Wet Bulb Temperature

Wet Bulb Temperature (WBT)

The wet-bulb temperature is a method of measuring temperature that reflects the physical properties of a system with a mixture of a gas and a vapour, typicallly air and water vapour.

The wet bulb temperature is the lowest temperature that can be reached by the evaporation of water only.

It is the temperature you feel when your skin is wet and is exposed to moving air and is an indication of the amount of moisture in the air.
