A (5 x 5 x 3) m room contains air at 25°C and 100 kPa at a relative humidity of 75 percent.
Determine without using chart (a) the partial pressure of dry air, (b) the specific humidity,
(c) the enthalpy per unit mass of the dry air, and (d) the masses of the dry air and water
vapor in the room.
An air-conditioning system is to take in air at 1 atm, 34°C, and 70 percent relative humidity
and deliver it at 22°C and 50 percent relative humidity. The air flows first over the cooling
coils, where it is cooled and dehumidified, and then over the resistance heating wires,
where it is heated to the desired temperature. Assuming that the condensate is removed
from the cooling section at 10°C, determine (a) the temperature of air before it enters the
heating section, (b) the amount of heat removed in the cooling section, and (c) the amount
of heat transferred in the heating section?

The required refrigeration capacity of a vapor compression refrigeration system (with R-
22 as refrigerant) is 100 kW at (–30Co) evaporator temperature. Initially the system was
single stage with a single compressor compressing the refrigerant vapor from evaporator
to a condenser operating at 1500 kPa pressure. Later the system was modified to a two-
stage system. At the intermediate pressure of 600 kPa there is inter-cooling but no
removal of flash gas. Find:
a) Power requirement of the original single-stage system.
b) Total power requirement of the two compressors in the revised two-stage system.
Assume that the state of refrigerant at the exit of evaporator, condenser and intercooler
is saturated, and the compression processes are isentropic.
