  2. 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 ...

  3. HVAC control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVAC_control_system

    The program features include time schedules, set points, controllers, logic, timers, trend logs, and alarms. The unit controllers typically have analog and digital inputs that allow measurement of the variable (temperature, humidity, or pressure) and analog and digital outputs for control of the transport medium (hot/cold water and/or steam ...

    dehumidifier A dehumidifier is the equipment that extracts and removes humidity from the air. It works by cooling air to the point where water turns to liquid from vapor form and then the liquid is removed. diffuser A diffuser is placed over ductwork, and it separates air with vanes going in differing directions.

  5. Psychrometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychrometrics

    Humid heat is the constant-pressure specific heat of moist air, per unit mass of the dry air. [8] The humid heat is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of unit mass of a water vapor - air mixture by 1 °C.

  6. Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and...

    HVAC systems can be used in both domestic and commercial environments. HVAC systems can provide ventilation, and maintain pressure relationships between spaces. The means of air delivery and removal from spaces is known as room air distribution. [2]

  7. Humidifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidifier

    Human water losses, both respiratory, and insensible water loss like sweat, range in average 0.75 L/d in sedentary adults. [14] However, most people do not spend most of the day at home. Houseplants may also be used as natural humidifiers, especially if they are placed in fabric flowerpots, since they evaporate water into the air through ...

  8. Humidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity

    This is because the vapor pressure of water increases with temperature—the operative principle behind everything from hair dryers to dehumidifiers. Due to the increasing potential for a higher water vapor partial pressure at higher air temperatures, the water content of air at sea level can get as high as 3% by mass at 30 °C (86 °F ...

  9. Air purge system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_purge_system

    The differential pressure trip is connected to the inlet and the outlet of the main filter of the air blower. Failure is indicated by a decrease in the differential pressure. The low-pressure trip connects to the main filter outlet. If the pressure drops below a pre-set level, the trip relay operates.
