10.2 What is WB
Wet Bulb Temperature -- WB
Wet-bulb temperature is measured with a wet-bulb thermometer, which is a regular thermometer with a wet
muslin wick cover.
To calculate wet-bulb temperature without using a wet-bulb thermometer, existing dry-bulb temperature and
relative temperature are used on the aspirated psychrometer humidity table that is JIS standard Z8806
compliant. In this manual; however, we uses Newtonian approximation based on the assumption of a
temperature measured on a wet-bulb thermometer being lower than a dry-bulb thermometer.

10.3 What is AH
Absolute Humidity -- AH
Absolute humidity represents an amount of water vapor contents per 1kg of dry air.
To calculate absolute humidity, apply temperature and relative humidity on below formula.
