| Abstract: | ABSTRACT A need exists for a simple device to measure the psychrometric properties of high temperature and high humidity air. To meet this need, a small laboratory double-wick psychrometer was developed and tested which showed good results to 175°C dry bulb temperature and 100°C wet bulb temperature. Based on the results of the laboratory unit, a portable prototype psychrometric system was designed and built. The overall design provided quick measurement and indication of wet bulb temperature, dry bulb temperature, humidity, and enthalpy of a high temperature air stream. |
