PROBLEM 1 100 kg/hr of palay is dried from 70% moisture content to a final product containing 15% moisture. Dry air (with negligible water content) at 70°C and 760 mm Hg is used as a drying medium. This air stream goes out at 35°C with a partial pressure of water equal to 12 mm Hg. The total pressure of the air stream leaving is 755 mm Hg. 1. Determine the kg of water evaporated per minute. What is the rate of the final product in kg/min? What is the volume of the incoming air (m) fed per minute? 2. 3.
