A ventilationsystem is to cool 60,000 m3/h of air. The outside air is 26C at 60% RH, after cooling it is down to 14C. The evaporative temp. is 6C. How do I use the h-x diagram to find the need for cooling, I suppose in kW?

According to the rules you agreed to, you have to show some work. If you post your own attempt at answering this question then I am sure that some of our thermo gurus will be happy to help.
 
To solve this, I first used the units to work out that a= m* a/m, i.e. t=z/λ. This would allow you to determine the time duration within an interval section by section and then add this to the previous ones to obtain the age of the respective layer. However, this would require a constant thickness per year for each interval. However, since this is most likely not the case, my next consideration was that the age must be the integral of a 1/λ(z) function, which I cannot model.
