PRESSURE
Using Dalton's law of partial pressure, the pressure of a mixture is
the sum of pressures of each component at the temperature and
volume of the mixture.
VOLUME
Using Amagat’s law of partial volumes, the volume of mixture is the
sum of volume of each component at the temperature and pressure
of the mixture.
TEMPERATURE
At any uniform mixture, the temperature is same for each
component of the mixture

MIXTURE OF REAL GASES
Dalton’s law and Amagat’s law can also be applied to real gases
(non-ideal gases) with a reasonable accuracy. However, the deviation
from the ideal gas law must be taken into account by:
•Using more appropriate (and complex) relations for a real gas.
•Using the compressibility factor (Z)
PV ZNRU T
For a mixture, Zm can be computed as:

Z m yi Z i Where, yi

DRY AIR
It is nothing but the air without moisture or water vapour.
MOIST AIR
it is the mixture of dry air and water vapour. The amount of
water vapour varies with temperature.
SATURATION OF CAPACITY OF AIR
The maximum quantity of water vapour in the air at particular
air temperature is known as saturation capacity of air.
MOISTURE
The water vapour present in the air is known as moisture.
Contd…
DEGREE OF SATURATION
It is the ratio of the actual specific humidity and the saturated
specific humidity at the same temperature of the mixture.
RELATIVE HUMIDITY
It is defined as the ratio of partial pressure of water vapour (p w) in
a mixture to the saturation pressure (ps) of pure water at the same
temperature of mixture.
TOTAL ENTHALPY OF MOIST AIR
it is defined as the sum of the enthalpy of dry air and the enthalpy
of water vapour associated with the dry air.
H = C p td + h g

Adiabatic condition
Well insulated chamber: no heat gain and loss
Air is allowed to contact a large surface area of water
Part of sensible heat of entering air is transformed into
latent heat
Process of evaporation water into the air results
in saturation by converting part of sensible heat
of the entering air into latent heat
