Humidification and Water Cooling correction: 1 P.61 line 10, “develped” should be read “developed”. 2 P.62 line 8, “condenser” should be read “condensed”. 3 P.62 line 13, “The” should be read “The”. 4 P.63 line 1 from bottom, “incroporate” should be read “incorporate”. In the processing of materials it is often necessary either to increase the amount of vapour蒸汽, 水蒸气present in a gas stream, an operation known as humidification增湿 or to reduce the vapour present, a process referred to as称为dehumidification除湿. 在材料加工过程中，有时需要增加气流中的水蒸气含量，这样的操作称为增湿，而有时需要减少现有蒸气含量，这类过程称为除湿。 In humidification, the vapour content can be increased by passing the gas over a liquid which then evaporates into the gas stream. 在增湿操作中，可以使气体通过液体，液体蒸发到气流中从而使蒸汽含量增加。 This transfer into main stream takes place by diffusion扩散, and at the interface simultaneous transfer of heat and mass takes place according to the relations developed in previous units. 这种朝气流主体的传质是通过扩散进行的，而在气液界面处，按前面单元中建立的关系，同时进行热量和质量的传递。 In the reverse operation, that is dehumidification, partial condensation冷凝must be effected实现, 达到and the condensed vapour removed. 在与之相反的操作中，即除湿过程中，蒸汽会发生部分冷凝，并且要除去冷凝的蒸汽。 The most widespread application of humidification and dehumidification operations involves the air-water system, and a discussion of this forms形成,构成, 组成the greater part of the present unit. 增湿和除湿最广泛的应用在于空气－水体系，关于这个问题的讨论占了本单元的一大部分。 although the drying of wet solids is an example of a humidification operation, the reduction of the moisture content of the solids is the main aim and the humidification of the air stream is a secondary effect. 尽管潮湿固体的烘干是增湿操作的一个例子，固体湿气含量的减少是主要目的，而气流的增湿是次要作用。 Much of the present unit is, however, of vital significance in any drying operation. Air conditioning and gas drying involve humidification and dehumidification operations. 然而，本单元的大部分问题在干燥操作中也是非常重要的。空调和气体干燥操作中涉及增湿和除湿操作。 For example, moisture湿气, 水分, must be removed from wet chlorine so that the gas can be handled in steel equipment which would otherwise
