Please solve and arrive the exact answer as it is given in the choices, and include the units in the process.

 
  
The temperature of the air in a dryer is maintained constant by the use of steam coils within
the dryer. The product enters the dryer at the rate of 1 metric ton per hour. The initial moisture
content is 3 kilograms moisture per kilograms dry solid and will be dried to a moisture
content of 0.10 kg moisture per kg solid. Air enters the dryer with a humidity ratio of 0.016
kg moisture per kg dry air and leaves with a relative humidity of 100% while the temperature
remains constant at 60°C. If the total pressure of air is 101.325 Kpa, determine capacity of
orced draft fan to
this air in m3/min.
A. 80
B. 84
C. 82
D. 86
