Supply Air Temperature Calculator
Required supply temperature (or airflow) to absorb a room's sensible load.
Standard DX coils deliver ~12â14 °C air. If the math demands 8 °C supply, the room needs more CFM, not colder air â that's how coils freeze.

Supply Air Temperature Calculator is a free supply air temperature for HVAC designers, technicians and energy auditors â 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 Supply Air Temperature Calculator
Required supply temperature (or airflow) to absorb a room's sensible load. The calculation implements ÎT = Q/(1.21¡VĖ); T_supply = T_room â ÎT (ASHRAE air-side design practice). Standard DX coils deliver ~12â14 °C air. If the math demands 8 °C supply, the room needs more CFM, not colder air â that's how coils freeze.

Frequently asked questions
What formula does the Supply Air Temperature Calculator use?+
It computes ÎT = Q/(1.21¡VĖ); T_supply = T_room â ÎT, per ASHRAE air-side design practice. The formula is displayed under the result.
What should I keep in mind when using this calculator?+
Standard DX coils deliver ~12â14 °C air. If the math demands 8 °C supply, the room needs more CFM, not colder air â that's how coils freeze.
Is this based on ASHRAE methods?+
The calculations follow the standard ASHRAE/ISHRAE formulations cited under the result, simplified where industry practice does the same. For permit-grade design, confirm with the full code procedure.
Is the Supply Air Temperature Calculator free to use?+
Yes â completely free, no sign-up, no limits. It runs client-side in your browser, so inputs stay private and results are instant even on slow connections.
