AI Thread Summary
When 90°F air at 80% relative humidity is cooled to 40°F, approximately 0.02192 ounces of condensate water is released per cubic foot. This calculation is based on the difference in water content between the two temperatures, using specific charts for reference. The method involves subtracting the water content of 40°F air at 100% RH from that of 90°F air at 80% RH. The accuracy of this figure is currently being verified. Understanding the principles of humidity and temperature changes is crucial for similar calculations.

Per cubic foot of hot 90F humid 80%RH air, how much water is released when that air temp is dropped to 40F?

Thank you for any comments.

What have you tried so far? What equations apply to this type of problem? Is this for schoolwork?

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
