Wet coal amounting to 1000 ton/day is dried in an air dryer. The wet coal feed enters with 12% by mass of water and exits with 2%. The hot air used to dry the wet coal is fed at 40°C dry-bulb temperature, and 16*C wet-bulb temperature. The moist air exits the dryer with 30% RH at 30*C. Calculate the amount of dry air at m3/h at STP.

Transcribed Image Text:Wet coal amounting to 1000 ton/day is dried in an air dryer. The wet coal feed enters with 12% by mass
of water and exits with 25%. The hot air used to dry the wet coal is fed at 40*C dry-bulb temperature, and
16*C wet-bulb temperature. The moist air exits the dryer with 30% RH at 30*C. Calculate the amount of
dry air at m3/h at STP.
