[TRNSYS-users] Mistake in type 33i

[David BRADLEY]

Yose,
   The psychrometrics routine has to use some iterative methods in order 
to solve for all the air properties when it is given certain 
combinations for which the properties cannot be determined directly. 
When RH and w are specified it has to iterate to find a drybulb 
temperature that has the same saturation pressure as the saturation 
pressure that can be computed directly from knowing RH and w. There are 
tolerances on the iterative calculations and with your two input values 
(RH=60% and w=0.006) the iteration continues until the saturation 
pressure for the guessed dry bulb temperature is within 0.01 kPa of the 
saturation pressure computed from RH and w. Tightening the tolerance on 
that iteration (which is one of a few iterations) causes the recomputed 
RH to come out closer to the starting value but I suspect that simply 
tightening the iterative tolerance would not always result in the 
recomputed value being equal to the starting value.
kind regards,
  David
