SHow full solution with diagram.
254 kg/h of sliced fresh potato (82.19% moisture, the balance is solids) is fed to a forced convection dryer. The air used for drying enters at 86°C, 1 atm, and 10.4% relative humidity. The potatoes exit at only 2.43% moisture content. If the exiting air leaves at 93.0% humidity at the same inlet temperature and pressure, what is the mass ratio of air fed to potatoes fed? Type your answer in 3 decimal places.
