Refrigeration and Air-conditioning

  1. A sample of moist air at a total pressure of 85 kPa has a dry bulb temperature of 30°C (saturation vapour pressure of water = 4.24 kPa). If the air sample has a relative humidity of 65%, the absolute humidity (in gram) to water vapour per kg of dry air is _____.
    1. 7.17 gm
    2. 18.25 gm
    3. 20.17 gm
    4. 21.20 gm
Correct Option: C

PT = 85 KPa, DBT = 30ºC
Pw.s = 4.24 KPa, RH = 65%
∴ Pw = Pw.s × RH /100 = 4.24 × 0.65 = 2.756 kPa

now ω = 622
Pw
gm (or water)/ mg.d.a
PT

∴ ω =
622 × 2.756
= 20.17 gm (or water)/ mg.d.a
85
