The bypass factor of a cooling coil decreases with

A. Decrease in fin spacing and increase in number of rows

B. Increase in fin spacing and increase in number of rows

C. Increase in fin spacing and decrease in number of rows

D. Decrease in fin spacing and decrease in number of rows

Answer: Option A

Solution (By Examveda Team)

The bypass factor is a function of the airflow, number of rows, surface temperature, number of fins per inch, height of fins and many other construction attributes of coils.
The bypass factor of a cooling coil decreases with decrease in fin spacing and increase in number of rows.
