- It is not affected by the moisture present in the air
- Its bulb is surrounded by a wet cloth exposed to the air
- The moisture present in it begins to condense
- None of the above
Answer: Option 2
Wet-bulb temperature. The wet-bulb temperature (WBT) is the temperature read by a thermometer covered in water-soaked cloth (wet-bulb thermometer) over which air is passed. At 100% relative humidity, the wet-bulb temperature is equal to the air temperature (dry-bulb temperature) and it is lower at lower humidity.
Answer: Option 1 When the air is passed through an insulated chamber having sprays of water maintained at a temperature higher than the dew point temperature of entering air but...
