Psychrometry is the science and technology that relates to the thermodynamics (= movement of energy between) of gas-vapor mixtures.
When dealing with processes involving exchange of mass and energy between a liquidand an essentially insoluble gas, the principles of psychrometry are useful.
Psychrometry is concerned with determination of the properties of gas-vapor mixtures.
Psychrometry is the science and technology that relates to the thermodynamics of gas-vapor mixtures.
PronunciationNote the pronunciation of this word. The 'ps' at the beginning is pronounced 's',and the 'ch' is pronounced as a hard 'k' sound. The main stress is on the second syllable.
