We’ve recently received several reader requests asking us how to calculate relative humidity if the temperature and dew point are known. Relative humidity is the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of ...

A researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry in Mainz, Germany, has suggested a very simple formula for converting between the relative humidity and the dew point temperature without needing ...

The relationship between relative humidity when cold air from outside is brought into a heated plant, office or home and wood is rather straightforward. I firmly believe that woodworkers should be ...

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- You may have noticed that in our broadcasts here on CBS3, we constantly refer to a thing called the "dewpoint" during the summer months. Many have asked "what about the relative ...

It is now officially the start of the summer season and we’ve been feeling the muggy conditions already in Eastern Iowa. When it gets hot, you may hear us use the terms dew point, relative humidity, ...

Relative humidity and dew point both give us an idea of the amount of moisture in the atmosphere; however, only dew point is a true measurement of the atmospheric moisture. Relative humidity is ...

“Relative” in relative humidity refers to the maximum amount of water vapor that air can hold at a specific temperature. A relative humidity value of 50 percent means the air contains half of the ...

Relative humidity is greatly misunderstood. It is the ratio of the actual amount of water vapor present in the air at a given temperature to the maximum amount that the air could hold at that ...
