A large Factory space has an average occupancy of 45 people (only male workers in this space) they are doing light bench work. The average light level is 1.5W/ft2 of recessed, vented to return air fluorescent fixtures. Other production equipment create a total heat gain of 3 W/ft2. Compute the total sensible and total latent heat gain for the space. The floor area is 7500 ft2. For the sensible heat gain, estimate the radiative and convective portions for each type of heat gain (in the unit of Btu/hr).
