Q3/Answer by true or false : 1) All water systems using fan coil units are suitable in buildings requiring individual room control and consume less space compared to all air systems. 2) All air conditioning systems make use of an economizer. 3) With 100 % re-circulated air, some time, the room ADP is equal to coil ADP and the load on the coil is equal to the load on the room. 4) The sensible load affects dry bulb temperature, while the latent load affects the moisture content of the conditioned space. 5) A single zone, single duct, constant volume system can be used either for cooling or for heating, but not for both cooling and heating simultaneously.

Methanol (SG=0.792) is contained in a large tank under a pressure of 350000 Pa absolute. When a valve on the bottom of the tank is opened, the methanol drains freely though a 0.02 m ID tube whose outlet is 7.00 m below the surface of the methanol. The pressure at the outlet of the discharge pipe is 101325 Pa. Some useful constants and conversions: g = 9.8 m/s2 , Pref = 1000 kg/m3 . a. Draw the system. Label points I and 2 (where you will define A= 2-1) and label the variables with values b Write the general form of the energy balance. Cancel out negligible terms, and state the keyword/assumption to justify. Simplify to the resultant energy balance. c.) Assume the diameter of the tank is very big compared to the drain tube velocity, which make the velocity of liquid in the tank equal to zero. Estimate the methanol discharge velocity in the drain tube in m/s. *hint: divide your EB by m to eliminate m and V. Recall, n = pV = pvA and = v/m=1/p
