    FAHU

    Uploaded by

    Sundar DAAC
    The document describes a forced air handling unit (FAHU) that supplies air at 12°C/10°C and 50,000 cfm. It analyzes two inlet air conditions - 35°C/19°C and 35°C/34°C - to determine the cooling load and condensate flow rate for each. For the first condition, it calculates a cooling load of 649.7 kW (185 TR) and condensate flow of 8 gw/s. For the second higher humidity condition, it calculates a much greater cooling load of 2,392 kW (680 TR) and condensate flow of 700 gw/s.

    A FAHU is designed to supply air at off coil temperature:

    DB/WB= 12°C/10°C and air flow rate of 50,000 cfm

    Air enters the above FAHU at 2 different states as below:

    1) DB/WB=35°C/19°C

    2) DB/WB=35°C/34°C

    What is the cooling load and condensate flow rate in each of the
    two states above?

    Solution:
    We can determine the properties of the air at all sates
    from the below link for psychrometric calculations:

    http://www.sugartech.co.za/psychro/index.php

    Air properties at off coil DB/WB= 12°C/10°C

    h KJ/kg 𝝎 𝑘𝑔𝑤 /𝑘𝑔𝑎 𝜗 𝑚3 /𝑘𝑔


    29.26 0.0068 0.816

    𝒎∗𝒂 = 50,000 cfm = 23.6 𝑚3 /𝑠


    1) When the air at the inlet is DB/WB=35°C/19°C
    h KJ/kg 𝝎 𝑘𝑔𝑤 /𝑘𝑔𝑎 𝜗 𝑚3 /𝑘𝑔
    53.54 0.0071 0.882
    Cooling required for the state 1 is
    ∗
    23.6 𝑚3 /𝑠
    𝒎𝒂 × ∆𝒉 = × (53.54 − 29.26) KJ/kg
    0.882 𝑚3 /𝑘𝑔

    =649.7 kW=185 TR

    Condensate flow rate for the state 1 is


    23.6 𝑚 3/𝑠
    𝒎∗𝒂 × ∆𝝎 = 0.882 𝑚3/𝑘𝑔 × (0.0071 − 0.0068) 𝑘𝑔𝑤 /𝑘𝑔𝑎

    = 0.008 𝑘𝑔𝑤 /𝑠= 8 𝒈𝒘 /𝒔


    2) When the air at the inlet is DB/WB=35°C/34°C
    h KJ/kg 𝝎 𝑘𝑔𝑤 /𝑘𝑔𝑎 𝜗 𝑚3 /𝑘𝑔
    122.5 0.034 0.92

    Cooling required for the state 2 is


    𝟐𝟑. 𝟔 𝒎𝟑 /𝒔
    𝒎∗𝒂 × ∆𝒉 = × (𝟏𝟐𝟐. 𝟓 − 𝟐𝟗. 𝟐𝟔) 𝑲𝑱/𝒌𝒈
    𝟎. 𝟗𝟐 𝒎𝟑 /𝒌𝒈
    =2,392 kW= 680 TR

    Condensate flow rate for the state 2


    23.6 𝑚 3 /𝑠
    𝒎∗𝒂 × ∆𝝎 = 𝟎.𝟗𝟐 𝒎𝟑/𝒌𝒈 × (𝟎. 𝟎𝟑𝟒 − 𝟎. 𝟎𝟎𝟔𝟖) 𝒌𝒈𝒘 /𝒌𝒈𝒂

    = 0.7 𝑘𝑔𝑤 /𝑠=700 𝒈𝒘 /𝒔
