INTRODUCTION
Psychrometrics and Psychrometric chart:Psychrometrics / psychrometry is the study of the

properties of air.
Psychrometric chart is the graphical
representation of air properties and condition.
Psychrometric chart simplifies the measurement
of air properties.
Air properties include dryblub temperature, wet
bulb temperature, relative humidity, dew point
and grains of moisture.
Air condition include temperature, humidity and
condensation point (or dew point).

PSYCHROMETRICS TERMS
Dry-bulb temperature:- it is the temperature of

the air as measured by an ordinary thermometer.

Wet-bulb temperature:- it is the temperature of

the air as measured by an ordinary thermometer


whose glass bulb is covered by a cloth soak.

Relative humidity:- it is the ratio of actual amount

of moisture present, to the amount of moisture the


air could hold at the given temperature.

Grains of moisture:- it is the unit of measurement

of the amount of moisture in the air.

Dew point temperature:- it is the temperature at

which moisture condenses on a surface.

USE OF PSYCHROMETRICS
CHART
If the value of any two of the psychrometric terms

are known the value of any other term can be


found on the psychrometric chart.
The psychrometric chart is shaped like a boot .
Sole is the dry-bulb temperature scale.
Instep curve is the wet-bulb temperature and dew
point temperature.
Humidity lines are approximately
Parallel to the instep curve and
follow along the side of the sole.
The grains of moisture scale is
along the back of the shoe.
