An air-conditioned zone is at 72°F and 40% relative humidity. The total heating load of the space is 300,000 Btu/hr, out of which 60,000 Btu/hr is latent heating load. To maintain an appropriate indoor air quality 1000 CFM of outdoor air at 30°F and 80% relative humidity is required. Determine:

a) flow rate of supplied air at 25 °F above the zone temperature

b) total heating unit load

c) amount of water required for the humidifier

Please show diagrams in psychometric chart too!! Thank you.

Relative humidity isn't everything. Why is it that outdoor air of 80 Fo at 55% humidity will feel more “muggy” than a 50 Fo cave at 75% humidity? What other parameter is a better measure of the actual amount of moisture in the air, and how do we define it? Then give two examples of when keeping close track of moisture in the air is important.
