Q.1:
In a certain area, the dry bulb temperature of the atmospheric air was \(40^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) at a pressure of 1.01325 bar and a percentage saturation of \(70\%\). The air entered a cooler with a volumetric flow rate of \(0.45\mathrm{~m}^{3}/\mathrm{s}\) and left the cooler in a saturation condition. The air was then allowed to flow through a heater after which it entered a room with a temperature and relative humidity of \(27^{\circ}\mathrm{C}\) and \(50\%\), respectively. Calculate:
(a) The specific humidity of the atmospheric air.
(b) The mass flow rate of the dry air.
(c) The specific humidity of the air entering the room.
(d) The temperature of the air at the exit of the cooler.
(e) The quantity of water condensed in the cooler in one hour.
For dry air \(\mathrm{R}=0.287\mathrm{~kJ}/(\mathrm{kg}\mathrm{K})\).
