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.
In order to increase the humidity of an air stream having a temperature of 55°C and humidity
of 0.002 kg/kg, water is sprayed into it in the form of a fine mist; the mist droplets evaporate in
the airstream. The water temperature is 20°C and the flow rate of the airstream is 10 kg/s (dry
air). What flow rate of water would be required to bring the relative humidity to 50% and what
would be the temperature of the resultant stream?
A room is to be maintained at a state of 20 celsius degree dry-bulb and 50 percent saturation by a plant handling 0.5 m^3/s of outside air at a state of 0 celsius degree. the air steam is heated to a temperature warm enough to offset a heat loss of 2.5kw and dry steam is then injected to maintain the humidity required in the room. calculate the supply air tempetaure and the heating and humidification loads ?

What is the mass-transfer coefficient for the humidification of this stream by evaporation from the wet walls? If the air in this situation is 50 % saturated, and the saturation particle pressure of water vapour at 40℃ is 7375 Pa, what is the local evaporation flux in a unit of kg/m²s?arrow_forwardA manufacturing plant produces an efluent as a waste product. As part of a waste heat recovery system, they want to use this for internal heating and cooling. The effluent is flown through a system where its temperature remains at 303.15 K. A 0.06-m diameter pipe carrying hot water and 0.04-m diameter pipe carrying cold air is passed through this effluent chamber. It can be assumed that the surface temperature of these air and water pipes are same as the effluent temperature. Water comes in at 328.15 K and exits at 308.15 K. The air comes in at 268.15 K and exits at 298.15 K. The mass flow rate of water and air is respectively, 1 kg/s and 0.01 kg/s. Determine the length of the water and air pipes in the system.
