Humid air at 70.0 °C and 1.00 atm with 2.00 °C of superheat is fed to a condenser. Gas and liquid streams leave the condenser in equilibrium at 15.0 °C and 1.00 atm.

Use material balances to determine the following quantities for a basis of 100.0 mol of warm, humid air fed to the condenser.

Mole fraction of water in the feed:	mol H₂O (v) / mol
Mole fraction of water in the chilled air:	mol H₂O (v) / mol
Moles of dry air in feed:	mol
Moles of water condensed:	mol
Moles of water in feed:	mol
Moles of water in chilled air:	mol

8.56. Humid air at 70°C and 1.0 atm with 6°C of superheat is fed to a condenser. Gas and liquid streams leave the condenser in equilibrium at 25°C and 1 atm. (a) Assume a basis of calculation of 100 mol inlet air, draw and label a flowchart (including Q in the labeling), and carry out a degree-of-freedom analysis to verify that all labeled variables can be determined. (b) Write in order the equations you would solve to calculate the mass...

Humid air is enclosed in a 5.00-liter flask at 40.0°C. The flask is slowly cooled. When the temperature reaches 20.0°C, drops of moisture become visible on the flask wall. Although the pressure in the flask changes when the temperature drops, it remains close enough to 1 atm for the psychrometric chart to provide a close representation of the behavior of the system throughout the process. Use a psychometric chart to determine the relative humidity, absolute humidity, and wet-bulb temperature of...

A thin plate is suspended in air at 1 atm. with T_infinite= 15°C. Air flows on both sides of the plate where the bottom side absorbs a uniform radiative heat flux of 1542 W/m2. The plate is oriented parallel to the flow and the length along the flow direction is 60 cm. Consider the plate is negligibly thin and the width of the plate (perpendicular to the flow) is large, so that the problem can be considered as a 2D...
