Abstract

Cooling load is rate at which energy must be removed from a space to maintain the humidity and temperature at the design values.Air conditioning systems are used to bring the thermal conditions back to the comfort conditions when thermal loads push conditions outsider of the comfort range.Air Distribution Laboratory is one of the laboratory that use in lab or tutorial session for FTK students.The student’s activities during lab session and tutorial session totally different and definitely the amount of heat generate in their body is different and can lead uncomfortable condition during learning session. The purpose of this study is to calculate cooling load and identify thermal comfort level at Air Distribution Laboratory in order to achieve thermal comfort by students.Since there have several methods in calculating cooling load,cooling load had been calculate using three methods and the data results were compared to find the suitable method in calculating cooling load.The perception of the students were also been consider from the questionnaire survey and being correlated with the parameter result in order to find its relationship with thermal comfort level.Result from this study identify that manual calculation is the most suitable method in calculating cooling load since it consider all parameters needed in calculating cooling load.This study also had able to identify thermal comfort level at study area which only relative humidity is out of comfort range.
