Air Handler Rooftop Unit

A Rooftop HVAC Unit, commonly known as a rooftop unit (RTU), is a self-contained heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system designed to be installed on the roof of commercial, industrial, and sometimes residential buildings. These units are widely used to provide efficient climate control for large spaces and are an integral part of modern building HVAC systems.

Overview

 

Rooftop Air Handling Unit (RTU) is a type of air handler specifically engineered for installation on the roof of a building. These self-contained systems are designed to condition and circulate air in commercial or industrial spaces, handling heating, cooling, ventilation, and filtration-just like indoor air handlers-but with one major difference: they operate entirely outdoors.

Rooftop units are commonly used in malls, offices, factories, hospitals, and large open spaces, where saving indoor floor area is essential.

Ps:1.The above correction factors are determined based on the average values of various units. For small units (05~15), multiply by 0.95; for large units (50-200), multiply by 1.08.
2.The above correction factors are approximate values and are for reference only.

 

Correction under different wind speeds, inlet air temperature, and water temperature conditions:

Actual cooling capacity = Cooling capacity from Table 1 × K1 × K3
Actual water flow = Water flow from Table 1 × K1 × K3
Actual water resistance = Water resistance from Table 1 × K2 × K4

 

Example: Selecting YG-20 air conditioner, the cooling coil face wind speed is 2.5 m/s. According to Table 1, the cooling capacity is 150.8 kW, water flow is 26.21 m³/h, and water resistance is 14.07 kPa. Determine the actual cooling capacity, water flow, and water resistance when the inlet air dry-bulb temperature is 27°C, wet-bulb temperature is 21°C, inlet water temperature is 7°C, and outlet water temperature is 12°C.

 

Solution: From Table K1, the correction factor K1 = 1.14. From Table K2, the correction factor K2 = 1.27.
Therefore:

Actual cooling capacity (Q) = Standard condition cooling capacity × K1 = 150.8 × 1.14 = 171.91 kW
Actual water flow (V) = Standard condition water flow × K1 = 26.21 × 1.14 = 29.88 m³/h
Actual water resistance (P) = Standard condition water resistance × K2 = 14.07 × 1.27 = 17.87 kPa
