Dry-Bulb Temperature 1


Dry-Bulb Temperature 1 :

Dry-Bulb Temperature(DBT) is the temperature of air measured by a thermometer freely exposed to the air but shielded from radiation and moisture. DBT is the temperature that is usually thought of as air temperature, and it is the true thermodynamic temperature. As a matter of fact, it indicates the amount of heat in the air and it is directly proportional to the mean kinetic energy of the air molecules. Temperature is usually measured in degrees Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K), or Fahrenheit (°F). Unlike wet bulb temperature, dry bulb temperature does not indicate the amount of moisture in the air. In construction, it is an important consideration when designing a building for a certain climate. Niall called it one of "the most important climate variables for human comfort and building energy efficiency. DBT is indeed an important variable in Psychrometrics, being the horizontal axis of a Psychrometric chart. An OSH glossary used in safety and health at work which is, adopted by ILO
