Air at 95°F, 1 atm, and 10% relative humidity enters an evaporative cooler operating at steady state. The volumetric flow rate of the incoming air is 1765 ft3/min. Liquid water at 68°F enters the cooler and fully evaporates. Moist air exits the cooler at 70°F, 1 atm. There is no significant heat transfer between the device and its surroundings and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. A. Determine the mass flow rate of the dry air in lbm(dry...
Air at 95°F, 1 atm, and 10% relative humidity enters an evaporative cooler operating at steady state. The volumetric flow rate of the incoming air is 895 ft3/min.

Moist air at 30°C, 1 atm, and 42% relative humidity enters an evaporative cooling unit operating at steady state consisting of a heating section followed by a soaked pad evaporative cooler operating adiabatically. The air passing through the heating section is heated to 45°C. Next, the air passes through a soaked pad exiting with 50% relative humidity. A.

Moist air at 20C and 50% relative humidity enters a duct consisting of a heating section followed by an evaporative cooling process. The air is heated to 35C in the heating section. The air then enters the evaporative cooling section where liquid water is injected into the moist air. The moist air exits the evaporative cooling section at 60% relative humidity. A. Determine the specific humidity at the exit of the heating section. (5 of 45 points. Please input your...
Moist air at 24°C, 1 atm, and 35% relative humidity enters an evaporative cooling unit operating at steady state consisting of a heating section followed by a soaked pad evaporative cooler operating adiabatically. The air passing through the heating section is heated to 45°C. Next, the air passes through a soaked pad exiting with 50% relative humidity. Using data from the psychrometric chart, determine: (a) the humidity ratio of the entering moist air mixture, in kg(vapor) per kg(dry air). (b)...
Moist air at 30C, 1.0325bar and 50% relative humidity enters a heat exchanger operating at steady state at 1000kg/h. It is cooled at constant pressure to 20C. Ignoring kinetic and potential energy changes, determine the following: A. At approximately what temperature will the water in the moist air condense? (8 of 45 points.

Example 5: Ambient air at 38°C db-temperature and 20°C wb- temperature enters an evaporative cooler with a dry air mass flow rate of 0.75 kg/s. The pressure is constant at 95 kPa. The air leaves at a db-temperature of 25°C. Calculate (i) the relative humidity of the air at inlet, (ii) the relative humidity of the air at exit, (iii) the rate of flow of water to the cooler, and (iv) the saturation effectiveness of the cooler.
Air at 104°F with a relative humidity of 30% enters a heater and leaves at 77°F with a relative humidity of 20%. The volumetric flow rate leaving the system is 1,000 in3 per second. Using the psychrometric chart determine the flow rate of dry air (lb/min) through the dryer, whether water is evaporated or condensed, and the rate at which the condensation or evaporation occurs (lb/min)
Moist air at 20° c, 1 atm, and 43% relative humidity and a volumetric flow rate of 900 m/hrs. enters a control volume at steady state and flow along a surface maintained at 65 C, through which heat transfer occurs. Liquid water at 20" C is injected at a rate of 5 kg/hr and evaporates into flowing stream. For the control volume, Wa=0, and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible.

A separate stream of dry air enters at 280°C, 1 atm with a mass flow rate of 0.875 kg/s and exits at 220°C. Neglecting heat transfer between the heat exchanger and its surroundings, pressure drops of ach stream, and kinetic and potential energy effects, determine (a) the temperature of the exiting moist air, in °C
