Question:

A \(205 \mathrm{~mm} \times 245 \mathrm{~mm}\) sheet of wetted fabric is hung up to dry on a warm, sunny day. The still air is at a temperature of \(30^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and relative humidity of \(40 \%\). To maximize the drying rate, should the sheet be hung with its long dimension or short dimension in the vertical direction? Determine the maximum drying rate when the sheet temperature is \(26^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\).
