Air enters a heating section at 100 kPa, 9oC, 45% relative humidity at rate of 10m3/min, and it leaves at 22oC. Determine (a) the rate of heat transfer (Q?) in the heating section and (b) the relative humidity (??) at the exit. (c) What-if Scenario: What would the relative humidity at the exit be if the relative humidity of the mixture changed to 75%?
