1. An industrial humidifier unit heats and humidifies air. The unit, modelled as a duct, takes in
6kg/s atmospheric air at (40+0.1*XYZ)°C and (20+0.1*XYZ)% relative humidity and heats it to
90°C at exit of the heater section. 120 gm/s water at the same atmospheric air temperature
as above is then sprayed into the duct before the air exits the duct. Entire water that is
sprayed is assumed to be vapourized before exit. Determine the temperature and RH at exit.
Assume atmospheric pressure equal to 1 bar and that it does not change in the process.

Assume Cp=1005 J/kgK

2. A piston cylinder system operates under constant total pressure of 1 bar. The unit initially
has air at (80+0.1*XYZ) °C and relative humidity (80+0.1*XYZ)% and an initial cylinder
volume equal to 50m3. The system is left to cool and when the temperature inside the
system reaches 40°C, the condensed water is removed. Determine the amount of condensed
water that is removed. (5)
