INDOOR HUMIDITY CALCULATIONS.

Author(s) : KUSUDA T.

Summary

MEASURED HOURLY DATA ON INDOOR HUMIDITY ARE COMPARED WITH THE DATA OBTAINED FROM CALCULATED VALUES. THE MEASURED VALUES ARE USUALLY VERY MUCH DIFFERENT FROM THE CALCULATED VALUES IF NO CONSIDERATIONS ARE GIVEN TO THE MOISTURE ABSORPTION AND DESORPTION PHENOMENA THAT TAKE PLACE AT THE INTERIOR SURFACES. THE PAPER ALSO INTRODUCES THE TSUCHIYA MODEL THAT PERMITS THE EVALUATION OF ROOM SURFACE MOISTURE ABSORPTION CAPABILITY. THE MODEL IS BASED UPON THE DETAILED SIMULATION CALCULATION FOR ROOM MOISTURE BALANCE THAT INCLUDES THE SURFACE CONDENSATION, EVAPORATION, AND ABSORPTION/DESORPTION COEFFICIENTS.
