Question:
You are asked to design a heating system for a swimming pool that is 2 m deep, 25 m long, and 25 m wide. Your client desires that the heating system be large enough to raise the water temperature from 20°C to 30°C in 3 h. The heater must also be able to maintain the pool at 30°C at the outdoor design conditions of 15°C, 1 atm, 35 percent relative humidity, 40 mph winds, and effective sky temperature of 10°C. Heat losses to the ground are expected to be small and can be disregarded. The heater considered is a natural gas furnace whose efficiency is 80 percent. What heater size (in Btu/h input) would you recommend that your client buy?
