Then the sensible and latent heat transfer modes in a cooling coil are decoupled, assuming a constant value of the SHR and the saturation curve slope within each element; the SHR value represents the element conditions, whether completely wet, completely dry, or partially wet.
The measured strips are then used to chart a saturation curve that plots the arc height versus the exposure time.
T] denoting Points of tangency for "ideal" air-cooling processes terminating on the saturation curve (except for the air-bypassed portion), where "ideal" refers to cases in which SHR of "air-warmup" (as labeled on Figures 10 and 11) is equal to or lower than SHR of the air-cooling paths terminating at [N.
