An air conditioning system is to take outdoor air at 30 ^oC and 70% relative humidity at a steady rate of 10 m³/s and to condition it to 25 ^oC and 50% relative humidity. The outdoor air is first cooled down to 13.9 ^oC using cooling coil and then heated to the desired condition in the heating section. Assuming the air is at 1 atm pressure,

Draw the air conditioning process on the attached psychometric chart.
Determine the mass flow rate of the dry air.
Determine the amount of the water condensed by the cooling coil.
Determine the amount of heat removed by the cooling coil.
Determine the rates of heat supplied in the heating section.

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.
