After pressure spraying, there is a thin layer of water (at 70°F) left inside of a 24 inch diameter retort that is 20 ft. long. A jet heater is place in front of the entrance to the tube. The jet heater is turned on and produces 2000 ft³/minute of 120°F air. What is the mass transfer convection coefficient of the water into the air?

**Problem Statement:** After pressure spraying, there is a thin layer of water (at 70°F) left inside a retort with a diameter of 24 inches and a length of 20 feet. A jet heater is placed in front of the entrance to the tube. The jet heater is turned on and produces 2000 cubic feet per minute of air at 120°F. What is the mass transfer convection coefficient of the water into the air? **Explanation:** - **Retort Dimensions:** - Diameter: 24 inches - Length: 20 feet - **Jet Heater Specifications:** - Air Flow: 2000 cubic feet per minute - Air Temperature: 120°F - **Water Conditions:** - Initial Temperature: 70°F The mass transfer convection coefficient is a key parameter in determining the rate at which water evaporates from the surface into the air stream. The problem requires calculating this coefficient based on the given conditions.
