Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.27P
The design cooling load for a zone in a building is 250,000 Btu/hr (73 kW), of which 200,000 Btu/hr (59 kW is sensible cooling load. The space is to be maintained at 75 F (24 C) dry bulb temperature and 50 percent relative humidity. Locate the space condition line on Charts 1a and 1b and draw the condition line.

Humid air flows in a duct at atmospheric pressure. The dry bulb temperature and humidity ratio are 80℉ and ω=0.011 (lbm water)/(lbm dry air)
Add the point on the attached chart and complete the other properties of this humid air in the table below:
ASHRAE standard 55, Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy, notes
that for thermal comfort purposes, the indoor temperature should range from
approximately 67ºF to 82°F (19.4ºC to 27.8ºC), and systems designed to control humidity
must be able to maintain a dew-point temperature of 16.8°C (62.2°F).
ASHRAE standard 62.1, Ventilation and Acceptable Indoor Air Quality, recommends
that relative humidity in occupied spaces be controlled to less than 65% to reduce the
likelihood of conditions that can lead to microbial growth.
Determine the minimum allowable indoor temperature that will ensure a humidity control
system designed according to ASHRAE standard 55 will also satisfy the humidity
requirements of standard 62.1
Use the concept of evaporative cooling to explain how air’s relative humidity is measured using a sling psychrometer
