Air Washer With Heating of Spray Water
This document shows how Thermo Utilities, MS Excel Add-ins can be used
for calculation of air washer with heating of spray water.
In an air conditioning plant, air flow rate of 2 kg/s passes through a spray
water humidifier with a contact factor 0.7. The calorifier provides 40 kW.
Determine the moisture content and temperature of the air leaving the
humidifier and the amout of make-up water needed. The dry and wet-bulb
temperature of the inlet air are 9 C and 3 C respectively.
Inputs Units
Inlet air, DBT 9.00 Err:511
Inlet air, WBT 3.00 Err:511
Inlet air, mass flow rate 2.00 kg/s
Contact factor of the humidifier 0.70
Heat provided by the calorifier 40.00 kW
Atmospheric pressure 1.01 Err:511
The contact factor of a humidifier is defined as the efficiency for humidification. A
100% efficient humidifier will bring the moisture content of the air to the
saturation moisture content at the apparatus dew-point, mcC. The contact factor
of the humidifier can be defined by the moisture content differences:
Output
moisture content of inlet air Err:511
Spec. enthalpy at inlet Err:511 Err:511
Spec. enthalpy at outlet Err:511 Err:511
Spec. enthalpy at ADP Err:511 Err:511
Temperature at ADP 15.3825 Err:511 Assumed
moisture content at ADP Err:511
Estimate spec. enthalpy at ADP Err:511 Err:511
Diff = Estimated(h) - h = 0 Err:511 Goal
Use solver to reach the goal
moisture content of outlet air Err:511
make-up water req. Err:511 kg/s
Dry-bulb temp at outlet Err:511 Err:511
