Cooling Load Density Checker (W/m²)
Sanity-check a load calc against benchmark W/m² for the building type.
Every estimator should know their market's bands. India: offices ≈ 80–120 W/m² (90–140 ft²/TR); a result of 300 W/m² for an office means an input typo.
Formula
Cooling Load Density Checker (W/m²) is a free w per m2 cooling for HVAC designers, technicians and energy auditors — instant, accurate and 100% client-side, with the governing formula and reference shown next to the result so the number can be defended, not just quoted.
About Cooling Load Density Checker (W/m²)
Sanity-check a load calc against benchmark W/m² for the building type. The calculation implements density = Q/A; offices 60–120 W/m², data rooms 500+, malls 150–250 (ISHRAE/ASHRAE benchmarking data). Every estimator should know their market's bands. India: offices ≈ 80–120 W/m² (90–140 ft²/TR); a result of 300 W/m² for an office means an input typo.
