3987 -- Maintaining Temperature and Humidity in Non-Humidity Generating Spaces

Defines non-humidity generating environments as spaces minimum or no latent load, such as digital switch buildings for telephone companies, office building with a small number of employees, special laboratories and some manufacturing facilities. Outlines a methodology using the bin method to compute cooling and humidification loads at any location using a variety of techniques for space conditioning. Application of the method for a given location will yield a comparative estimate for the amount of energy used for different space- conditioning strategies.
