A dryer is to deliver 200 kg/hr of dry product with 10 % moisture from a 275 kg/hr feed. Moist air at 25C and 18C WB is a mixture of outside air at 21C and recirculated air from the dryer, is then heated to 80C, it passed through an adiabatic dryer and leaves at 55C and 90% RH. Atmospheric air is 101 kPa. Calculate the following: 1. The moisture content of the wet product, % 2. The amount of moisture removed in the product. (kg/hr) 3. The amount of air supplied in the dryer, kg/hr

A dryer is to deliver 200 kg/hr of dry product with 10 % moisture from a 275 kg/hr feed. Moist air at 25C and 18C WB is a mixture of outside air at 21C and recirculated air from the dryer, is then heated to 80C, it passed through an adiabatic dryer and leaves at 55C and 90% RH. Atmospheric air is 101 kPa.

Calculate the following:

1. The moisture content of the wet product, %

2. The amount of moisture removed in the product. (kg/hr)

3. The amount of air supplied in the dryer, kg/hr

A dryer is to deliver 200 kg/hr of dry product with 10 % moisture from a 275 kg/hr feed. Moist air at 25 C and
18 C WB is a mixture of outside air at 21 C and recirculated air from the dryer, is then heated to 80 C, it
passed through an adiabatic dryer and leaves at 55 C and 90% RH. Atmospheric air is 101 kPa. Calculate the
following:
1. The moisture content of the wet product, %
2. The amount of moisture removed in the product. (kg/hr)
3. The amount of air supplied in the dryer, kg/hr
4. The capacity of the fan to supply the air in the dryer. m³/hr
5. The amount of steam required to reheat the air if the pressure in the reheater is 300 kPa, kg/hr.
6. The amount of heat supplied in the reheater, kW
7. The amount of fresh air supplied, kg/hr
