NOTES FOR TABLE 12
Explanation:
Total heat transmission from solar radiation and temperature difference between outside and room air. Btu per (hr) (sq ft) of roof area
Equivalent temperature differential from above table
Heat transmission coefficient for sum mer Btu per (hr) (sq ft) F deg
1. Source. Calculated by Mackey and Wright method (see reference list) and adjusted after studying ASHVE original test data. Estimated for July in 40 deg north latitude. (For sol-air temperatures used in calculations see Table 11.) For typical design day where the maximum outdoor temperature is 95 F and
minimum temperature at night is approximately 75 F (daily range of temperature, 20 F) mean 24 hr tem perature 84 F for a room temperature of 80 F. All roofs have been assumed a dark color which absorbs 90
percent of solar radiation, ana reflects only 10 percent.
2. Application. These values may be used for all normal air conditioning estimates; usually without correction, in latitude 0 deg to 60 deg north or south when the load is calculated for the hottest weather. Note 6 explains how to adjust the temperature differential for other room and outdoor temperatures.
3. Ptaxed Roofs. If the roof is peaked and the heat gain is primarily uue to solar radiation, use for the area of the roof, the area projected on a horizontal plane.
4. Attic*. If the oeiling is insulated and if a fan is used in the attic for positive ventilation, the total tern' perature differential for a roof exposed to the sun may be decreased 85 percent.

T-nkl Colon Credit should not be taken for light colored roofs except where the permanence of the light i t^Litabliahed by experience, as in rural areas or where there is little smoke. When the exterior surface ? Jxmsed to the sun is a light color, such as white or aluminum (which absorb approximately 50 percent
percent of the solar radiation) add to the temperature differential for roof in shade 55 percent f,"j^MHiMbetween the roof in sun and roof in shade. When the roof exposed to the sun is a medium roloTsuih^riSbtPey* blue or green, or bright red, add 80 percent of this difference.

which is a simple form analogous to the steady state equations of .Chapters 5 and 9. The rate of heat flow is obtained by multiplying the overall heat transmission coefficient of the structure by the equivalent temperature differential obtained from the tables.
Tables 12 and 13 were developed by using an outside surface conductance of 4.0 and an inside film conductance of 1.65 Btu (hr) (sq ft) (F deg). A reduction was made in the temperature differentials for roofs amounting to some 20 percent of solar radiation as explained by Stewart.1* This was to compensate for several factors, one of which is the radiant heat lost to the
