What is the dew point when the dry bulb temperature is 14C and the dry bulb temperature is 8C?
-9c
When wet bulb temperature and dry bulb temperature are equal?
for air water system wet bulb equals to dry bulb at 100 % relative humidity for that given temperature of air.
What would happen if a wet bulb had the same temperature as a dry bulb?
That means that there is 100% humidity. Normally evaporation from the wet bulb keeps its temperature lower than the dry bulb. At 100% humidity, there would be no evaporation, so they would show the same temperature.
What is the dew-point temperature when the dry bulb temperature is 16 degrees Celsius and the wet bulb temperature is 11 degrees Celsius?
-17
What is the dew-point when the dry bulb temperature is 20C and the relative humidity is 17?
at 17% relative humidity the dew point is -5.8C at a dry bulb of 20C
What does a wet bulb and a dry bulb measure?
A wet bulb measures the temperature after water evaporation allows to cool and a dry bulb measures air temperature.
What is the dew point when the dry bulb temperature is 14C and the dry bulb temperature is 8C?
-9c
What are the functions of a dry bulb thermometer?
A dry bulb thermometer is an ordinary one. It's given this name when it's used to measure air temperature. A wet bulb thermometer takes into account humidity.
When wet bulb temperature and dry bulb temperature are equal?
for air water system wet bulb equals to dry bulb at 100 % relative humidity for that given temperature of air.
What would the dew point temperature be when the wet and dry bulb temperature are the same?
the "current" temperature, ie, the temperature at which wet bulb and dry bulb are the same. when the wet bulb and dry bulb temperaturs equalized the dew point emperature equals them, because the air is saturated now.
What is atmospheric depression?
it is difference between wet bulb temperature and dry bulb temperature.
What is Psychometer?
An instrument that uses the difference in readings between two thermometers, one having a wet bulb and the other having a dry bulb, to measure the moisture content or relative humidity of air.
What is a temperature depression?
Dry bulb Temperature - Dew Point Temperature
Why did the wet-bulb temperature record a lower temperature then a dry-bulb temperature?
the evaporation off the moisture on the wet bulb absorbs the heat.
What step should you follow to measure humidity with a psychrometer?
A sling psychrometer (or hygrometer) uses the difference in readings between a wet bulb thermometer and another with a dry bulb to measure the relative humidity. The bulb that is wet will cool by evaporation to the "dew point", which is the temperature at which the current humidity would be the maximum possible. Comparing that to the dry bulb (the general air temperature) on a comparative chart will yield the approximate relative humidity.
What instrument measures relative humidity using wet-bulb and dry-bulb thermometers?
Hygrometer
What is the relative humidity when the dry-bulb temperature is C and the wet bulb temperature is C?
50 percent
