Question
Atmospheric air enters an AC unit at 1 atm, 32°C, and 70% relative humidity at a rate of 2
m³/min, and leaves steadily as saturated air ( ϕ = 100%) at 15°C. Additionally, condensate
(liquid water) from the air flow is removed at 15°C. Using the psychrometric chart as an
aid determine;
a) the rate of condensate removed (gal/hr), and
b) the rate of heat removed (kJ/min) from the flow.
