# psychrometric-basic: Psychrometric Chart for HVAC

## Description

A psychrometric chart plots dry-bulb temperature against humidity ratio,
overlaid with curves for relative humidity, wet-bulb temperature,
enthalpy, and specific volume. It is the fundamental tool for HVAC
system design and air conditioning process analysis. The chart reveals
the thermodynamic properties of moist air at a glance, enabling
engineers to trace heating, cooling, humidification, and
dehumidification processes as paths on the diagram.

## Applications

- HVAC engineering: designing and analyzing air conditioning systems by
tracing process paths (heating, cooling, mixing) on the chart
- Building science: evaluating indoor thermal comfort zones and
identifying condensation risks
- Industrial process engineering: optimizing drying operations and clean
room environmental control

## Data

- `dry_bulb_temp` (float) - Dry-bulb air temperature in degrees Celsius,
x-axis primary variable
- `humidity_ratio` (float) - Mass of water vapor per mass of dry air in
g/kg, y-axis primary variable
- `relative_humidity` (float[]) - Constant relative humidity curves from
10% to 100% in 10% increments
- `wet_bulb_temp` (float[]) - Diagonal lines of constant wet-bulb
temperature
- `enthalpy` (float[]) - Oblique lines of constant enthalpy in kJ/kg
- `specific_volume` (float[]) - Lines of constant specific volume in
m3/kg
- Size: derived from psychrometric equations over a dry-bulb range of
-10 to 50 degrees Celsius
- Example: standard atmosphere (101.325 kPa) psychrometric properties
computed from ASHRAE formulas

## Notes

- The saturation curve (100% RH) forms the upper boundary of the chart
and should be visually prominent
- Relative humidity curves (10%-100%) should be drawn as smooth curves
between the saturation line and x-axis
- Wet-bulb and enthalpy lines run diagonally from upper-left to
lower-right
- Specific volume lines run at a slightly different diagonal angle
- Include at least one example HVAC process path (e.g., cooling and
dehumidification) shown as an arrow or highlighted line segment between
two state points
- A comfort zone region (approximately 20-26 C, 30-60% RH) should be
highlighted as a shaded rectangle or polygon
- All property lines should be labeled directly on the chart, not just
in a legend
- Use standard sea-level atmospheric pressure (101.325 kPa) for
calculations
