Calculate the EER rating of a 20 ton (240000 Btu) air conditioning unit with an
average electrical load of 30 kW.
An air conditioning plant supplies air to a room at a rate of 2.5 kg/s, the supply
air being made up of equal parts by weight of outdoor and recirculated air. The
mixed air passes through a cooler coil fitted with a by-pass duct, face and by pass
dampers being used for humidity control. The air then passes through an after
heater and supply fan. In a test on the plant, the following conditions (Table Qu
