Wet bulb temperature is the temperature of air recorded by a thermometer, when
A. It is not affected by the moisture present in the air
B. Its bulb is surrounded by a wet cloth exposed to the air
C. The moisture present in it begins to condense
D. None of the above
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Wet-bulb temperature. The wet-bulb temperature (WBT) is the temperature read by a thermometer covered in water-soaked cloth (wet-bulb thermometer) over which air is passed. At 100% relative humidity, the wet-bulb temperature is equal to the air temperature (dry-bulb temperature) and it is lower at lower humidity.This Question Belongs to Mechanical Engineering >> Refrigeration And Air Conditioning
