Question: Air from a workspace enters an air conditioner unit at 30oC dry bulb and 20oC wet bulb. The air leaves the air conditioner and returns

Air from a workspace enters an air conditioner unit at 30oC dry bulb and 20oC wet bulb. The air leaves the air conditioner and returns to the space at 20oC dry-bulb and 6.5oC dew-point temperature. If there is any, the condensate leaves the air conditioner at the temperature of the air leaving the cooling coils. The volume flow rate of the air returned to the workspace is 800m3/min. Atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. Determine the heat transfer rate from the air, in kW, and the mass flow rate of condensate water, if any, in kg/h.
