Given,

In a sling Psychrometer,

Dry bulb temprature = 40°C

Wet-bulb temperature = 28°C

To find,

1) Specific humidity

2) Relative humidity

3) Vapour density

4) Dew point temperature

5) Specific Enthalpy.

Solution,

1) Specific humidity: The mass of water vapour in a unit mass of wet air, commonly expressed in grammes of vapour per kilogramme of air, is known as specific humidity.

W=\frac{0.622p_{v}}{p_{t}-p_{v}  }

=\frac{0.622*0.0252}{1.0312-0.0252}\\= 0.01586 kg/kg of dry air.

2) Relative humidity: The amount of water vapour in the air as a percentage of the amount required for saturation at the same temperature.

Ф = \frac{p_{v} }{p_{vs} } =\frac{0.0252}{0.0563} \\

=0.447 or 44.7%

3) Vapour density: At the same pressure and temperature, the density of a gas or vapour in comparison to hydrogen.

Using the characteristic gas equation, we have

p_{v} =V_{v} =p_{v} R_{v} T_{v} \\p_{v} =\frac{m_{v} }{V_{v}} R_{v} T_{v}=p_{v}  R_{v} T_{v}

where, p_{v}= Vapour density

R_{v}=\frac{Universal gas constant}{Molecular weight of H2O} =\frac{8314.3}{18} \\

0.0252 × 10= p_{v} × =\frac{8314.3}{18} \\ × (273+35)

p_{v} =\frac {0.0252*10^5*18}{8314.3*308}

=0.0177kg/m^3

4) Dew point temperature t_{dp}:  Under constant air pressure and water content, the dew point is the temperature at which air must be chilled to become saturated with water vapour.

Corresponding to 0.0252 bar, from steam tables

t_{dp}=21+(22-21)× \frac{0.0252-0.0249}{0.0264-0.0249}

= 21.2°C

5) Specific Enthalpy, h: The sum of the specific enthalpies of each component and their mass fractions is the specific enthalpy of a mixture of gases.

h= 1.005t_{db} + W (2500+ 1.88 t_{db})\\= 1.005 * 35 +0.01586 [2500+ 1.88 * 35]\\= 35.175 + 40.69

= 75.86kJ/kg of dry air
