Wet-bulb temperatureWhen a wet wick is placed over a standard thermometer and air is blown across the surface, the water evaporates and cools the thermometer below the dry-bulb temperature. This cooler temperature, the wet-bulb temperature, depends upon how much moisture there is in the air.

Wet-bulb temperatureThe lowest temperature you can reach by evaporating water into the air. The water sucks up energy to evaporate, cooling the air, and this process can go on until the air is saturated and relative humidity equals 100%. So wet bulb temperature is always between the air temperature and the dew point temperature. The awesome thing is that sometimes in [..]

Wet-bulb temperatureThe wet-bulb temperature is a type of temperature measurement that reflects the physical properties of a system with a mixture of a gas and a vapor, usually air and water vapor. Wet bulb temperature is the lowest temperature that can be reached by the evaporation of water only. It is the temperature one feels when one's skin is wet and is expo [..]
