Seeking help with relative humidity issue

2021-05-19View Original

Thread Content

There is an issue of relative humidity in the calculations for heat exchangers. When the relative humidity is 60%, does this mean that 40% moisture must be taken into account in the heat transfer calculations, which in turn results in larger values being obtained for the heat exchanger? Does a higher relative humidity value indicate a purer medium? Does a relative humidity of 100% mean it is a dry gas? I hope the experts here can give me some advice! !

When performing heat transfer calculations at a relative humidity of 60%, the water content must be taken into account; however, this does not apply to a humidity level of 40%. As a result, the load generally increases, leading to higher consumption of cooling water; A relative humidity of 100% means it is saturated; humidity levels are close to this value on rainy days as well.
