ln - The natural logarithm, also known as the logarithm to the base e, is the inverse function of the natural exponential function., ln(Number)

Variables Used

Surface Area of Coil - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Surface Area of Coil is the total area of the coil through which any fluid passes.
By Pass Factor - By Pass Factor is the inability of a coil to cool or heat the air to its temperature.
Mass of Air - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Air is both a property of air and a measure of its resistance to acceleration when a net force is applied.
Specific Heat Capacity - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram per K) - Specific Heat Capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount.
Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter per Kelvin) - Overall heat transfer coefficient is the overall convective heat transfer between a fluid medium (a fluid) and the surface (wall) flowed over by the fluid.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

By Pass Factor: 0.85 --> No Conversion Required
Mass of Air: 6 Kilogram --> 6 Kilogram No Conversion Required

What is By-pass factor?

The inability of a coil to cool or heat the air to its temperature is indicated by a factor called the by-pass factor (BPF) or Coil Bypass Factor. This inability is due to the coil inefficiency and some amount of air just bypassing the coil without getting affected by it. A coil with low BPF has better performance. BPF can also be defined as the ratio of air that is unaffected by the coil to the total quantity of air passing over the coil.
