Chapter 3, Problem 3.58P
A space requires cooling in the amount of 120,000 Btufhr (35.2 kW) with a SHF of 0.5. Room conditions are 75 F (24 C); 50 percent relative humidity (RH). Outdoor air conditions are 90 F db and 75 F wb (32 C db and 24 C wb, respectively). One-third of the supply air is outdoor air. The coil SHF is 0.6 and can cool the air to 90 percent relative humidity (RH). Devise a system of processes to condition the room using Chart 1a, and compute heat transfer and flow rates for all the processes. Assume local elevation of 5000 ft (1500 m).

Atmospheric air with an air flow rate of 200 liter/min and a dry bulb temperature of 35 °C and relative humidity of 40 % is cooled to 10 °C using an air conditioner. Determine: a) How much water per hour is removed from the air during the process; b) The cooling capacity of the air conditioner required to cool the air.
Air conditioning system
The air in a theatre room must be 22 °C and the relative humidity 55%. The outdoor temperature is 30 °C and relative humidity 50%. There are 900 seats in the room and 25 m³/h of fresh air is reserved for each seat. Every attendant releases a heat load (sensible + latent) of 100 W and a moisture load of 80 g/h. The sum of heat loads from other than human sources is 20 kW. What must the supply air state be in order to maintain the indoor conditions mentioned above?
