WetBulbTemp - [source code]

Use this component to calculate Wet Bulb Temperature and Dew Point Temperature

This component uses the "Method for obtaining wet-bulb temperatures by modifying the psychrometric formula" created by J. Sullivan and L. D. Sanders (Center for Experiment Design and Data Analysis). NOAA - National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Special thanks goes to the authors of the online wet-bulb temperature calculator http://www.srh.noaa.gov/epz/?n=wxcalc_rh

Inputs

  • dryBulbTemperature [Required]

The dry bulb temperature [°C] from Import epw component and Ladybug_Average Data or generic lists of numbers.

  • relativeHumidity [Required]

The relative humidity [%] from Import epw component and Ladybug_Average Data or generic lists of numbers.

  • barometricPressure [Default]

The barometric pressure [Pa] from Import epw component and Ladybug_Average Data or generic lists of numbers. If no value is connected here, the default pressure will be 101325 Pa, which is air pressure at sea level.

Outputs

...

  • wetBulbTemp

The lowest temperature that can be reached by evaporating water into the air.

  • dewPointTemp

The temperature at which the water vapor contained in a volume of air at a given atmospheric pressure reaches saturation and condenses to form dew.
