CONCLUSION
This study tries to analyze the theory of measuring
humidity based on dry-bulb and wet-bulb temperatures.
And a theoretical formula is deduced for the calculation
of relative humidity from dry-bulb and wet-bulb
temperatures on the basis of accurately determining the
empirical formulas of measuring humidity coefficient
and saturation vapor pressure. A conversion table is
produced according to the theoretical formula. A method
is proposed to obtain humidity by combining searching
table and linear smoothing algorithm, which is suitable
for rapid control. Experimental data shows that,
compared with the traditional manual searching table,
the proposed method is not only simple and fast but also
has high veracity. And its relative error is less than 4%.
Therefore, the proposed method has certain value for
humidity control in industrial control process.
