An air conditioner, basically made up of a condenser and a heater (see figure), must supply 283 m3/min at a temperature and relative humidity of 21C and 70% respectively. If the air conditioner is running on a summer day, where the air temperature and relative humidity are 30.6C and 80% respectively, calculate:

a) Mass flow rate of condensing water (SOL: 3.8 kg/min).

b) Temperature of air leaving the capacitor (SOL: 15 C).

c) Net energy contributed or eliminated in the conditioner (SOL: -218kW).
