It also helps in understanding the relation between temperature and humidity on the basis of its particular type. The difference between the humidity of two regions is generally known as humidity gradient. Humidity after condensation leads to the formation of clouds and these clouds lead to precipitation and this precipitation can occur in any form such as rainfall, snowfall, hailstone, sleet, etc. Humidity basically helps in determining the water vapour in the air ie. You will also learn the relationship of relative humidity with pressure or temperature as well.
In this article, we will learn about what is humidity, the difference between the two types of humidity, relative humidity meaning, its formula or percentage and examples, various uses or effects etc. In this article, we will be talking about this concept of Geography or Geophysics ie. These are the basic points of daily weather forecasting and in this relative humidity plays a vital role.
Comfort, in reality, is not a static thing and the assumption that a single polygon can represent the dynamism of your thermal preference is inherently flawed.You must have heard or checked the weather forecasters saying that there is a relative humidity of this much percentage at a certain region, or there can be chances of a cloud formation or even the chances of rainfall, etc. To assess comfort over long periods of time, you should really be running the PMV comfort component and you should probably account for how the wind and MRT change over time as well as people’s clothing. In the end, the psychometric chart is just a means to help you visualize temperature and humidity and it is not really a tool for measuring how comfortable a space is over a long time period. I can just tell people that the assumption of a single MRT and windSpeed is a limitation of the one-polygon psych chart methodology. Nor can I accurately plot the strategy polygons. Alternatively, I can plot two comfort polygons showing the range from warmest comfort to coldest comfort across the 8760 values but, with this, I can’t allow the user to plot multiple metRate or cloValue polygons.
The simplest option would just be to not allow the user to plot any polygons on the chart in this case. The issue here becomes what to do with comfort and strategy polygons. If someone connects up epw data or a list of 8760 values to either MRT or windSpeed of the psych chart, I assume that the user wants to align the data and I just pass the aligned values through the PMV function. I have realized that this discrepancy can be confusing to people and I can think of 2 ways of addressing it: This is because the PMV component assumes that the MRT is the same as the dry bulb temperature by default while the psych chart needs to assume that there is only one MRT value for all hours in order to draw only one comfort polygon. At present, when you plug in epw values to both the psych chart and the PMV comfort component, you do not get the same percentage of comfortable hours out of the two components.
You should also note that you can connect up the chartHourPoints output of the psych chart to a native GH “Point” component to see the point in Rhino.įinally, I would like to take this opportunity to get your thoughts on another topic that Mostapha mentioned to me earlier. Still, if you make a case here that exposing such an input would help you better coordinate your point values, I can do it. I originally did not expose this parameter as an input to the component because the psychrometric chart was already so large and it currently has the most inputs of all components in Ladybug. Because humidity ratio values are so small, I multiply them by a scaling factor that is set inside the component: I have fixed it in the copy of the components on the github and in the attached GH file.Īs for the second issue of aligning points in Rhino space with the chart, you have already realized that the temperature is plotted with 1 Rhino unit equal to 1 degree temperature. Thank you for finding it and reporting it.
