Air at a temperature of 20 0C and 750 mm Hg has a relative humidity of 80%. Calculate,

(i)The molal humidity of the air

(ii)The molal humidity of this air if its temperature is reduced to 10 °C and pressure increased to 2000 mm Hg condensing out some of the water

(iii)Weight of water condensed from 1000 litre of the original wet air

Vapour pressure of water at 20 °C = 17.5 mm Hg

Vapour pressure of water at 10 °C = 9.2 mm Hg

In a low temperature drying system, air at 60°C and 10% Relative humidity passes over a bed of diced carrots at 20 kg-dry air/sec. The rate of water removal from the carrots Is measured by difference in total weight over time and found to be approximately .16 kg-water/sec. In the system described above, calculate the temperature and relative humidity of the air exiting the drying system.

Relative humidity isn't everything. Why is it that outdoor air of 80 Fo at 55% humidity will feel more “muggy” than a 50 Fo cave at 75% humidity? What other parameter is a better measure of the actual amount of moisture in the air, and how do we define it? Then give two examples of when keeping close track of moisture in the air is important.
