Reading the Psychrometric Chart: Part One

Dr. John Watt gave the following helpful explanation for reading and understanding the  psychrometric chart. “To simplify calculations, psychometric properties of nondry air are plotted on standard psycrometic charts…Given values for any two psychrometric properties, all others can be found without computation.  The chart is arranged as follows: Lines of constant dry-bulb temperature are vertical. Lines of […]

What is the Difference Between Dry Bulb and Wet Bulb Temperature?

One of the most important factors in determining the effectiveness of evaporative cooling is the delta–the wet bulb depression- between the dry bulb and the wet bulb temperature. The dry bulb temperature is the ambient air temperature that is measured by regular thermometers, while the wet bulb temperature is measured by thermometers that are wrapped in wetted […]
