Humid Air

Humid air always contains dry air and steam. Once the saturation is exceeded water droplets and ice occur. The calculations presented are limited to relative saturation up to 100%. In good approximation dry air and steam can be regarded as ideal gases. The calculations are valid for humid air at ambient pressure and temperatures between 5 - 70 [°C].

Enter volume flow of humid air. Mass flow of dry air is assumed to stay constant.
Enter temperature of humid air.
Enter ambient pressure.
Enter relative humidity.

Missing values for state 2 will automatically be completed with values of state 1.
The dew point of a humid air is the temperature at which its realive humidity reaches 100%. Relative humidity equals 100%, if the partial pressure of steam equals its saturation pressure.
