Air at 20 ° C and 50% RH is channeled into the heating coil so that the temperature of the dry ball is 70 ° C. Then it is used for drying by passing it to a pile of granular pet food. The air exiting the pile has a dry ball temperature of 50 ° C. This air is then reheated to 80 ° C and flown to the other pile of pet food. The air coming out of the second dryer is in a saturated state. Draw the processes that occur from ambient air to saturated air from dryer 2 on a psychrometric diagram. Determine the amount of water removed in the first and second dryers per kg of dry air. a. first dryer (kg water / kg air). b. second dryer = (kg water / kg air)
