Psychrometry
Unit of ω
Psychrometry
Also;
Td.b ≥ Tw.b
Td.b = Tw.b if ϕ is 100%
Td.b > Tw.b if ϕ is less than100%
Psychrometry
Example 01
Consider a room that contains air at 1 atm, 350C,
and 40 percent relative humidity. Using the
psychrometric chart, determine;
(a) the specific humidity,
(b) the enthalpy,
(c) the wet-bulb temperature,
(d) the dew-point temperature,
(e) the specific volume of the air.
Psychrometry
Example 02
The air in a room has a pressure of 1 atm, a dry-bulb temperature of 24 0C, and a wet-
bulb temperature of 17 0C.Using the psychrometric chart, determine
(a) the specific humidity,
(b) the enthalpy, in kJ/kg dry air,
(c) the relative humidity,
(d) the dew-point temperature, and
(e) the specific volume of the air, in m3/kg dry air.
Psychrometry
Example 03
Atmospheric air at a pressure of 1 atm and dry bulb temperature of 28 0C has a wet-
bulb temperature of 20 0C. Using the psychrometric chart, determine;
(a) the relative humidity,
(b) the humidity ratio,
(c) the enthalpy,
(d) The dew-point temperature,
