of protected volume needed to
produce the indicated concentration at the temperature specified.
c
t [temperature (
o
F)] = the design temperature in the hazard area.
d
s [specific volume (ft

/lb)] = specific volume of superheated HFC-227ea vapor can be approximated by
the formula: s = 1.8850 + 0.0046(t)
e
C [concentration (%)] = volumetric concentration of HFC-227ea in air at the temperature indicated.
