The condensation of the water vapor in compressedair lines

Chapter 14, Problem 14115

(choose chapter or problem)

The condensation of the water vapor in compressedair lines is a major concern in industrial facilities, and the compressed air is often dehumidified to avoid the problems associated with condensation. Consider a compressor that compresses ambient air from the local atmospheric pressure of 92 kPa to a pressure of 800 kPa (absolute). The compressed air is then cooled to the ambient temperature as it flows through the compressed-air lines. Disregarding any pressure losses, determine if there will be any condensation in the compressed-air lines on a day when the ambient air is at 208C and 50 percent relative humidity.
