A space is to be maintained at 25C dry bulb and 20C wet bulb temperatures.
The cooling system is a variable-air-volume (VAV) type where the volumetric flow rate of
air supplied, and the supply air temperature, are controlled in response to changing load
conditions. Under design conditions, the total cooling load is 150 tons, with a sensible heat
factor of SHF =0.6, and the supply air temperature is 15C. At the minimum load of 18 tons
with SHF =0.8, the volumetric air flow rate supplied to the space is 20% that of the full-load
design value. Determine the supply air conditions for minimum load, in terms of the dry-bulb
and wet-bulb temperatures
