Result: Table 1: Result That Were Recorded

1. The experiment measured temperature and humidity values at various points in a system that subjected air to sensible heating, steam humidification, and cooling/dehumidification. 2. Calculations were shown for determining psychrometric properties like relative humidity and specific humidity from temperature measurements at each process. Enthalpy values were also calculated. 3. Mass flow rates and energy balances were analyzed to determine the rate of steam injection during humidification and the rate of water vapor removal and cooling load during the final process.
