Specific heat capacity of dry air and water vapour are 1.005 and 1.88 kJ kg-1K-1, respectively. In an energy conserving system, 1 kg s-1air at 30 °C with constant absolute humidity of 0.02 kg water (kg dry air)-1 is heated up to 65 °C. Water at the wet bulb temperature of air is then sprayed into the air so that the final temperature of the air-water vapour mixture is 40 °C. Latent heat of vapourization of water at 70 °C and 40 °C are 2334 and 2407 kJ kg-1, respectively.The absolute humidity of the exhaust air from the spray chamber in kg water (kg dry air)-1 is
A
0.027
B
0.029
C
0.031
D
0.033

Correct : c
