Overview

Engineering reference data for Evaporative Cooling in air psychrometrics.

Key Formulas

Humidity Ratio

$\omega = 0.622 \frac{P_v}{P_a}$

Mass of water vapor per mass of dry air.

Relative Humidity

$\phi = \frac{P_v}{P_{vs}} \times 100\%$

Ratio of actual to saturation vapor pressure.

Wet Bulb Temperature

$T_{wb} = T_{db} - \frac{P_{vs} - P_v}{\gamma}$

Temperature measured by wet-bulb thermometer.

Enthalpy of Moist Air

$h = c_p T + \omega h_g$

Sensible + latent heat per unit mass of dry air.
