Calculate Cooling Power

Description

This function calculates the cooling power based on initial and final air conditions and volume flow rate.

Cooling power is the rate of energy transferred during a cooling process.

Usage

calcCoolingPower(Temp1, Temp2, RH1, RH2, volumeFlowRate)

Arguments

Temp1	Initial Temperature (°Celsius)
Temp2	Final Temperature (°Celsius)
RH1	Initial Relative Humidity (0-100%)
RH2	Final Relative Humidity (0-100%)
volumeFlowRate	Volume flow rate of air (m³/s)

Value

Cooling power in kilowatts (kW)
