The formula to calculate the sensible heat ratio is:
\[ SHR = \frac{qs}{qt} \]
Where:
A sensible heat ratio (SHR) measures the ratio of sensible heat to total heat in an evaporator. For example, if the sensible heat ratio were 1, the evaporator would use all of its energy to cool air and none for dehumidification, which is not feasible.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the sensible heat ratio:
\[ SHR = \frac{5}{10} = 0.50 \]
The sensible heat ratio is 0.50.
