Dry bulb temperature |
Temperature of the air as measured by an ordinary thermometer. |
|
Wet bulb temperature |
Temperature of the air as measured by an ordinary thermometer who’s glass ball is covered by a wet cloth |
|
Relative humidity |
The actual amount of moisture in the air compared to the total Maxximum moisture that the air could hold |
|
Grains of moisture |
The unit of measurement used to determine the amount of moisture in the air 7000 grains = 1 pound of water |

Standard air definition |
13.33 ft^3/lb spec. Vol. 70F dry bulb 29.99 HG absolute 14.69 psia |
|
How to use the sensible heat factor? |
(1)draw a line extending from your process line through the sensible heat factor
(2)If the factor is 0.72 then 72% sensible 28% latent |
|
Find capacity using standard air? |
Q(total)=4.5 x cfm x delta(h) |
|
Solve for capacity using mass flow rate? |
m (lbs / hr) = CFM x 1/(spec. Vol.) x 60 (min/hr)
Q(total) Btu/hr = m (lbs/hr) x delta h (Btu/lb) |
|
Bypass factor equation? |
(Dry temp Leaving- coil temp) / (Dry temp entering-coil temp) |
|
What is the barometric pressure of the carrier psychrometric chart? |
29.921 in HG (sea level) (Look in the top left corner) |
|
Q(s)=1.08 x CFM x delta (T) Is the same equation as Q= M x C x Delta(T) |
True |
|
What is more dense?
wet air or dry air? |
Dry air.
Clouds float in the sky |
