Dry air at l-atm pressure and a velocity of 15 m/s is to be humidified by passing
Question:
Dry air at l-atm pressure and a velocity of 15 m/s is to be humidified by passing it in cross flow over a porous cylinder of diameter D = 40 mm, which is saturated with water.
(a) Assuming the water and air to be at 300 K, calculate the mass rate of water evaporated under steady-state conditions from the cylindrical medium per unit length. How will the evaporation rate change if the air and water are maintained at a higher temperature? Generate a plot for the temperature range 300 to 350 K to illustrate the effect of temperature on the evaporation rate.

In this video, the concept of pressure has been explained. The bottle is filled up with water, remove the pipe, and now you can see the clear flow of water from the holes due to liquid pressure.You can see that the second layer is holding the weight of the first layer and the third layer holding the weight of both upper layers, that’s why liquid flows out wider from the third as compared to the first two.At the first hole, water doesn’t roll along the walls; it flows out at an angle.At the second hole, you’ll see that the water flows out at a wider angle as compared to the first hole.At the third hole, we can see that the flow of water is much wider/greater than the other holes.This proves that the pressure at the bottom of the bottle is much more than the pressure at the top layers.
