10. Calculation Result: DT, WB, AH, and HR
10.1 What is DT
DT -- Dew Point Temperature
Air with higher temperature contains more water vapor, and the air reaches a saturation point as
temperature lowered (Relative humidity: 100%). Then continuously lowered temperature causes water
vapor to start condensing -- this temperature is called Dew Point Temperature.
There are many formulas to calculate the Dew Point Temperature; however, this manual uses calculation in
conformity with JIS standard Z8806.
