What is the difference between partial differentials and ordinary differentials?
The difference between partial differentials and ordinary differentials.
Explanation of Solution
In ordinary differentials, the total derivative of the function is depends on a single variable alone.
For example:
Consider the function
The total derivative of function
In partial differentials, the total derivative of the function is depends on two variables.
For example:
Consider the function
The total derivative of function
Here, the function

The outdoor air conditions are (35oC DBT) and (28oC WBT). The sensible and latent heat are (43200 kJ/hr) and (36000 kJ/hr) respectively. The return air from the conference room is mixed with outdoor air before entering the cooling coil as shown in the Figure below. In addition, the return air from the (conference room) is mixed with cooling air (after cooling coil) see Figure below, where cooling coil by bass factor (BPF = 0.1) and (ADP =10oC).
