Temperature and Humidity Balance of Premises
نویسنده
چکیده
This article describes the mechanisms affecting the thermal behavior of buildings. This behavior depends upon the temperature and humidity balance in premises. First the physical mechanisms of heat transfer are explained, followed by a description of the heat and humidity sources and sinks in premises. The next three sections deal with the physics of psychrometry, necessary for understanding the humidity balance. Finally, the last section describes the principles of humidification and dehumidification systems.

Evaluation of Radon Pollution in Underground Parking Lots by Discomfort Index
Introduction Recent studies of public underground parking lots showed the influence of radon concentration and the probable discomfort caused by parking cars. Materials and Methods Radon concentration was measured in semi-closed public parking lots in the six governorates of Kuwait, using Durridge RAD7radon detector (USA). Results The peak radon concentration in the parking lots of Kuwait gover...
متن کاملThe Influence of Meteorology on the Spread of Influenza: Survival Analysis of an Equine Influenza (A/H3N8) Outbreak
The influences of relative humidity and ambient temperature on the transmission of influenza A viruses have recently been established under controlled laboratory conditions. The interplay of meteorological factors during an actual influenza epidemic is less clear, and research into the contribution of wind to epidemic spread is scarce. By applying geostatistics and survival analysis to data fro...
متن کاملComplex Interactions between Temperature and Relative Humidity on Water Balance of Adult Tsetse (Glossinidae, Diptera): Implications for Climate Change
Insect water balance plays an important role in determining energy budgets, activity patterns, survival, and population dynamics and, hence, geographic distribution. Tsetse (Glossina spp.) are important vectors of human and animal disease occupying a wide range of habitats in Africa and are notable for their desiccation resistance in xeric environments. Here, we measure water balance and relate...
متن کاملComparison of selected thermal indices in the northwest of Iran
The present study compared simple thermal indices and the indices derived from energy budget models in the northwest of Iran. For this purpose, the air temperature, solar radiation, relative humidity, cloud, cover and wind speed of 13 meteorological stations in the northwest of Iran during the the period of 1986 to 2007 were selected for comparison. The results which were extracted using Biokl...
متن کاملPattern Changes Analysis Of Soil Temperature In Different Depths Under The Influence Of Humidity And Air Temperature (Case Study: Taleghan Watershed)
In this study, to analyze the pattern of soil temperature changes in the depths of 5, 10, 20, 30, 50 and 100 cm under the influence of temperature (minimum, average and maximum) and humidity (minimum, average and maximum) the Pearson and regression methods were used for Taleghaan synoptic station during the period of 2008 to 2016 . The results showed that soil temperature had the highest corre...
