Two thousand cfm (1.0 m3/s) of air at an initial state of 60 F (16 C) db and relative humidity of 30 percent is to be heated and humidified to a final state of 110 F (43 C) db and 30 percent relative humidity. Assume sea-level pressure throughout. The air will first be heated followed by adiabatic humidification using saturated vapor at 5 psia (34.5 kPa). Using the psychrometric chart, find the heat transfer rate for the heating coil and the mass flow rate of the water vapor and sketch the processes on a skeleton chart showing pertinent data. Use (a) English units and (b) SI units.

- One m3/s of air at 12°C and 50% RH is heated and humidified using saturated steam at 100 °C to a final state of 38°C and 50% relative humidity. Sketch the process on the psychrometric chart and calculate the following: (a) Mass flow rate (b) Steam flow rate needed (c) Heating coil capacityarrow_forwardAir enters a heating section at 95kPa, 10°C and 30% relative humidity. The air flow rate is 6 m¾/min. The air leaves the heating section at 25°C. Since the psychrometric chart is invalid for problems that are not at atmospheric pressure, perform long-hand calculations and determine the following: (i) the heat addition rate, and (i) the relative humidity of the exiting air.arrow_forwardMoist air flowing at 2 kg/s and a dry bulb temperature of 50 C and wet bulb temperature of 30C mixes with another stream of moist air flowing at 3 kg/s at 25C and relative humidity of 65%. Using a psychrometric chart, determine the (a) humidity ratio, (b) enthalpy, and (c) dry bulb temperature of the two streams mixed together.arrow_forward

Air enters the heating section at 15°C and 55 percent relative humidity at a rate of 30 m3 /min, and it leaves the evaporative cooler at 25°C and 45 percent relatively humidity. Determine (a) the temperature and relative humidity of the air when it leaves the heating section, (b) the rate of heat transfer in the heating section, and (c) the rate of water added to air in the evaporative cooler.arrow_forwardAir enters a heating section at 95 kPa, 10°C, and 30 percent relative humidity at a rate of 6.2 m3/min, and it leaves at 25 C Use data from the tables. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heating section The rate of heat transfer is [ kJ/minarrow_forwardMoist air at 35 °C and 70% relative humidity, passing through an evaporator of a refrigeration system and cooling to 20 °C.

- The air in a room (24.0°C and 30% humidity) with a volume of 96.6 m3 must be replaced every 5 minutes. Outside air at 38.0°C and 70% humidity is chilled to remove some of its water content and then dehumidified to the required temperature. What is the volumetric flow rate (in m3/min) of the humid air entering the chiller?arrow_forwardMoist air enters an air conditioning unit at 40°C dry bulb temperature and 45% relative humidity. The air is first passed over cooling coils to remove all of the moisture necessary to achieve the final moisture content and then is passed over heating coils to achieve the final conditions of 20°C dry bulb temperature and 10°C wet bulb temperature. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm throughout the process. (a) Sketch the psychometric diagram for the process. (b) Determine the dew point temperature of the mixture at the inlet of the cooling coils and at the inlet of the heating coils. (c) Calculate the net heat transfer for the entire process, in kJ/kg dry air.arrow_forwardKjlarrow_forward

If the relative humidity is 60%, what is the specific humidity of this air?arrow_forwardAir at 0° C and 95% relative humidity has to be heated and humidified to 25° C and 40% relative humidity by the following three processes: (a) preheating; (b) adiabatic saturation in a recirculated water air-washer; and (c) reheating to final state. Calculate: 1. The heating required in two heaters; 2. The makeup water required in washer and temperature of washer. Assume effectiveness of washer as 80 per centarrow_forwardA winter air-conditioning system adds for humidification 0.0025 kg/s of saturated steam at 100 kPa pressure to an airflow of 0.36 kg/s. The air is initially at a temperature of 15°C with a relative humidity of 20 percent. The barometric pressure is 90 kPaa.
