Split system cross plot

Balance a split DX system by crossing the condensing-unit capacity (which rises with suction temperature) against the evaporator/DX capacity (which falls with it). The intersection is the balanced saturated suction temperature. All inputs are per circuit.

Inputs

Unit system
AHU suction temperatures
Condensing unit capacity
Evaporator (DX) capacity
Suction line loss

Saturation-temperature drop from the AHU coil back to the compressor. Refer to a refrigerant piping calculator.
