Psychrometric sensible heat load calculator

Calculate sensible heat load with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use sensible heat load to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Examples

Examples

Try the starting example

Dry-air mass flow (kg/s)
1
Temperature change (K)
10
Humidity ratio (kg water/kg dry air)
0.01
Sensible heat load (kW)
10.246

Try another scenario

Dry-air mass flow (kg/s)

Symbols and units
a
Dry-air mass flow (kg/s)
b
Temperature change (K)
c
Humidity ratio (kg water/kg dry air)

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Constant humidity ratio and mean specific heats; no latent heat load. Supported limits: All required fields must be finite values of the exact declared type and within displayed bounds. Lists contain1–1000 finite numbers. JSON tables are numeric rectangular rows, at most100 rows and30 columns; individual tools have stricter shape/domain constraints. Constant humidity ratio and mean specific heats; no latent heat load.
Are these inputs private?

These calculations run in your browser. A shared link contains the values you choose to share. Only questions submitted to the separate AI finder are sent to OpenAI.
