What is Adiabatic Saturation Temperature? Humidification & Dehumidification || Mass Transfer
Adiabatic saturation temperature is defined as that temperature at which water, by evaporating into air, can bring the air to saturation at the same temperature adiabatically. An adiabatic saturator is a device using which one can measure theoretically the adiabatic saturation temperature of air.
The adiabatic saturation process is not practical. To determine the absolute and relative humidity of air, a more practical approach is to use a thermometer whose bulb is covered with a cotton wick saturated with water and to blow air over the wick.
