places heaters along theperimeter ctoser together (higher density) than those spaced uniformly in the center. Since more heat loss occurs on the outside watts, a high-er wattage density must be located there to offset this higher heat loss. The ideal “controt" for this type layout nomwally would have the perime-ter units on one zone and the center units on another.

SNOW AND ICE CONTROL

Principles:1) ALWAYS use clear quartz lamps as proper element selection. NEVER use any other element.

2) ALWAYS use the Mul-T-Mount series. The Mul-T-Mount units are UL listed for both semi-exposed and completely exposed areas.

3) For BEST results use the 300 symmetric or asymmetric units (30, A30). SATISFACTORY results can be obtained when using60° symmetric or 60° asymmetric pattems in semi-protected or shielded areas. lf 60° heat pattem is required for exposed areas,consult factoiy for watt density. NEVER use 90° patlem for snow and ice control.

4) Table B shows watt densities needed when units are mounted at 8' - 10‘. For best results strive for this 8' - 10' levet.Consult factory for densities required when mounting above 10'. NEVER mount above 14'.

5) Strive for blanket coverage.

Snow Control Factors

To determine the watt density of infrared required for any area, see Table 4 {located at the back of the manual) to obtain outside design tem-perature (Factor I} and annual snowfall (Factor H). From Table A, obtain the value for each factor. and add Factor I and Factor ll together.Refer to Table B to obtain the watt density based on the total value.

POWER CONTACTOR PANELS (FPC SERIES) (CONT'D.)ADDITIONAL CONTROL DEVICES

While FPC's handle the KW load, a “control device” is needed in con-junction with the paneis to activate the contactors. The contactorsopen and close - thereby tuming the equipment ON and OFF -according to the control device signal.

Following is a list of these control devices with a description of whateach is, how it works. and its typical application.

Thermostats:Thennostats (air temperature measuring devices) are the mostcommon control device for maintaining specific comfort rangesindoors, whether for spot heating or total area heat controt.Thermostats should be located in the area to be heated but notdirectly exposed to the beam pattem. Thermostats may be shield-ed by placing a cover over the top. Two stage models are gener-ally considered to give the most economical results.

Coi-nmerciallResidential Thennostats:(1) 1A22-3 Single stage, single pole(2) 1D22-3 Single stage,1C|0Ubl9 pole(3) 1M22-3 Two stage (1 I20 interval between stages).

single pole(4) 1A44-3 Two stage, double pole

All of the above thermostats carry a maximum 22 amp at 120, 250,277V, AC rating; temperature control range is from 50 degrees F to90 degrees F; dial shows a comfort range but has no definitedegree—number setting; bi-metal sensing elements.

Commercialilndustrial Thennostats:(1) CKTD110 Single stage, single pole, 22 amp

maximum rating at 125V-277V;40° - 110° F range

(2) AZSAA Two-stage (a° interval between stages)single pole; 16 amps at 125V: 125V - 277V

(3) CKT121 Single stage, single pole with 6‘ line cord;125V, 13 amp. max. rating.

The above units have a temperature control range from 30 degreesF to 110 degrees F; definite degree number-setting on dial; liquid-filled sensing element with double-throw, snap-acting contacts indust-tight enclosure.

SPECIAL CONTROL DEVICES:FPTC-2 Input Controller".

This unit is designed as a continuing controller that automatically isactivated and deactivated according to a manualiy pre-set timeperiod. Maximum time period is 4 minutes. Dial is set by choos-ing a percentage of ON-time. OFF-time will then be the remainderof time on the 4-minute cycle. EXAMPLE: Setting diat at 80 per-cent will activate heaters for 3 minutes and 12 seconds and deac-tivate heaters for 48 seconds.

USAGE: Spot heating only (especially where no wanri air buildupcan be expected).

FTDC-1 - 1'ime Delay Controller:The FTDC-1 controller energizes a specified load in an area wherespot heating is required for intermittent periods of time. A push-but-ton switch activates the heating load for a preset 30 —minute cycle.The system is de-energized once the timer has cycled; then thetimer is automatically re-set. This is ideal for bus stops, loadingdocks and remote work stations.

FEC-Enclosed Contactors(1) FEC-30-120(2) FEC-30-24040 amp resistance load, 32 amp full load. 120 or2-40 volt coil voltage.

(3) FEC-60-120(4) FEC-60-24062 amp resistance load, 50 amp full load. 120 or 240 volt coil voltage.

The above enclosed contactors are general purpose magnetic con-tactors in a NEMA-1 enclosure. All are rated for loads up through 600volts, at the maximum amperages noted. May be used in conjunc-tion with many Fostoria control devices.

APS-3B Snowflce Detector:The APS-3B is used only in con}unction with electric infrared snowmelting systems. This control automatically activates the electricinfrared equipment instantly after snow or ice stomis begin. Amoisture sensing head and a temperature sensor are wired to acontrol and timing circuit. Jf the moisture sensor detects precipita-tion at a temperature of 38 F or less, the system is activated. Oncemoisture has stopped, the timer will be energized to shut the sys-tem off approximately 15 minutes later. The temperature sensorwill prevent activation of the moisture sensor when the precipitationis above freezing.

The control unit is in operation 24 hours a day, with no manual startor shut-off required.

SCR Controllers:These units are used to control voltage input to infrared heaters.With a 24 volt potentiometer, soft start for high in rush & fuses, theSCR controllers enable customers to "dial uprdown" a level of heatoutput desirable.

The foliowing Table 3 is to be used in conjunction with ‘Totai Area’ Heating Calculations. This table lists the “R” factors for various types andthicknesses of materials. These numbers measure the resistance to heat flow through a specific type of material for a given thickness intem1s of BTUs per hour per square foot with a 1 F temperature difference between the two sides. To convert “R” factors to "U" factorsdivide 1 (one) by the “R” factor. (Example: An “R” factor of .88 is a “U” factor of 1 divided by .88 or 1.136.) "R" factors are additive; so tocalcuiate the overall “R” value of a combination of materials, simply detem"iine the “R” value of each material and add these values together

"U" Factor: The number of British Thermal Units transferred in one hour by one square foot of the roof, ceiling, wall or floor with one degree

’ Heating Degree Days - A unit based upon temperature difference and time, used in estimating fuel consumption and specifying nomi-nal heating load of a building in winter. For any one day, when the mean temperature is less than 65° F, there exist as many degreedays as there are Fahrenheit degrees difference in temperature between the mean temperature for the day and 65° F. These heatingdegree days (as listed in above chart) were compiled during the 1941-1970 period as published by the National Climate Center

** Outside Design Temperature - This figure represents the temperature which will include 99 percent of all the winter-hour fahrenheit temper-atures. A base of 2160 hours (total hours in Dec, .lan., and Feb.) was used. Therefore, using this figure as a design temperature will, on anaverage, cover all but 22 hours of expected winter temperatures. A$E1%dHjBMD HMU1.$

"“* Mean Wind Speed: MPH - This figure was arrived at through existing and comparable exposures. This information was obtained from theASRAE 1998 COOLING AND HEATING-LOAD CALCULATIONS PRINCIPLES. (This figure is tor reference only - not required in computation)

"*** Yearly Snowfall: Mean - This mean value is for the period beginning 1944 through 1977. This information was obtained from theLocal Climatological Data, ‘I977.
