A walk-in cooler 8 ft by 16 ft by 9 ft high equipped with six 2 ft by 5 ft triple-glass doors is used for general purpose storage in a drive-in market (heavy usage). The walls are insulated with 3-in. panels of expanded polystyrene (equivalent to 5-in. cork- board), and the cooler is to be maintained at 35°F. Compute the cooling load in Btu per hour based on a 16-hr operating time if the ambient temperature is 75°F.
