To determine the airflow in cubic feet per minute (CFM) required for the room, we start by calculating the volume of the room and then use the air changes per hour (AC/H) requirement to find the CFM.

First, calculate the volume of the room. The volume is obtained by multiplying the length, width, and height of the room:

[

\text{Volume} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height} = 12' \times 24' \times 8' = 2,304 \text{ cubic feet}

]

Next, to find the CFM, we need to convert the air changes per hour into a CFM value. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we can use the following formula to convert AC/H to CFM:

[

\text{CFM} = \frac{\text{Volume} \times \text{AC/H}}{60}

]

Substituting in the values we have:

[

\text{CFM} = \frac{2,304 \text{ cubic feet} \times 14 \text{ AC/H}}{60} = \frac{32
