Introduction to Psychrometry
• Basics
• The atmosphere
• Water vapour
• Saturated vapour pressure
• Also, Appendix - Thermodynamic Basics
• Perfect gas laws
• 1st law of thermodynamics
• Conservation of energy
Introduction to Psychrometry
• Psychrometry
• The study of atmospheric air and its associated
water vapour
• Dryy air and moist air
• Dalton’s law of partial pressures
• Standard atmospheric pressure = 101.325 kPa
• Saturated
S t t d vapour pressure
• Max. ppressure of water vapour

• Do you know how to find out the moist air
properties using the psychrometric chart?
Introduction to Psychrometry
• Commonly used psychrometric charts

• CIBSE psychrometric chart
• Why are they slightly different?
• Can yyou find out the differences?
Psychrometric Processes
• Common processes:
• Sensible cooling / sensible heating
• Cooling and dehumidification / heating and
humidification
• Humidification / dehumidification
• Evaporative
