Popis:	Kiln drying of timber sometimes makes use of air at well above 100 °C and at very high humidities. The psychometric charts of Carrier and Mollier do not normally accommodate such air states and so they are not useful. Charts are given herein which use the axes ln r and ln ps where r is the relative humidity and ps is the pressure of water vapour at saturation. Such charts accommodate the above conditions without difficulty and fit tidily onto a rectangular sheet. The values of ps are not shown but they are expressed as a function of dry-bulb temperature, which is shown on the charts. Charts are given for normal and high temperature ranges, and to display different properties we have chosen to use separate charts rather than to fit too much information on a single chart.
