5. A process needs an air supply which should contain 0.12 mol H2O/mol dry air exactly. 1,500 m³/min of air at 25 °C and 101.3 kPa is to be treated. Part of this air goes to a spray chamber where the air picks up water and goes out with 0.3 mol H20/mol dry air. The other part of the air feed bypasses the water spray and is mixed with the humidified air to produce a mixture containing 0.12 mol H2O/mol dry air. What is the water consumption? What is the ratio of the flowmeter readings of the bypass stream and the stream to the water spray?
