The DAE is an absolute unit that defines the performance capacity of any ejector stage. The DAE is the equivalent mass flow of 70F dry air & is the industry
standard for ejector capacity rating. Curves for correction factors for molecular weight & temperature to convert any gas stream to its DAE rating are given in
sheet "Mol_WT_Entrainment_Ratio_Curve" & "Temp_Entrainment_Ratio_curve" respectively. The DAE is typically represented in terms of the flow capacity
on the performance curve for an ejector showing suction pressure versus flow capacity.
Dry Air Equivalent (DAE) for gas mixture containing Air & Water Vapor
Example:
What is the DAE for 300 lb/hr of a mixture containing 100 lb/hr of air & 200 lb/hr of water vapor if it is at 350F?
Air =
100 lb/hr
Water Vapor =
200 lb/hr
Total =
