Question
19.19 Saturated air at 41°F dry bulb (5°C) enters a
furnace; it leaves the furnace at 110°F dry bulb (43.3°C)
and 0.00543 lb,/lbą (0.00543 kg/kg) and circulates
through a factory. Air leaves the factory at 65°F dry bulb
(18.3°C) and 63°F wet bulb (17.2°C).
a. What is the sensible and latent heat change for the air
passing through the factory?
b. State whether the air gains or loses sensible and
latent heat during each process. [Ans: q, = +6 Btu/lb
(14.0 kJ/kg), q1 = +7 Btu/lb (16.3 kJ/kg)]
