Chapter 6, Problem 6.52P

On a summer day the air temperature is 27 ° C and the relative humidity is 30 % . Water evaporates from the surface of a lake at a rate of 0.10 kg/h per square meter of water surface area. The temperature of the water is also 27 ° C . Determine the value of the convection mass transfer coefficient.

In a gas-fired boiler, water is being boiled at 120°C by hot air flowing through a 5-m-long, 5-cm-diameter tube submerged in water. Hot air enters the tube at 1 atm and 300°C at a mean velocity of 7 m/s and leaves at 150°C. If the surface temperature of the tube is 120°C, determine the average convection heat transfer coefficient of the air and the rate of water evaporation, in kg/h.
Air enters a 40-cm-diameter cooling section at 1 atm, 32°C, and 30% relativehumidity at 18 m/s.heat is removed from the air at a rate of1200 kJ/min. Determine:   a) the exit temperature,b) the exit relative humidity of the air, and c) the exit velocity
