Develop a table of conversions from moisture content wet basis (MC_wb %) to moisture content dry basis (MC_db %)

between 10% MC_wb to 90% MC_wb in steps of 10 percent (Calculate column B).

And calculate MCdb in terms of weight fraction (Calculate column D).

Start creating column A (see the next worksheet).

Basis: 1 kg of dry solid.

So there moisture content in wet basis from 10% to 90% and we have to convert them to mositure content in dry basis. So to this we have a relation between moisture content in dry basis and wet basis.

Suppose x is the moisture content in wet basis and X is the moisture content in wet basis then:

So if i have a moisture content of 10% in wet basis then in dry basis it will be:

So I have indicated the conversions in the table as follows from 10% to 90%.

Now this moisture content in dry basis is defined as:

And weight fraction is defined as:

Therefore we can say that weight fraction and moisture content on wet basis both are same.

To convert moisture content in dry basis to weight fraction we have the relation:

So if we have 67% of moisture content on dry basis then weight fraction will be:

So weight fraction will be 0.4 and in % it will be 40%.

So I have indicated the conversions of moisture content in dry basis from the above table to weight fractions in the below table:

We can clearly see that the weight fractions and moisture content in wet basis are the same.
