Hot humid day 90°F and 90% RH. Condition the air to 70°F at about 50% RH. Chill the air to condense out enough moisture to dehumidify it: goal is air with absolute humidity not exceeding 0.008 lbs of moisture per pound of air. Show processes.
A sling psychrometer gives a dry-bulb temperature of 78°F and a wet-bulb temperature of 65°F. Determine other moist air properties from this information.
The dry bulb reading is 78°F and the wet bulb is 58°F. Using the chart determine the following values: Relative humidity; Dew Point; Absolute humidity; Specific volume; [Specific] enthalpy.
The dry bulb reading is 70°F and the wet bulb is 54°F. Using the chart determine the following values. Using the chart determine the following values: Relative humidity; Dew Point; Absolute humidity; Specific volume; [Specific] enthalpy.
The dry bulb reading is 85°F and the wet bulb is 60F. Using the chart determine the following values. Using the chart determine the following values: Relative humidity; Dew Point; Absolute humidity; Specific volume; [Specific] enthalpy.
Calculate the amount of sensible heat that must be added to 100lb of air at 85°F dry bulb and 75°F wet bulb to raise the temperature of air to 100°F dry bulb.
Determine the cooling required to sensibly cool 20,000 cfm of air from a temperature of 90 F and a relative humidity of 60% to a temperature of 75 F.
Ninety cubic-ft of lumber is dried at 140°F 'tdb' and 125.6°F 'twb'. The drying rate of the lumber is 5.68 lb of water per hour. If outside air is at 80.6°F 'tdb' and 80% relative humidity how much outside air is needed per min to carry away the moisture?
Determine the amount of sensible heat needed to increase the temperature of air from 50°F and 50% RH to 90°F.
