5) Outdoor air enters an air-conditioning system at 10°C and 70% RH at a steady rate of 35 m³/min, and it leaves at 20°C and 60% RH. The outdoor air is first heated to 19.5°C in the heating section and then humidified by the injection of hot steam in the humidifying section. Assuming the entire process takes place at a pressure of 1 atm, determine (a) the rate of heat supply in the heating section and (b) the mass flow rate of steam in the humidifying section.
