Understanding the Air to Cloth Ratio

The air to cloth ratio is a crucial parameter in HVAC system design. It helps in determining the appropriate amount of airflow required for a given space. A well-balanced air to cloth ratio ensures efficient ventilation, energy savings, and improved indoor air quality.

Interpreting the Results

The resulting air to cloth ratio indicates the efficiency of the HVAC system in circulating air within the space. A higher ratio may indicate excessive airflow, leading to unnecessary energy consumption, while a lower ratio may result in inadequate ventilation. The optimal air to cloth ratio varies based on the specific requirements of the building and the intended use of the space.
