Two hundred kg/hr of air at 28°C and 50% relative humidity is then heated to 50°C, passed through an adiabatic dryer, and discharge at 40°C and 85% relative humidity. The pressure in the reheater is saturated at 100kPa. Rair=287.08J/kg-K. Atmospheric condition is 101kPa. Calculate the following: 1.) The amount of steam to reheat the air; kg/hr 2.) The fan capacity, m3/hr 3.) The amount of moisture removed in the feed, kg/hr 4.) The moisture content in the feed if the product is 500kg/hr with 8% moisture content, kg/hr 5.) The amount of feed< kg/hr

Question

Two hundred kg/hr of air at 28°C and 50% relative humidity is then heated to 50°C, passed through an adiabatic dryer, and discharge at 40°C and 85% relative humidity. The pressure in the reheater is saturated at 100kPa. Rair=287.08J/kg-K. Atmospheric condition is 101kPa. Calculate the following:

1.) The amount of steam to reheat the air; kg/hr
2.) The fan capacity, m3/hr
3.) The amount of moisture removed in the feed, kg/hr
4.) The moisture content in the feed if the product is 500kg/hr with 8% moisture content, kg/hr
5.) The amount of feed< kg/hr
