Processes - Sensible Heating
Identify what are the changes in properties of air
from its initial condition
Sensible Heating
No Moisture Addition (Same Humidity ratio)
Dry bulb Temperature Increases
Wet Bulb Increases
RH Decreases
Enthalpy Increases
No change in Dew Point temperature

Processes Sensible Cooling
(Cooling above dew-point)
When air undergoes SENSIBLE COOLING (no
change in content of moisture), the status point
shifts to the LEFT of its initial condition AND DOES
NOT CROSS SATURATION (HORIZONTAL LINE
TO THE LEFT)
For a given volumetric flowrate of air, the
final point depends on the amount of heat
removed
The line connecting the initial status INITIAL STATUS POINT
25 OC, DBT, 50% RH
point and the final status point is called
“PROCESS”.
In this example this is
SENSIBLE COOLING

Rapidly flowing air is exposed to either a water
spray or a wet pad allowing direct heat transfer
between air and water
Moisture evaporates. For evaporation to take
place, latent heat is required
This latent heat is taken from the FINAL STATUS POINT
surrounding air thereby cooling the air ~~21.5 OC, WBT, 90% RH

Adiabatic De-Humidification / Chemical Dehumidification
Air passes through a chemical chamber that
has high affinity for moisture
Moisture in the air is removed by chemicals.
The final status point is the process

are added appropriately
INITIAL STATUS POINT

Enthalpy of air remains constant as it travels
along the constant enthalpy / constant WBT
