RH. The outside air conditions at 10 oC db and 90 % RH. The return air is mixed
with the fresh air before entering the primary heater in ratio of 2 to 1 by weight.

latent heat gain is 15 kW. Find the temperature to which the air is pre-cooled,
the temperature to which the sprayed water must be held, the amount of
supplied air, the capacity of the pre-cooler, and the make up water.

3. The following information was obtained in designing the summer air

conditioning plant. The outside design conditions are 38 ºC db, 28 ºC wb and
the inside design conditions are 21 ºC db, 70 % RH. Internal sensible heat gain
is 175 kW and internal latent heat gain is 65 kW. Outside fresh air to total air is
50 % by mass. Temperature difference between supply air and return air is 8 ºC
db. Determine the conditions of the supply air, the quantity of supply air, the
cooling capacity of the plant, the cooling coil efficiency and by pass factor, and
the rate of water removed from the air.
4. A summer air conditioning systems consists of water chiller and by pass. Uses
return air before the water chiller and by pass air after it. The given data are,
inside conditions 26ºC db & 50 % R.H and outside conditions 35ºC db & 26ºC

and internal latent heat gain is 17.5 kW. The relative humidity of air leaving
water chiller is 90 % and the temperature difference between inside and supply

 air is 9 ºC db. Equal masses for return and by pass air. Determine the
refrigerating capacity of the water chiller and the condensate water by lit/min.
5. A winter air conditioning unit, consists of preheating coil, adiabatic air washer
and reheating coil is used to maintain the condition inside a room at 25 oC db
and 50 % RH. The re-circulated air is mixed with fresh air at equal parts by
weight before the preheating coil. An amount of 56.6 m3/min fresh air is
supplied to the unit at 5 oC db and 90 % RH. The air leaves the humidifier at 85
% RH and leaves the reheating coil at 30 oC db and 45 % RH. Draw a sketch
for this unit and its representation on the Psychrometeric chart. Then calculate
the heating capacity of each heating coil, the rate of water to be consumed in
the humidifier, and the humidifying efficiency.
6. A winter air conditioning unit consists of air pre-heater, air washer and air
reheater. The re-circulated air is admitted partially as return air before the air
preheated and the rest is by passed after the air washer. Inside condition is 25
ºC db and 50 % RH. Outside condition is 5 ºC db and 70 % RH. Fresh air
enters the systems at the rate of 28 m3/min. Temperature of air leaving pre-
heater equal 21 ºC db and the relative humidity of air leaving air washer is 95
%. The temperature difference of supply air is high than room air by 7 ºC db.
Equal masses of fresh air, return air and by-pass air are used, draw the system

capacity of both pre-heater and re-heater, internal heating load, and make up
water.
