This Psychrometric Processes Program follows equations provided in the 2003 ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals,

Chapter 6. The program can replace the Psychrometric chart and users are encouraged to compare values. It permits
the quick calculation of basic HVAC air mixing, cooling, heating and heat recovery processes. Thanks is extended to Dr.
Jim Richardson (CE Department @ UA) for assistance in learning the use of Visual Basic macros in Excel that permit the
calculation of psychrometric values using subroutines.

This Worksheet computes the properties of air leaving Heat Recovery Units (HRU) used to adsorb or remove heat (and in so
moisture) from room air that is being exhausted. The heat and moisture are transfered to or from the fresh outdoor air make-u
capacity of the HRU is also computed. The effects of the HRU supply fan heat are considered.
