Chapter 1, Problem 1.12P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The feed rate to the dryer is to be calculated along with the amount of water removed.

Concept Introduction:

In a system, a conserved quantity (total mass, the mass of a particular species, energy or momentum) is balanced and can be written as:

  input+generationoutputconsumpumtion=accumulation

Here, ‘input’ is the stream which enters the system. ‘generation’ is the term used for the quantity that is produced within the system. ‘output’ is the stream which leaves the system. ‘consumption’ is the term used for the quantity that is consumed within the system. ‘accumulation’ is used for the quantity which is built up within the system.

All the equations which are formed are then solved simultaneously to calculate the values of the unknown variables.

Chemical Engineering  Use the psychrometric chart. The remaining curves on the psychrometric chart are almost vertical and convex to the left, with labeled values (on Figure 8.4-1) of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and so on. (The units of these numbers arekJ/kg DA). Thesecurves are usedto determine theenthalpyof humid air that is not saturated. The procedure is as follows: (a) locate the point on the chart corresponding to air at its specified condition; (b) interpolate to estimate the enthalpy deviation at this point; (c) follow the constant wet-bulb temperature line to the enthalpy scale above the saturation curve, read the value on that scale, and add the enthalpy deviation to it. Also, you will see the exercise on the piece of paper.
