[ILM] 102D Flashcards
wet thermometer gives
a wet bulb temperature
if the air is perfectly dry, then that air sample is said to have
zero enthalpy
sublimation
the phase change from a solid directly to a vapour without passing through the liquid state
Dew Point(DP)
an air condition in which dry and wet bulb temperatures are the same
most people are comfortable in a relative humidity ranging between
30-60%
how many grains in 1lb of water
7000 grains
the higher the specific density of air,
the greater the horsepower rate the fan and its driving motor require to move the heavier air
Volatile Organic Compounds
emit toxic gases
VOC
wet air is lighter than dry air
T or F
True
Standard air
Temp: 68F
Press: 14.7 psia

Air transfers heat in 3 ways:
- Radiation
- Conduction
- Convection
Radiation
gas only
Convection
gas or liquid
Conduction
solid
pressure is
the amount of force applied per unit area
