eThe air conditioning composed of components and
equipment arranged in sequence to condition the air to
provide comfort conditions, Most air conditioning
systems perform the following functions :
© Condition the supply air ie, heat or cool, humidity
or dehumidify, clean and purify and reduce any
objectionable noise produced by the equipment,
© Distribute the conditioned air, containing. sufficient
‘outdoor air, to the conditioned space.
© Control and maintain the indoor environmental
parameters such as temperature, humidity,
cleanliness, air movement, sound level and pressure
differential between the conditioned space and
surroundings within predetermined limits
‘Air conditioning systems can be classified according to
‘their applications as follows :
(a) Comfort air conditioning systems and

1) Dry air: It is a mixture of number of gases such as
oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, argon,
helium, etc
2) Moist air :

depends upon the absolute pressure and temperature of
It is a mixture of dry air and water

3) Saturated air : It is @ mixture of dry air and water
vapour, when the air has diffused the maximum
amount of water vapour into it
4) Degree of saturation : It is the ratio of actual mass
fof water vapour in a unit mass of dry air to the mass
‘of water vapour in the same mass of dry air when it
{is saturated at the same temperature
5) Specific Humidity (w) (Moisture content]: It isthe

6) Absolute Humidity (AH) : Absolute Humidity is the
mass of water vapour present in unit volume of moist
2 air at a given temperature and pressure. It is measured
‘pnvad i grams per cubic metre of ai (in?)
7) Relative Humidity (6) :
‘Relative Humidity (RH) is the most commonly used
psychrometric unit. The “relative” in relative humidity
expresses the relation between the amount of water
vapour present and the maximum amount that is
physically possible at that temperature.
In other words, relative humidity (expressed in
percentage) is the partial water vapour pressure in
relation to it's saturation pressure.
8) Dry Bulb Temperature (DBT) : The Dry Bulb
Temperature refers basically to the ambient air
temperature a8 measured by a standard thermometer
with a dry sensing bulb. It is called as Dry Bulb
because the air temperature is indicated by a
‘thermometer not affected by the moisture of the air. It
is denoted by ts or tay

«This law states that, "The total pressure exerted by the
mixture of air and water vapour is equal to the sum of
the pressures, which each constituent would exert, if it is
occupied the same space by itself.”
‘+n simple words, the total pressure exerted by air and
water vapour mixture is equal to the barometric pressure.
