How do figure Air conditioning recovery rate

Big Will

I am sure it has a lot to do with thermal mass. I am trying to evaluate a system that is at capacity if it is 90 deg. outside and 75 inside. The question is if it is at capacity at these temps then what is the rate of recovery at 80 inside and 85 outside. lets say I run the numbers at those temps and come up with an extra 5% in capacity how fast will this bring the space temp down to 75 deg.



I still use the manual J work sheets. I like doing them by hand but if there is a software program that would make this info available I would consider buying it.

You need to look to the performance data sheets provided by the manufacturer of the equipment.
