i need the specific answer plz
A conditioned space receives warm, humidified air during winter air conditioning in order to maintain 20 °C and 30% relative humidity. The space experiences an infiltration rate of 0.3 kg/s of outdoor air and an additional sensible heat loss of 25 kW. The outdoor air is saturated at a temperature of –20 °C (see the table of properties of saturated air at atmospheric pressure of 101.325 kPa). If conditioned air is supplied at 40 °C dry-bulb temperature, what must the wetbulb temperature of supply air be in o

- Air at 30 ºC with a dew point of 14ºC enters a textile dryer at a rate of 15.3 m3/min and leaves saturated. The dryer operates adiabatically. Use the psychrometric chart to determine the absolute humidity and humid volume of the entering air, and then use the results to determine the flow rate of dry air (kg/min) through the dryer, thefinal temperature of the air, and the rate (kg/min) at which water is evaporated in the dryer.arrow_forwardThermodynamicsarrow_forwardProper indoor ventilation is important to lower the risk of infection from the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The air in a room (28.0°C and 30% humidity) with a volume of 96.6 m3 must be replaced every 5 minutes.

- Thermodynamicsarrow_forwardFresh atmospheric air mixed with recycled air is heated to 349K and admitted to a drier at 101.3 KPa at a rate of 100 m3/min. The relative humidity of the air entering the drier is 7.5%. Atmospheric air is at 302K and has a relative humidity of 30%. The air leaves the drier at 306K and 90% relative humidity, a portion of which is recycled and the other portion discarded. The vapour pressures of water are 4KPa at 302K, 5KPa at 306K and 40KPa at 349K. Calculate the following:a) The ratio of wet recycle stream to wet fresh stream.b) The mass of dry air to be fed to the drier to remove one kilogram of water in the drier.c) The rate at which water is removed in kg/min.arrow_forwardA sample of outdoor air (Point 1) has a dry- bulb and dewpoint temperature of 32°C and 24°C, respectively. It is mixed with another air (Point 2) with 50% relative humidity and a specific humidity of 0.0078 kgy/kga. If the mass of outdoor air (m1) amounts to 40% of the mixed air ( m3 ), determine: 1.
