Psychrometric Calculations & Formulas

Input Parameters

Dry Bulb Temperature (T): Air temperature measured by standard thermometer (°C)

Relative Humidity (RH): Ratio of actual to saturated vapor pressure (%)

Air Pressure (P): Atmospheric pressure (hPa)

Vapor Pressure

Saturated Vapor Pressure:

VPsat = 0.61078 × e^(17.27×T / (T+237.3))

Vapor Pressure:

VP = VPsat × (RH / 100)

Vapor Pressure Deficit:

VPD = VPsat - VP

Humidity

Absolute Humidity:

AH = (VP × 1,000,000) / (461.52 × (T + 273.15))

Unit: g/m³

Dewpoint Temperature:

Dewpoint = (237.3 × ln(VP/0.61078)) / (17.27 - ln(VP/0.61078))

Enthalpy

Total Heat Content:

h = 1.006 × T + (AH/1000) × (2501 + 1.86 × T)

Unit: kJ/kg

Where 1.006 is specific heat of dry air, 2501 is latent heat of vaporization
