Which is better, heat pump or air conditioner?
well a heat pump is used to heat or cool water and air conditioning is used to cool a room or home. So it would really depend on what you are trying to heat or cool
How do you convert total heat load into tonnage required for a room?
There are 12000 btu`s in a ton, so divide your total heat gain by 12000 for tonnage.
What size room will a 9000 btu heat pump heat and cool?
Rule of thumb, around 300 sq ft give or take.
Will 12000 BTU window unit cool 650 ft?
your question is 650 ft3 normal room (fan + lights+ computer) then it will be sufficient. subjected to there should not be major heat loss device.
How many square feet 12000 btu cool?
It will cool approx 550 sq feet, depending on amount of direct sunlight in room and amount of people in room being cooled.
Does refrigerator affect temperature of room?
A refrigerator is a "heat pump." That is, it pumps heat out of a cold area (inside) to a warm area (the room). Thus, when working at its best, a refrigerator is a heater. However, the laws of thermodynamics assures us that it will always use more energy than it puts to work, so that extra energy will also heat the room. That is why your air conditioner (another kind of heat pump) is outdoors: if it were indoors, it would heat the room it was trying to cool!
A refrigerator and air conditioner both remove heat from a cold reservoir and into a hot reservoir Why then does an air conditioner cool a room while a refrigerator warms a room?
Both an A/C unit and a fridge pump heat from one area into another. In the A/C unit the heat is pumped out of the room and into a discharge area, normally the outside atmosphere, thus the room is cooled, wheras for a fridge the heat is pumped from inside the fridge out into the room, thus the inside of the fridge is cooled and the room is warmed. The only difference between the working of the two is that the "room" is a different side of the heat pump.
Is it best to use room heaters or heat pump?
It depends. A heat pump is probably more efficient if you're going to heat the entire house evenly; if you only want it warm in one room, a room heater may be better.
Can a room be cooled by leaving the door of refrigerator open?
No, leaving the door of a refrigerator open will not cool a room, but will actually make the room hotter. A refrigerator cools its own interior by pumping heat to the heat exchange coils in the back (some models do not have exposed heat exchange coils, but the sides or back of the refrigerator have coils just underneath them, and they get hot). Those heat exchange coils pump heat into the room. Since the process is not 100% efficient, the amount of heat produced includes a certain amount of waste heat. As a result, pumping heat from one part of the room to another part of the room results in a net increase in heat.
Why does bread take longer to rise in a cool room then in a warm room?
because the yeast reacts to heat.
Will black blinds keep heat in a room?
Yes, black blinds will keep heat in a room when it's cold outside and keep a room cool when it's hot outside.
Why does a room heat up or cool down?
the heater may be turned on more people more heat if window opened it gets colder and less people in the room less heat
