the following adiabatic saturation process example problem. Please explain the process (like

- Atmospheric air at 25C,1 bar, and relative humidity of 50% is present; calculate: a. Specific humidity b. Dew point temperature c. Amount of water removed per kg of dry air when mixture undergoes a process ending at T=20C and relative humidity of 40% The dry- and the wet-bulb temperatures of atmospheric air at 1atm(101.325 kPa) pressure are measured with a sling psychrometer and determined to be 25 and 15C, respectively. Determine (a) the specific humidity, (b) the relative humidity, and (c) the enthalpy of the air. Solution Dry- and wet-bulb temperatures are given. The specific humidity, relative humidity, and enthalpy are to be determined. Properties The saturation pressure of water is 1.7057kPa at 15C, and 3.1698kPa at 25C (Table A-4). The constant-pressure specific heat of air at room temperature is cp=1.005kJ/kgK (Table A2a). Analysis (a) The specific humidity 1 is determined from Eq. 14-14, 1=hg1hf2cp(T2T1)+2hfg2 where T2 is the wet-bulb temperature and 2 is 2=P2Pg20.622Pg2=(101.3251.7057)kPa(0.622)(1.7057kPa)=0.01065kgH2O/kgdryair Thus, 1=(2546.562.982)kJ/kg(1.005kJ/kgC)[(1525)C]+(0.01065)(2465.4kJ/kg)=0.00653kgH.O/kgdryair (b) The relative humidity 1 is determined from Eq. 14-11a to be
