1. If air is initially at 40 F and 80% RH, how much heat must be added to bring the temperature to 80 F? What would be the final RH?
2. How much moisture is removed from air which is initially at 90 F, 60% RH and ends up at 90 F, 20% RH?
3. What is the evaporative cooling potential (final dry bulb temperature) for air at 100 F, 20% RH? How much moisture would be added?
4. If a fan is exhausting 1400 cfm of 82 F, 70% RH air, how many pounds is this?
5. If air is brought in at 57 F, 50% RH and exhausted at 90 F, 40% RH, how many pounds must be exhausted to remove 8.0 lb of moisture?
Plan a structure for year-round storage of 500 tons of carrots to be located in Fargo. Assume a bulk density of 48 pcf. Recommended storage temperature for carrots is 0 to 2 C at 95% RH. The estimated heat of respiration is 18.8 W/t. You do not need to consider structural design.
