The following air streams mix in a building’s HVAC system upstream of the HVAC heating unit: 1,600 CFM outdoor air at 35°F and 70% RH mixes with 3,500 CFM of return air at 70°F and 40% RH. Assume the HVAC runs for 1 minute, so CFM is the same as cubic feet. a) What are the temperature and RH of the combined air stream? b) How much energy (units of BTU) does the HVAC heating unit need to add to the combined air stream to condition it to 80°F and 60% RH? c) If the conditioned air stream from the heating unit then mixes with 28,000 CFM of air at 70°F and 40% RH provided to the building from another source, what are the combined temperature and RH of the air in the building?

An air pump is used to fill a rigid gas bottle with air. The pump is connected to the gas bottle via a rigid pipe. The pump consists of a piston of internal diameter d=0.08 m and a cylinder with a stroke L=0.3m. Air enters the pump through an orifice located at the bottom of the cylinder to raise the pressure in the pump to atmospheric pressure. Air, drawn into the pump through the orifice, mixes completely and adiabatically with the cylinder contents. A valve allows the bottle's refill. The valve opens when the pump pressure is equal to the gas bottle. The valve is always closed when the pump pressure is below the gas bottle pressure. Pressure drop across the valve can be neglected. The bottle, the connecting pipe and the pump are thermally insulated. Air in the pump and connecting pipe undergoes isentropic compression and expansion processes. I F-one The working fluid (air) can be considered a perfect gas with R=287 J/KgK, cp=1005 J/KgK and y=1.4. Initially the piston is located at…
