For a system containing a mixture of air and water, the wet-bulb temperature is the same as the adiabatic saturation temperature. True or False?

Respuesta :

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Both of them are involve with water and air, but there is a slightly difference, In the wet bulb temperature, the thermometer is covered by a wet cloth, and is always equal to or less than the dry point temperature, but always greater than dew point temperature.

In the adiabatic saturation temperature, you need to convert water into air by the process of evaporation adiabatically, that means, no transfer of heat or mass. This is the main difference among these two processes.
