A Study on Radian Time Series (RTS) Based Method for Calculating Cooling Load in Equatorial Climates

Human being appreciate the relief from discomfort afforded by a modern air conditioning system. In the present day, many houses, offices and commercial buildings or facilities would not be comfortable to stay in without control of the indoor air environment. Air conditioning refers to the control of...
