Preheating air by steam for use in a dryer. an air stream at 32.2°c is to be used in a dryer and is first preheated in a steam heater, where it is heated to 65.5°c. the air flow is 1000 kg mol/h. the steam enters the heater saturated at 148.9°c, is condensed and cooled, and leaves as a liquid at 137.8°c. calculate the amount of steam used in kg/h.

given data:

determine the horse power (h.p) = ?

force applied to move the box(f) = 10 pounds,

box lifted from a distance         (d) = 3 feet

time taken to lift                         (t) = 10 sec,

the horse power is defined as amount of work required to move a load. the horse power is equal to 550 foot-pound per second

                  1 h.p   = 550 foot-pound/second

it can also be defined as the the load that need to be move a body for certain distance in a certain amount of time.

mathematically,

                      h.p = (force × distance)/ time

                            = (10 × 3)/ 10

                            = 30/10

                            = 3 foot -pound/sec

hence, the horse power is needed to move the box is 3 foot-pound/second

important note: 1 h.p = 550 foot-pound/second = 746 watts
