A drier requires 1.5 m3/s of air at 338 K, 1 atm, and 20% relative humidity. This is to be prepared from air at 300 K dry-bulb, 291 K wet-bulb temperatures by direct injection of steam into the airstream followed by passage of the air over steam-heated finned tubes. The available steam is saturated at 383 K. Calculate the kilograms of steam per second required for (a) direct injection and (b) the heat exchanger. Assume that in the heat exchanger the steam condenses at constant temperature.

- One of the major concern in the cold weather condition is the condensation of the moisture present in the air. Usually the temperature inside a house is not uniform and the condensation frequently takes place at the region of lower air temperature especially on the inner surfaces of the windows. If the house contains air at 15°℃ and relative humidity of 75%, what minimum temperature should be maintained to avoid the condensation?arrow_forwardAn open tank, 6 mm in diameter, contains 1 mm deep layer of benzene (Mol wt = 78) at its bottom. The vapour pressure of benzene in the tank is 13.15 kN/m2 and its diffusion takes place through a stagnant air film 2.5 mm thick, At the operating temperature of 20°C, the diffusivity of benzene in the tank is 8.0 x 10-6 m2/s. If the benzene has a density of 880 kg/m³, calculate the time taken for the entire benzene to evaporate.

This is tobe accomplished by increasing the carbon content within an outer surface layer as a result ofcarbon diffusion into the steel; the carbon is to be supplied from an external carbon-rich gaseousatmosphere at an elevated and constant temperature. The initial carbon content of the steel is0.20 wt%, whereas the surface concentration is to be maintained at 1.00 wt%. For this treatmentto be effective, a carbon content of 0.60 wt% must be established at a position 0.75 mm belowthe surface.Specify an appropriate heat treatment in terms of temperature and time for temperaturesbetween 900 0C and 1050 0C (you may select any 3 temperatures).
