In a laboratory test run, the rate of drying was found to be 0.5 x 10-3 kg/m2.s, when the moisture content reduced from 0.4 to 0.1 on dry basis. The critical moisture content of the material is 0.08 on a dry basis. A tray dryer is used to dry 100 kg (dry basis) of the same material under identical conditions. The surface area of the material is 0.04 m2/kg of dry solid. The time required (in seconds) to reduce the moisture content of the solids from 0.3 to 0.2 (dry basis) is A. 2000 B. 4000 C. 5000 D. 6000

Pick out the wrong statement. A. 'Solvates' are chemical compounds formed by solute with their solvents. When water is the solvent, then it is called a 'hydrate'. B. In heat exchanger calculations (Δt)weighted is used in place of Δt, when it involves more than one sequence of heating or cooling i.e., desuperheating & condensation or condensation & sub-cooling. C. Heat transfer co-efficient during nucleate boiling is not influenced by the agitation imparted. D. In case of short tube vertical evaporators, area of central downtake is about 50 to 100% of the total tube cross-sectional area.
