  2. Humidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity

    Specific humidity (or moisture content) is the ratio of the mass of water vapor to the total mass of the air parcel. [15] Specific humidity is approximately equal to the mixing ratio, which is defined as the ratio of the mass of water vapor in an air parcel to the mass of dry air for the same parcel.

  3. Humidity buffering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity_buffering

    A pan of water is placed in the humidor so that the wood will absorb water vapor at close to 100% relative humidity. It is then used to store the cigars at fairly constant relative humidity, between 55 and 70%.

  4. Indoor air quality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indoor_air_quality

    Mold growth can be inhibited by keeping surfaces at conditions that are further from condensation, with relative humidity levels below 75%. This usually translates to a relative humidity of indoor air below 60%, in agreement with the guidelines for thermal comfort that recommend a relative humidity between 40 and 60 %.

  5. Thermal comfort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_comfort

    The recommended level of indoor humidity is in the range of 30–60% in air conditioned buildings, [34] [35] but new standards such as the adaptive model allow lower and higher humidity, depending on the other factors involved in thermal comfort. Recently, the effects of low relative humidity and high air velocity were tested on humans after ...

  6. Evaporative cooler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

    The air supplied by the evaporative cooler is generally 80–90% relative humidity and can cause interior humidity levels as high as 65%; very humid air reduces the evaporation rate of moisture from the skin, nose, lungs, and eyes. High humidity in air accelerates corrosion, particularly in the presence of dust. This can considerably reduce the ...

  7. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air. The vapor content of air is measured with devices known as hygrometers. The measurements are usually expressed as specific humidity or percent relative humidity. The temperatures of the atmosphere and the water surface determine the equilibrium vapor pressure; 100% relative humidity occurs when ...

  8. WELL Building Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WELL_Building_Standard

    T07 Humidity Control, control of humidity receives 1 point by having mechanical system that can maintain relative humidity 30% to 60% at all times or submitting document that modeled relative humidity levels in space from 30% to 60% for at least 98% of all business hours or by meeting thermal comfort monitoring (T06) with relative humidity ...

  9. Lifting condensation level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_condensation_level

    To determine the dew point, in contrast, the pressure is kept constant, and the air parcel is cooled by bringing it into contact with a colder body (this is like the condensation you see on the outside of a glass full of a cold drink). Below the LCL, the dew point temperature is less than the actual ("dry bulb") temperature.
