1. (a) What is psychrometry and explain the psychrometric processes in air-conditioning equipment.
   (b) 120m³ of air/min at 35⁰ DBT and 50% R.H is cooled at 20⁰C DBT passing through a cooling coil. Determine the following: (i) R.H and WBT of outgoing air. (ii) Capacity of the cooling coil in TOR. (iii) Amount of water vapour removed from air.
2. The room sensible and latent heat loads for an air conditioned space are 25 KW and 5 KW respectively. The room condition is 25⁰C dry bulb temperature and 50% relative humidity. The outdoor condition is 40⁰C dry bulb temperature and 50% relative humidity. The ventilation requirement is such that on mass flow rate basis 20% of fresh air is introduced and 80% of supply air is re-circulated. The by-pass factor of the cooling coil is 0.15. Determine:
