Air moisture latent heat
Thread Content
If there is 20,000 cubic meters of gas with a relative humidity of over 70%, the latent heat needs to be taken into account when performing calculations for cooling using a heat exchanger. But if the gas is directly sprayed and washed in a scrubber tower, with a heat exchanger added to the spray pipeline to reduce its temperature, is it still necessary to calculate the latent heat in this case?
It is necessary to calculate the latent heat. Whether cooling is achieved using a heat exchanger or by adding a heat exchanger to the spray line, the water vapor content of the gas will change; therefore, the effect of latent heat still needs to be taken into account. -
I agree with what was said above. Whether to take latent heat into account depends on whether there is a phase change in the gas; we can discuss this in detail. The equipment engineer’s WeChat ID is 18606205032
