    Heat load calculation



    Hello :):):)

    Any one can help me to calculate the heat load of Compressed Air Dryer.

    Air Flow Rate is 100 CFM,
    Inlet Air Temperature is 45 dig C,
    Ambient Air Temperature is 40 dig C
    Air Pressure is 7 bar,
    Required Dew Point Temperature is 3 dig C.

    If u can pls teach me how to calculate it.
    Awaiting for your replay.

    Talk to an air compressor supplier, they supply driers as well.
    +3.0' C dew point is a big ask, may require several driers, and a pre-dehumidifier.
    Use a psychrometric chart, you will need the ambient wet bulb condition.

    It's impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious...

    Don't ever underestimate the power of stupid people when they are in large groups.

    Please, don't teach me how to be stupid....
    No job is as important as to jeopardize the safety of you or those that you work with.
