PLEASE DO NOT USE PSYCHROMETRIC CHART. THANK YOU
In the diagram below inlet air is drawn over a pool of liquid water in a steady-state, steady-flow isobaric process. Evaporation on the pool resultsin saturated air at the exit. The pool of liquid water is assumed to be at the same temperature as the exitair. Discharge fans at the exit provide a volumetric flow rate of 800,000 ft3/min.
Problem #2: Assume that the R134a chiller is turned off such that Qout = 0, but the evaporative coolersystem continues to operate. Determine:a) The exit temperature, T2 (°F)b) The mass flow rate dry air through the system (lbm/sec).c) The rate of liquid water resupply required for continuous operation (lbm/hour).
Define absolute humidity and relative humidity. When an air conditioner is operated insummer, lots of water needs to be drained out from it. Briefly explain this situation inrelation to psychrometry.
What would operating an engine with 100%
water in the cooling system cause?
Select one:
a. Corrosion of the metal parts in the
cooling system
b. Premature hose deterioration
c. Engine overheating
d. Loss of heat in the passenger
compartment

An irreversible adiabatic process is a constant entropy process. D. The vaporization process of steam is isobaric in nature. E. The general energy equations for ideal gas are analogous to the equations for the processes of vapors.arrow_forwardWhat is "isothermal compression" and its definition in practise ? Please choose correct option. a. It is a compression during which temparature of the air is kept constant. Compression process should be done very slowly to allow any heat to transfer to the surrounding medium. b. It is the expansion of air in a motor, during which it is heated and given extra energy. c. It is the periodic compression and expansion of a gas in a compressor as to load and unload energy to it. d. It is the compression of air in a compressor, which is neither running too fast or too slow, suitable for practical purposes. e. It is the compression of air in a heat-insulated cylinder, but compression should be very slow.arrow_forwardRecirculated air from the indoor space is 7,500 cfm (75 degrees F dry bulb, 50% RH).
