  2. Moisture removal efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_removal_efficiency

    DOAS Diagram. Moisture Removal Efficiency (MRE) is a measure of the energy efficiency of any dehumidification process. Moisture removal efficiency is the water vapor removed from air at a defined inlet air temperature and humidity, divided by the total energy consumed by the dehumidification equipment during the same time period, including all fan and pump energy needed to move air and fluids ...

  3. Dehumidifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dehumidifier

    A typical "portable" dehumidifier can be moved about on built-in casters. A dehumidifier is an air conditioning device which reduces and maintains the level of humidity in the air. [1] This is done usually for health or thermal comfort reasons or to eliminate musty odor and to prevent the growth of mildew by extracting water from the air. It ...

  4. Humidifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidifier

    Insulation leakage: Measured with a standard blower door test. Cubic meters: The volume of the room, excluding the bathroom that should be kept closed since it ventilates humidity. Density of air: Typically 1.2 for dry air. Humidity Current relative humidity: 20%; Humidity needed to reach 55%: 35% Humidity ratio for 35%: 0.0051

  5. Humidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity

    For example, with clothing level = 1, metabolic rate = 1.1, and air speed 0.1 m/s, a change in air temperature and mean radiant temperature from 20 °C to 24 °C would lower the maximum acceptable relative humidity from 100% to 65% to maintain thermal comfort conditions.

  6. Discharge coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discharge_coefficient

    In a nozzle or other constriction, the discharge coefficient (also known as coefficient of discharge or efflux coefficient) is the ratio of the actual discharge to the ideal discharge, [1] i.e., the ratio of the mass flow rate at the discharge end of the nozzle to that of an ideal nozzle which expands an identical working fluid from the same initial conditions to the same exit pressures.

  7. Air changes per hour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_changes_per_hour

    Air changes are often cited as a means of preventing condensation in houses with forced ventilation systems often rated 3–5 ACH though without referencing the size of the house. However, where ACH is already greater than 0.75 a forced ventilation system is unlikely to be of use at controlling condensation and instead insulation or heating are ...

  8. Gate valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_valve

    Another type of bonnet construction in a gate valve is pressure seal bonnet. This construction is adopted for valves for high pressure service, typically in excess of 2250 psi (15 MPa ). The unique feature of the pressure seal bonnet is that the bonnet ends in a downward-facing cup that fits inside the body of the valve.

  9. Rain gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain_gauge

    Acoustic disdrometers, also referred to as hydrophones, are able to sense the sound signatures for each drop size as rain strikes a water surface within the gauge. Since each sound signature is unique, it is possible to invert the underwater sound field to estimate the drop-size distribution within the rain. Selected moments of the drop-size ...
