Abstract

The aim of this paper is to develop simplified worksheet based on effective temperature difference TETD method to estimate the cooling load of a building under Iraq climate conditions. The Heating, ventilation and Air conditioning (HVAC) system was applied on scientific laboratories at the college of Engineering, University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa, Karbala, Iraq. The study estimates the cooling load of the building that consists of 10 zones. Cooling load elements such as ventilation, lighting, walls, floor, roof, windows, infiltration and human factor were considered. The worksheet provides an appropriate alternative for easy and fast prediction within Iraq climate conditions.
