What type of hygrometer is a wet- and dry-bulb?
Psychrometer
How does a hygrometer units measure?
A hygrometer measure humidity. One sort of hygrometer is psychrometer, it has two thermometers one kept wet the other dry. The difference between the temperatures is related to the humidity.
Is wet and dry bulb thermometer same as hygrometer?
yes
What instrument do you use to measure dry bulb and wet bulb temperature?
You use a Hygrometer.
What instrument measures relative humidity using wet-bulb and dry-bulb thermometers?
Hygrometer
When was the first hygrometer made?
The hydrometer was invented by Antoine Baume in 1768.
What is a wet and dry bulb hygrometer?
It is a way to measure the humidity level, without using expensive equipment.
What is a hygrometers?
AnswerA hygrometer is an instrument for measuring humidity in the surrounding environment.using to bulb thermometers in it one is dry and the other one is wet.the wet one is used to know the amount of humidity due to evaporation and then it's compared with the reading of the dry one to get the difference.which is the rate of humidity.A hygrometer measures humidity in the surrounding environment.using to bulb thermometers in it one is dry and the other one is wet.the wet one is used to know the amount of humidity due to evaporation and then it's compared with the reading of the dry one to get the difference.which is the rate of humidity.
How a hygrometer work?
Any instrument for measuring the humidity, or water vapour content, of a gas (usually air). A wet and dry bulb hygrometer consists of two vertical thermometers, with one of the bulbs covered in absorbent cloth dipped into water. As the water evaporates, the bulb cools, producing a temperature difference between the two thermometers. The amount of evaporation, and hence cooling of the wet bulb, depends on the relative humidity of the air.

Formula to work out humidity?
Relative Humidity can be measured with a psychrometer. A psychrometer has two thermometers, a wet-bulb and dry-bulb. The wet-bulb has a wet cloth on one end. If the wet-bulb is colder than the dry-bulb, than you apply the information to a psychrometer chart, which tells you the relative humidity, from which you can determine "high" or "low". http://andrewslog.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/48d16354-752c-4965-9c43-024073c31186.jpg
