This document contains a 10 question problem set on HVAC fundamentals. It asks students to identify correct statements about saturated and unsaturated air, properties like wet bulb depression and dew point temperature. Questions also cover concepts like sensible heating and cooling, evaporative cooling processes, and the functions of an air washer. The problem solving section presents two word problems, the first calculating cooling coil capacity and changes to air properties, and the second determining heat required to raise the temperature of a given air flow under different pressure conditions.
