Dehumidifier Calculation

1. The document contains calculations for the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) design for several rooms in a pharmaceutical plant expansion. 2. It calculates the latent and sensible cooling loads for 12 air handling units (AHUs) that serve rooms for various processes like granulation, blending, quarantining and blister packing. 3. For each AHU, it determines the dehumidification capacity required to maintain the desired temperature and relative humidity levels based on factors like room volume, occupancy, fresh air intake and infiltration.
