Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Warning Calculated Humidity Ratio



Hello,
Actually the dry bulb is above the wet bulb,
     Dry-Bulb=  -24.40 Wet-Bulb= -25.40
-25.4C is less than -24.4C or about 1 degree lower.  The problem is that 
the wet bulb is too low and then the calculated RH is slightly 
negative.  The RH routine then resets RH to slightly above 0, a physical 
possibility.

Thanks Richard Liesen
