A 5 x 10 meters kitchen area (average ceiling height is 2.8 meters) is to design for general ventilation. There are 6 personnel working in the kitchen and the heat generated in this area is estimated at 90,000 Btu/hr. The design indoor temperature is 26°C and outdoor air temperature is 35°C. Calculate the ventilation rate (in cfm) using: (1.) Area Method, (2.) Air Change Method, (3.) Occupancy Method, and (4.) Heat Removal Method.
