Abstract In heating, Wet-bulb temperature in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) applications is crucial for building the equipment. But radiation
from the surrounding surfaces caused the errors during the thermodynamic wet-bulb temperature measurement. The wet-bulb temperature of moist air
is measured in the current work utilising an aspiration psychrometer designed, developed, and built to reduce the error term caused by radiation and
convection heat transfer. Wet-bulb temperature is calculated in the experiments using an aspiration psychrometer at various locations throughout the
year, both with and without a shield. It has been found that the error term depends on several factors,… More >
