Abstract

Abstract A discussion is given of the use of a total pressure-temperature diagram provided with reversible adiabatic and specific-humidity lines for mixtures of air and water vapor. The graphical relation between dew-point temperature, dry-bulb temperature, and specific humidity is given directly for any total pressure on this chart. From this relation the vapor pressure and relative humidity can be easily calculated. Certain chart lines give a close approximation to the wet-bulb temperature for a limited range. This pressure-temperature chart should be convenient and useful for a wide variety of problems which involve these fundamental thermodynamic properties.
