Dew Point
By definition, the dew point of a gaseous mixture is the temperature at which its water vapour
starts condensing. It is therefore the temperature at which the saturation pressure for water
equals the partial pressure of water vapour in the mixture.
From the wet flue gas analysis, the content of water vapour is 12.02%.
The partial pressure of water vapour (assume gas pressure is 760 mm Hg) = 12.02/100 x 760
= 91.352 mm Hg
