Atmospheric air from the inside of an automobile enters the evaporator section of the air conditioner at 1 atm, 278C and 50 percent relative humidity. The air returns to the automobile at 108C and 90 percent relative humidity. The passenger compartment has a volume of 2 m3 and 5 air changes per minute are required to maintain the inside of the automobile at the desired comfort level. Sketch the psychrometric diagram for the atmospheric air flowing through the air conditioning process. Determine the dew point and wet bulb temperatures at the inlet to the evaporator section, in 8C. Determine the required heat transfer rate from the atmospheric air to the evaporator fluid, in kW. Determine the rate of condensation of water vapor in the evaporator section, in kg/min.
