QUESTION:
Air enters a 30-cm-diameter cooling section at 1 atm, 358C, and 45 percent relative humidity at 18 m/s. Heat is removed from the air at a rate of 750 kJ/min. Determine (a) the exit temperature, (b) the exit relative humidity of the air, and (c) the exit velocity.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 6
Air enters a cooling section at a specified pressure, temperature, velocity, and relative humidity.
The exit temperature, the exit relative humidity of the air, and the exit velocity are to be determined.
Assumptions are
1. This is a steady-flow process and thus the mass flow rate of dry air remains constant during the entire process .
2. Dry air and water vapor are ideal gases. 3 The kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.
