HW#2 Solutions: DB WB B

This document summarizes the solutions to homework problems involving psychrometric calculations. It calculates psychrometric properties like wet-bulb temperature, vapor pressure, humidity ratio, enthalpy, and relative humidity given dry-bulb temperature, wet-bulb temperature, and barometric pressure. The calculations use common psychrometric equations and steam table data to determine intermediate values needed to calculate the requested psychrometric properties.

HW#2 Solutions 1. Given: tdb = 70 F, twb = 55 F, Pb = 26 in Hg = 26*.491 = 12.75 psia a.

use Carrier equation to determine Pwv Pwv = Pw ((Pb - Pw)(tdb - twb))/(2800-1.3 twb) Pw = Ps @ twb from Steam Table = 0.21 psia = 0.21 ((12.75 - 0.21)(70-55))/(2800-1.3*55) Pwv= 0.141 psia b. use dry air density equation to determine da da = (Pb Pwv)/(.37*(460 +tdb)) da = 0.0642 #da/ft3 c. use water vapor density equation to determine wv = (Pwv)/(.596*(460+tdb) wv = 0.000446 #wv d. use moist air density equation to determine ma ma = da + wv ma = 0.0646 #ma/ft3 e. use humidity ratio equation w = wv / da or w = .621* Pwv/( Pb - Pwv) w = 0.0069 #wv / #da f. use enthalpy equation h = Cp*tdb + w*hg Cp = .24 hg = 1092.1 BTU/#da (from steam tables) h = 24.33 BTU/#da g. use steam tables to determine tdp tdp is where Ps = Pwv tdp = 44 F h. use relative humidity equation RH = (Pwv/Ps)*100% , Ps from steam table (for corresponding tdb) = 0.36292 RH = 38.85% 2. a) False b) False c) True d) False
