The condition One may be drawn through use of the &h/&.W, pro
tractor. The procedure is as follows: On the protractor establish
the' reference line by connecting ` the ori&n with the'.'value

and.through the
state-point,of-the moist air. This second
line is the condition line. State'2 is established at the intersection
of the condition line with the horizontal line extended from the
saturation curve at 55 F (te *><55 F). Thus, U 72.2 F.

Absorption of Space Heat and Moisture Gains
byMoist'Air
<' i.fwj
The problem'of air ooniditiamiiga space usually reduces to the 'determination of the quantity `of moist air that.must be
supplied and,the necessary condition which it must.have,in order to-remove given amounts of energy, and water from the
space aad'be withdrawn at a specified condition.' ' > * " Fig; 10 schematically shows a space with incident rates of
energy and moisture gains. The quantity q, denotes the net
Bum of all rates of heat gain upon the space, arising from
transfers through*boundaries and from sources within the
space. This heat gain involves addition of, energy alone and
does not include energy' contributions due to-addition of
water (or water'vapor). It is usually called the.sensible heat
gain. The quantity
denotes the net sum ofall rates of
moisture gain upon the space arising from;transfers through
boundaries and from sources .within the space. Each pound
of moisture injectedinto the space adds an amount of energy equal to its specific enthalpy.
Assuming steady-state conditions, the governing equations

transport PROpemES of moist air
For certain scientific and experimental work, particularly
in the field of heat transfer, a number of other properties of
moist air are important. These are generally classified as
Transport Properties and include: Diffusion Coefficient,
Viscosity, Thermal Conductivity and Thermal Diffusion
Factor. A recent paper" derives these properties by calcula
tion. Table 7 and Figs. 12 and 13 summarize the author's
results on the first three properties listed above. It will be
noted from the indicated boundaries of Charts 1, 2 and 3
that the viscosity varies little from that of dry air at normal
atmospheric pressure, and the thermal conductivity is essen
tially identical.
