Dew point temperature of wet air stream at variable pressure
Abstract
One of the examples of how atmospheric air could be utilized includes its use as a carrier of mechanical energy transmitted by various devices, e.g. air compressors, constituting parts of various technical systems. In many of them, atmospheric air is subjected to significant changes in static pressure. This research paper specifies the effect of the variable static pressure on the dew point temperature of wet air. This issue was presented both analytically and graphically. The knowledge will allow to effectively identify these areas in which the water vapour contained in the air will be subject to phase changes, unfavourable for humans.
