Chapter 3, Problem 3.43P

A variable-air-volume VAV cooling system is a type where the quantity of air supplied and the supply air temperature are controlled. The space is to be maintained at 75 F (24 C) db and 63 F (17 C) wb. Under design conditions, the total cooling load is 15.0 tons (53.0 kW) with a sensible heat factor of 0.6, and the supply air temperature is 60 F (16 C) db. At minimum load, about 1.8 tons (6.3 kW) with SHF of 0.8, the air quantity may be reduced no more than 80 percent by volume of the full load design value. Determine the supply air conditions for minimum load. Show all the conditions on a psychrometric chart for (a) English units and (b) SI units. Assume sea-level pressure.

b.) A variable-air-volume cooling system delivers air to a controlled space maintained at 24 C db and 17 C wb. Under design conditions, the total cooling load is 60 kW with a sensible heat factor of 0.60, and the supply air temperature is 16 C db. At minimum load, about 7.5 kW with SHF of 0.80, the air quantity may be reduced no more than 75% by volume of the full load design value. Determine the supply air conditions for minimum load (state dry bulb temperature and wet bulb temperature, both in degree C).

The mass flow rate of the refrigerant in a Single Stage Vapor Compression (SSVC) refrigeration system is 0.015 kg/s and the evaporating and condensing temperatures shall be -20°C and 50°C, respectively. Determine the cooling capacity in tons.

The following data refer to summer air conditioning of a building: Outside design conditions 43 °C DBT, 27 °C WBT Inside design condition 25 °C DBT, 50% RH Room sensible heat gain 84000 kJ/h Room latent heat gain 21000 kJ/h BPF of cooling coil 0.2 The return air from the room is mixed with the outside air before entry to cooling coil in the ratio of 4:1 by mass. Determine: (a) Apparatus dew point of the cooling coil (b) Entry and exit conditions of air for cooling coil (c) Fresh air mass flow rate and (d) Refrigeration load on the cooling coil.
