Question: Problem 3 - 3 2 An air - conditioned space has a sensible heat load of 2 0 0 , 0 0 0 Btu /

Problem 3-32 An air-conditioned space has a sensible heat load of 200,000 Btu/h, a latent
load of 50,000Btuh, and is maintained at 78FDB and 60%rh. On a mass basis, 25% outdoor
air is mixed with return air. Outdoor air is at 95FDB and 76FWB. Conditioned air leaves
the apparatus and enters the room at 60FDB. The fan must produce a pressure increase of
3.5 in . water to overcome the system pressure loss. Fan efficiency is estimated as 55%.
Draw and label the schematic flow diagram for the complete system. (Hint: See
Figure 3-1.)
Complete the table below.
Plot and draw all processes on a psychrometric chart.
Specify the fan size, scfm, and fan motor rating, hp.
Determine the size refrigeration unit needed, in Btu/h and tons.
What percent of the required refrigeration is for (1) sensible cooling and (2) for dehu-
midification?
What percent of the required refrigeration is due to the outdoor air load?
