Psychrometrics uses thermodynamic properties to analyzeconditions and processes involving moist air. This chapter discusses perfectgas relations and their use in common heating, cooling, and humidity controlproblems. Formulas developed by Herrmann et al. (2009) may be used wheregreater precision is required.
