Concept:

The sensible heat factor is the ratio of Sensible heat to the Room total heat.

Room total heat = Sensible heat (SH) + Latent heat (LH)

Sensible Heat Factor is given by, 

\(SHF = \frac{{SH}}{{LH + SH}} \)

Calculation:

Given, SH = 3, LH = 1

\(SHF = \frac{{SH}}{{SH + LH}} = \frac{{3}}{{3+1}} = 0.75\)
