DALTON’S LAW AND THE GIBBS-DALTON LAW

DALTON’S LAW AND THE GIBBS-DALTON LAW Dalton’s law shows that for a mixture of gases occupying a given volume at a certain temperature, the total pressure of the mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the constituents of the mixture, i.e., The partial pressure exerted by each constituent in the mixture is independent of the existence of other gases in the mixture. Figure 2.1 shows the variation of mass and pressure of dry air and water vapor, at an atmospheric pressure of 14.697 psia (101,325 Pa) and a temperature of 75°F (23.9°C). The principle of conservation of mass for nonnuclea r processes gives the following relationship: Applying Dalton’s law for moist air, we have Dalton’s law is based on experimental results. It is more accurate for gases at low pressures. Dalton’s law can be further extended to state the relationship of the internal energy, enthalpy, and entropy of the gases in a mixture as the Gibbs-Dalton law: ...

AIR TEMPERATURE Temperature and Temperature Scales The temperature of a substance is a measure of how hot or cold it is. Two systems are said to have equal temperatures only if there is no change in any of their observable thermal characteristics when they are brought into contact with each other. Various temperature scales commonly used to measure the temperature of various substances are illustrated in Fig. 2.2. In conventional inch-pound (I-P) units, at a standard atmospheric pressure of 14.697 psia (101,325 Pa), the Fahrenheit scale has a freezing point of 32°F (0°C) at the ice point, and a boiling point of 212°F (100°C). For the triple point with a pressure of 0.08864 psia (611.2 Pa), the magnitude on the Fahrenheit scale is 32.018°F (0.01°C). There are 180 divisions, or degrees, between the boiling and freezing points in the Fahrenheit scale. In the International System of Units (SI units), the Celsius or Centigrade scale has a freezing point of 0°C and a boilin...

PSYCHROMETRICS Psychrometrics is the study of the thermodynamic properties of moist air. It is used extensively to illustrate and analyze the characteristics of various air conditioning processes and cycles. Moist Air The surface of the earth is surrounded by a layer of air called the atmosphere, or atmospheric air. From the point of view of psychrometrics, the lower atmosphere, or homosphere, is a mixture of dry air (including various contaminants) and water vapor, often known as moist air. The composition of dry air is comparatively stable. It varies slightly according to geographic location and from time to time. The approximate composition of dry air by volume percent is the following: The amount of water vapor present in moist air at a temperature range of 0 to 100°F (17.8 to 37.8°C) varies from 0.05 to 3 percent by mass. It has a significant influence on the characteristics of moist air. Water vapor is lighter than air. A cloud in the sky is composed of microscopic ...
