Question

In an air-conditioning unit 3.5 m3/s of air at 32 C dry-bulb temperature, 50 percent
relative humidity, and standard atmospheric pressure enters the unit. The leaving
condition of the air is 18 C dry-bulb temperature and 90 percent relative humdity.
Using properties from the psychrometric chart, (a) calculate the refrigerating
capacity in kilowatts and (b) determine the rate of water removal from the air
