Cooling and Deshumidification
Find the cooling load per pound of dry air resulting from infiltration of room air at 80F dry-bulb temperature and 67F wet-bulb temperature into a cooler maintained at 30F dry-bulb and 28F wet-bulb temperature, where moisture freezes on the coil, which is maintained at 20F.
Enthalpy of rejected moisture = -1.26 Btu/lb dry air (from small diagram of Fig. 12-2)
Cooling load qr = 31.52 - 10.16 + 1.26 = 22.62 Btu/lb dry air
Note: that if the enthalpy deviations were ignored, the calculated cooling load would be about 5 percent low.
