An air conditioner is designed to process 10,000 ft³/min of outside air at 90°F, 29.8 inches Hg, and 88% relative humidity. The air is cooled to 40°F, condensing a portion of the water vapor, and then reheated before being released into a room at 65°F.
Calculate the following:
1. The rate of condensation in gallons of H₂O per minute.
2. The volumetric flow rate of the air delivered to the room.
(Suggestion: On the flowchart, treat the cooling–condensation and the reheating as separate process steps.)
