Which of the following parameters remains almost constant during adiabatic saturation of unsaturated air ?
Correct answer: A. Wet bulb temperature
- A. Wet bulb temperature
- B. Dew point
- C. Dry bulb temperature
- D. None of these
Explanation
Adiabatic saturation occurs at essentially constant wet-bulb temperature because sensible cooling of the air supplies the latent heat for evaporation. Dry-bulb temperature and dew point generally change during the process.
