PROBLEM 2.(20 POINTS)
An air conditioning system operating on the winter heating cycle, is required to maintain inside
conditions of 68F dry bulb, 48.5F dew point, when the heating load is 250,000Btuhr(all
sensible).
The system airflow is 7250 CFM (ft3min), of which 2400 CFM is brought from outside for
ventilation. Outside conditions are 30F dry bulb, 60% relative humidity. The heating and
humidification system consists of a preheater, a spray cabinet and a main heater. The main
heater is rated at 360,000Btuhr.
a. Make a diagram of the system; identify each characteristic point on the diagram, and
show for each significant point its dry bulb temperature and relative humidity.
b. Draw the operating cycle on the psychrometric chart provided.
c. Calculate the Btu/hr rating of the preheater.
d. Calculate the adiabatic efficiency of the spray cabinet, and the quantity of make-up water
required in the operation of the spray cabinet.
