For Down-and-Dirty Calculations

For back-of-the-napkin calculations and for casual conversation, we often equate the heat generated by a person to be the equivalent of a 100-watt light bulb.

Thanks

Dr. Silberstein. I am actually looking for an accurate number. I need to do a heat load calculation for a house of worship and need to be precise.
Thanks agian, Michael.
