Reconsider Prob. 14-102. Using EES (or other) software, determine the effect of the mass flow rate of saturated cool air stream on the mixture temperature, specific humidity, and relative humidity. Vary the mass flow rate of saturated cool air from 0 to 16 kg/s while maintaining the mass flow rate of warm air constant at 8 kg/s. Plot the mixture temperature, specific humidity, and relative humidity as functions of the mass flow rate of cool air, and discuss the results.
Prob. 14-102
A stream of warm air with a dry-bulb temperature of 36oC and a wet-bulb temperature of 30oC is mixed adiabatically with a stream of saturated cool air at 12oC. The dry air mass flow rates of the warm and cool airstreams are 8 and 10 kg/s, respectively. Assuming a total
pressure of 1 atm.
