A solid material with the mass of 20 kg (2.5 kg water) is going to be dried until the humidity of 8% wet humidity as shown in the Figure. Q2. The critical humidity is at the time that mass of water become one third of of its initial amount. If the amount of mass of solid per surface of the dryer is 5 kg/m and rate of drying at the critical humidity is 24 kg/m.ws. 10^3 kg/m2.s 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 0 0.05 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 0.3 0.35 (g water/g solid) Figure Q2: Drying curve of a solid i) Determine the time of constant rate drying time (hours) [20 Ma ii) Calculate the falling rate drying time.
