It represents the measure of sensible heat present. The pressure in a duct due to the linear movement of the air. It is the difference the total pressure and the static pressure. The number of rotations made by a spinning object over the course of one minute. Temperature taken that takes into account he moisture content of the air, it reflects the total heat content (sensible & latent) of the air. The temperature at which air becomes saturated with water vapor, and the water starts t condense into droplets; at state of 100% relative humidity The total resistance of all objects and ductwork in the air distribution system beyond the blower assembly. A unit of measure for the volume of air flowing pas a point in one minute. An assembly containing a fan used to depressurize a building by drawing air out, to support duct leak testing. The speed that the air is moving. The rate of airflow is usually measured in feet per minute (fpm) A graphic method of showing the relationship of various air properties. A tool used to take pressure measurements in a moving air stream. The sum of the static pressure and the velocity pressure in an air duct. The ratio of the amount of moisture present in a given sample of air to the amount it can hold at saturation. Expressed in percent.
