As SENSIBLE HEAT FACTOR = S.H (SENSIBLE HEAT)/ T.H (TOTAL HEAT).

Where total heat = sensible heat + latent heat.

Putting the given values provide us the answer as 0.6.

We know that the sensible heat factor(SHF),

SHR = qs / qt.

where,
qs = Sensible heat.
qt = Total heat.

SHF= S.H./S.H+L.H.
= 30/30+20,
= 30/50,
= 0.6.

The answer is 0.6.

SHF = SH/[SH + LH],
SFH = 0.3/[0.3 + 0.2],
= 0.6.

Sensible heat factor = Sensible heat/(Sensible heat+Latent heat).

We know that, SHF = SH/SH + L.H.
So,30/30+20 = 0.6.

Shf = latent heat/sensible heat.
= 20/30,
= .6.
