I have been asked to arrange a quote to cool only an existing building
(arena with bowl type seating) for summer use as now the conditions are
unbearable during events.

I am thinking that 4 BIG units might be the way to go,one in each corner,
probably splits.

I can't seem to find a design condition chart from ashrae or anyone else on
google. It is a fairly moderate year round climate here, from memory I think
we're talking around 80f summer but it hit the mid 90's two days ago.Just
the people load would be 125 tons and 45,000 cfm o/air required..As this
will be a major financial investment, I need to do it right the first time
and any input on design considerations would be appreciated. Thanks.

Indoor Conditions;24 C/75 F @ 50% RH

Design Conditions; ?

Occupancy load; 3000x500=1,500,000 btu

Square footage;280'x165'= 46,200

Cubic footage; 280'x165'= 46,200x48=2,217,600

guess global warming is a reality !!!!,
bone up on j manual calculations and kinetic heat load

good luck

Do manual J calcs. cover loads of this size?I haven't used them as I haven't
done much design only service, repairs, installs and a bit of manufacture
(shop built special orders)

        The concept of heat load holds, but Man J does not cover
commercial buildings in its design considerations.

        I forget if the commercial book is Manual N or T ????
