Thermodynamics Fundamentals - Recap
The physical quantities used to describe air are
referred to as variables. The most important of these
variables are
Temperature
Humidity
Pressure

Variables
%100Sx
x
Relative Humidity () : Ratio of water vapour carried at a specified atmospheric
temperature and condition to the water vapour that can be carried by air at the
same temperature when saturated.
Absolute Humidity (x): The amount of water in grams (g) per
kilogram (kg) of air. (g/kg or grains/ lb) [7000 grains make a
pound]
= Relative Humidity
x = Water vapour in g/kg
Xs = Water vapour for saturated air in g/kg
Expressed always in %
Temperature : The perceptible heat state of air - can be
measured using a thermometer Referred to as DRY
BULB TEMPERATURE (°C or °K or °F)

Density (r) : Mass per unit volume, expressed in kg/M3
The density of dry air r 1.293 kg/m3
The density of water vapour r 0.804 kg/m3
Specifc Heat (c):The specific heat “c” of a solid, liquid or gaseous material is the
amount of heat required to heat up a mass of 1 kg of the material by 1 K.
Specific heat increases with increasing temperature of the material and for gases
also with increasing pressure. As a result, for gases, we distinguish between cP, the
specific heat at constant pressure and cV, the specific heat at constant volume.
Tables generally specify the values for cP at 20 °C and 1013 mbar air pressure.
These values are also suitable for calculations in heating, ventilation and air-
conditioning systems and hold for:
Dry air : cP = 1.01 kJ/(kg*K) : Water vapor : cP = 1.86 kJ/(kg*K)

Thermal capacity or enthalpy (h) Kj/kg. Absolutely dry air
having a theoretical water content of 0 g/kg at a temperature of
0°C has an enthalpy defined as h=0kj/kg
Differences in enthalpy h between the beginning and end
state of an air modification, can be depicted graphically on a
psychrometric chart. If we multiply the mass [kg] of the air to
be processed with the graphically-determined enthalpy
difference h, the result is the required quantity of heat for this
state change.

Variables
Pressure: Mass per unit area. The weight of the air on
the surface of the earth is called atmosphere pressure.
At sea level the average value is 1.013 bar or 760 mm
Hg. The pressure unit in the international system of units
(Sl units) is:
1 Newton/m2 = 1 N/m2 = 1 Pa (Pascal)
1 bar = 1000 mbar (millibar) = 105 N/m2 = 105 Pa

Psychrometrics
Dry air exists only in theory. Atmospheric air is always a
mixture of dry air and water vapour.
To keep the air under desired, favourable conditions, air has to
be treated. To what levels this air has to be treated can be
calculated (in order to maintain desired, favourable conditions)
using the PSYCHROMETRIC CHART

Dew point Temperature
That temperature at which further cooling of air causes condensation.
If we have to de-humidify a water - vapour air mixture, we have to cool it
below the dew point temperature. The lower the temperature to which the
mixture is cooled, the greater is the dehumidifying effect.
Wet-bulb Temperature
The temperature measured by a wet wick thermometer while exposed to a
rapid flow of air.
The difference between the Dry bulb temperature and the wet bulb
temperature is known as the wet bulb depression. Drier the air, larger is the
wet bulb depression. When the rh of air approaches saturation values, the wet
bulb temperature approaches Dry bulb temperature.
At saturation, the air cannot hold any more moisture, the Dry bulb, the wet
bulb and the dew point temperature are the same

Psychrometric processes, ie, changes in the condition of the atmosphere,
can be represented by the movement of this status point in the following
ways
Dehumidification by Cooling At some stage, continuous
cooling causes the status
point to meet the saturation
line. The DBT corresponding
to this point is called as the
DEW POINT
TEMPERATURE
From hereon further cooling
causes condensation -
resulting in moisture being
pulled out from air (reduction
in absolute humidity –
dehumidification)

ways Adiabatic Humidification (Evaporative Cooling)
Evaporative Cooling
Moisture vaporises to the surrounding
air without any addition or removal of

Psychrometrics – Sample Project
1 ACPH = 1 Air Change Per Hour
Rate of air circulation = Room Volume per unit time
1 ACPH in LPS = Room Volume in M3 / 3.6
1 ACPH in M3/s = Room Volume in M3 / 3600
= 30.5 x 15.25 x 3.05 / 3.6 = 394 lps
Inside Design Conditions = 23° C, 50 % RH
Room Sensible Heat = 55132 watts
Room Latent Heat = 7704 watts
Room Sensible Heat Factor = Sensible Heat / Total Heat
= 55132 / 62836 = 0.88
Assume Coil Leaving = 13° C, DBT

Psychrometrics – Sample Project – Cooling Process
Room Condition at 23 C / 50%
Reference Circle Sensible Heat = 1.23 x lps x t
55132 Watts = 1.23 x lps x (23-13)
Air flow required L/s = 4482 lps
Room Sensible Heat = 1.23 x lps x t = 55132 w
55132 Watts = 1.23 x 4300 x (t) t = 55132/(1.23*4300) = 10.4°
Room Temperature = 13+10.4 = 23.4°C

Psychrometrics – Important Points
A High Sensible Load application often requires large airflow
quantity to off set the loads
Increasing the number of rows of cooling coil decreases bypass
factor and increases contact over the coil. High latent loads require
more rows of cooling coil.
SHF approaches 1, when the sensible heat gets higher and higher
Greater the Latent Load, larger is the deviation of SHF from Unity.
High Latent Load Application often results in a low ADP. It may not
be possible to achieve such a low ADP with a normal chilled water
application. We have to select an ADP within permissible levels. In
doing so, the equipment must be selected with a re-heat coil as well
as additional air quantity to offset this reheat.
