Psychrometric Chart for Thermal Comfort

Comfort is defined as a pleasant feeling produced by one's surroundings, involving temperature, humidity, air movement, and cleanliness. Psychrometrics is the study of air properties and mixtures, including relative humidity, dew point, dry bulb temperature, and wet bulb temperature. A psychrometric chart can be used to analyze air processes, design air conditioning for thermal comfort, and determine properties like specific enthalpy and humidity ratio. Thermal comfort zones include cool, optimum, and warm comfort ranges based on temperature.

Defines

● Comfort Describes a delicate balance of


pleasant feeling in the body produced by its
surroundings. There are involves :
– Temperature
– Humidity
– Air Movement
– Air Cleanliness
● Psychrometrics is study about properties and
mixture of the air
Psychrometric diagram purpose??

● To know the thermodynamic properties of the


air (e.q. RH, Dew point, Dry Bulb, Wet Bulb,
Humidity Ratio)
● Analyze occurred process of the air (e.q.
Sensible Cooling, Sensible Heating, Cooling &

humidification, Cooling & Humidification,
Heating & Humidification, Humidification,
Dehumidifaction
● Designing Air Condition for Thermal Comfort
Thermal Comfort
a. Cool Comfort (20.5°C- 22.8°C)
b. Optimum Comfort (22.8°C- 25°C)
c. Warm Comfort (25.8°C- 27.1°C)
