In Table 2, listing of brief denitions of various terms encountered in drying and psychrometry is given. It also includes several terms not explicitly discussed in the text. Figure 1 is psychrometric chart for the airwater system. It shows the relation between the temperature (abscissa) and absolute humidity (ordinate; in kilogram water per kilogram dry air) of humid air at 1 atm absolute pressure from 0 to 1C. Lines representing the percentage of humidity and adiabatic saturation are drawn according tothe thermodynamic denitions of these terms. Equations for the adiabatic saturation and wet-bulb temperature lines on the chart are as follows (Geankopolis, : /H1Y as /H1Tas/H1/H1cs as/H1/H1.0/H1.8Y as( 1 Mujumdar and Beke Fig. 1 Psychrometric chart for the airwater system. and /H1Ywb /H1Twb/H1/H1h/ airky wb( The ratio ( / airky), the psychrometric ratio, lies between 0.9 and 1.0 for air water
