Moist air enters an air conditioning unit at 40°C dry bulb temperature and 45% relative humidity. The air is first passed over cooling coils to remove all of the moisture necessary to achieve the final moisture content and then is passed over heating coils to achieve the final conditions of 20°C dry bulb temperature and 10°C wet bulb temperature. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm throughout the process. (a) Sketch the psychometric diagram for the process. (b) Determine the dew point temperature of the mixture at the inlet of the cooling coils and at the inlet of the heating coils. (c) Calculate the net heat transfer for the entire process, in kJ/kg dry air.

Properties of Pure Substances

A substance with fixed chemical composition throughout is called a pure substance like water, air, and nitrogen. A pure substance does not have to be a single element or compound. A mixture of two or more phases of a pure substance is also a pure substance as long as the chemical composition is the same for all phases. These substances mainly have a constant/ uniform composition. The substances also have fixed boiling and melting points. A pure substance takes part in a chemical reaction to form predictable products.

Question

Moist air enters an air conditioning unit at 40°C dry bulb temperature and 45% relative
humidity. The air is first passed over cooling coils to remove all of the moisture necessary
to achieve the final moisture content and then is passed over heating coils to achieve the
final conditions of 20°C dry bulb temperature and 10°C wet bulb temperature. The pressure
remains constant at 1 atm throughout the process. (a) Sketch the psychometric diagram for
the process. (b) Determine the dew point temperature of the mixture at the inlet of the
cooling coils and at the inlet of the heating coils. (c) Calculate the net heat transfer for the
entire process, in kJ/kg dry air.
