This is a simplistic idea, what also needs to be looked at is the amount of time the unit will be working at or near full load, i.e, diversity factor 1.0 operates all the time at 100% load, diversity factor 0.25 = 25% of the time at 100% load. When you are wrong in estimating the unit run time you are causing heat to build up in the space. Additionally how many pieces of heat producing equipment will be put in the server rack or in the equipment room that also have to be kept cool. Then you start getting into server fan noise getting out of the server room into surrounding areas and how do you provide varible cooling to a variable heat load.

I have a question
Im trying to calculate the true BTU/Hour output of a geothermal heatpump. Since the compressors energy is being used to move heat and not generate it ( allthough the heat generated by it is added to the net output) how can I calculate BTU output using cfm , and delta T?
