What amount of outdoor air at 68 F (20 C) db and 90 percent relative humidity can be mixed with the return air if the coil SHF is 0.6? (c) What is the apparatus dew point in part (b) above? (d) Compare the coil refrigeration load in part (b) above with the outdoor air to that without outdoor air. Assume sea-level pressure.

An engineer has been given the following data on a conditioned room:
Sensible heat gain 30 kW
Latent heat gain 15 kW
Supply air 18°C
Outdoor air 35°C DB and 24°C WB
Desired room condition 27°C DB and 50% RH
For ventilation, 15% is outdoor air, the balance of air requirement being recirculated from room conditioned with some portion being by-passed around the cooling coil. There is no reheater, the desired room state is attained by the by-passing of air. It is found that the apparatus DP temperature of coil is 10°C. Find the:
a. tons of refrigeration; and
b. mass flow rate of the time by-passed air.
