Solved: Air at 50C with a dew point of 4C enters a textile

Chapter 8, Problem 8.91

(choose chapter or problem)

Air at 50C with a dew point of 4C enters a textile dryer at a rate of 11.3 m3 /min and leaves saturated. The dryer operates adiabatically. Use the psychrometric chart to determine the absolute humidity and humid volume of the entering air, and then use the results to determine the flow rate of dry air (kg/min) through the dryer, the final temperature of the air, and the rate (kg/min) at which water is evaporated in the dryer. (Hint: Refer to Section 8.4e.) What have you assumed in carrying out this calculation?
