    A building space is to be maintained at 78F dry-bulb and 65F wet-bulb.

    The total cooling load on the space has been calculated to be 60,000 Btu/hr

    of which 42,000 Btu/hr is sensible heat gain. Supply air is delivered to the

    space at a temperature of 58F. For acceptable air quality, 500 cfm of

    outside air is required. Outdoor conditions are 90F and 50% RH.
