Considering Air-Conditioning Applications

A stream consisting of 35 m³/min of moist air at 14°C, 1 atm, 80% relative humidity mixes adiabatically with a stream consisting of 80 m³/min of moist air at 40°C, 1 atm, 40% relative humidity, giving a single mixed stream at 1 atm. Using the psychrometric chart together with the procedure of Problem 12.93, determine the relative humidity and temperature, in °C, of the exiting stream.

12.93 Using Eqs. 12.56, show that

Employ this relation to demonstrate on a psychrometric chart that state 3 of the mixture lies on a straight line connecting the initial states of the two streams before mixing.
