Author(s) : YAJIMA R.

Type of article: Article

Summary

HUMIDITY OF THE AIR IS USUALLY REPRESENTED BY THE PERCENTAGE RELATIVE HUMIDITY, HENCE ONE MUST REMEMBER THAT THIS RELATIVE HUMIDITY CHANGES WITH THE TEMPERATURE EVEN THOUGH THE WATER CONTENT IN AIR REMAINS THE SAME AND SINCE THE LEVEL OF RELATIVE HUMIDITY IS DETERMINED FROM THE VALUE OBTAINED IN AN ATMOSPHERE WITH CLEAN AIR AND PURE WATER, THE VALUE OF RELATIVE HUMIDITY MEASURED IN A DIRTY ATMOSPHERE IS INCORRECT. IN CONSIDERATION OF THE ABOVE, THE AUTHOR MAKES REFERENCE TO MEASUREMENT ACCURACY AND GENERAL NOTES ON THE USE OF STANDARD HYGROMETERS IN AIR CONDITIONING AND REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS.
