Using “Equivalent piping length = 200 ft” and “Heat loss factor per feet = 0.0922”,
(K2)=1+(0.0922×(200–25))/100=1.161

-Calculate the corrected capacity of RELQ192TAYCA (C) by using (K1) and (K2).
Corrected capacity of RELQ192TAYCA (C) = (B) × (K1) / (K2) (add defrost correction factor for heating capacity)
Therefore (C) = 201.8 × 0.924 / 1.161 = 160.6 MBH
If the corrected capacity (C) is the same or greater than the required total heat load (A), selection is complete.
If(C)<(A),returntoProcedure[3]–2andprovisionallyselectalargeroutdoorunit.
In this example, 160.6 MBH (C) < 173.0 MBH (A), so need to select a larger outdoor unit.
The capacity of RELQ240TAYCA at the same condition is 186.3 MBH, which is more than the heat load (A): 173.0 MBH.
So the selection is complete.
