Psychrometric chart

Add states, draw the processes between them — a cooling coil on and off, a condenser or reheat, outside-air mixing, an evaporative pad — and read every point. Any altitude. The drawing is the link in your address bar.

The same chart lives in the app as a tab of its own, where a solved system draws every air process it made onto it: open it in the app.

What it is for

A coil is selected on the entering air's enthalpy and humidity ratio and judged on where its leaving state lands; a mixing box's mixed state sits on the straight line between return and outside air; an evaporative pad slides along a wet-bulb line; reheat moves horizontally. Drawing them is how a process is checked before it is solved — and the builder draws exactly this chart for a solved system.
