What the Mixed Air is for

Mix two air streams algebraically on a dry-air mass basis using entered temperatures, humidity ratios and flow shares.

Air state is more than temperature. Dry-bulb temperature, moisture, pressure, enthalpy, and airflow work together when air is mixed, cooled, heated, humidified, or dehumidified.

The relationship

The formula used here

Tm=(m1T1+m2T2)/(m1+m2); wm=(m1w1+m2w2)/(m1+m2).

This calculator applies that relationship to your entries. Use the formula to check that the units, reference condition, and measurement location make sense together.

Field reading

Use the result as a next check

1. Describe one real condition

Enter values from the same system state, period, unit basis, and measurement location.

2. Read the relationship

Use measured or documented state points, keep the pressure basis explicit, and read sensible and moisture-related outputs separately before combining them.

3. Keep the boundary clear

It does not establish comfort, mould, condensation, indoor-air-quality, coil selection, or humidity-control requirements.

Quick guide

How to use this calculator

  1. Choose the calculation mode or measurement system that matches the values you actually have.
  2. Enter measured project dimensions and use product-specific coverage, density, yield, resistance, or waste data where requested.
  3. Review the intermediate results before ordering material or applying the result on site.

Calculation method

Calculation method

Tm=(m1T1+m2T2)/(m1+m2); wm=(m1w1+m2w2)/(m1+m2).

The calculator preserves full internal precision and rounds only displayed results. Quantity outputs round up when whole purchasable pieces are required.

Worked example

Worked example

Equal streams at 10°C and 30°C mix to 20°C before fan/coil heat.

Tm=(m1T1+m2T2)/(m1+m2); wm=(m1w1+m2w2)/(m1+m2).

Supported inputs

Precision and limits

HVAC design and service boundary

HVAC results use the measured, design, manufacturer, psychrometric, fluid-property, pressure-temperature, efficiency, and test values you enter. They do not perform or certify Manual J, D, or S procedures; supply ventilation or code defaults; select equipment; identify refrigerant; determine a safe charge; authorize combustion, pressure, electrical, or refrigerant work; or replace approved manufacturer data and a qualified HVAC professional.

Planning scope

This calculator supports measurement, estimating, and scenario planning. It does not inspect a site, select a product, certify a design, or replace drawings, specifications, manufacturer instructions, local codes, permits, or a qualified trade professional.

Measured and product-specific inputs

Nominal dimensions can differ from actual dimensions. Verify inside pipe diameters, actual lumber sizes, product coverage, bag yield, material density, conductor resistance, waste, and packaging against the materials used on the project.

Safety and regulatory limits

Electrical, HVAC, structural, excavation, roofing, pressure, lifting, and life-safety work may require jurisdiction-specific calculations and professional approval. Do not use a generic planning result as a code-compliance or safety determination.

Precision and privacy

Inputs accept bounded plain decimals. Calculations remain in this browser and raw entered project values are not submitted to 365CALCS.COM.
