Abstract

A method and apparatus for determining the dew point or dew point depression which is arranged for unattended operation and is extremely accurate in the vicinity of very small dew point depressions. In addition to measuring present dew point depression, historical records are maintained and the device is arranged to perform a time trend analysis so as to provide for short term future prediction. Output is provided via a voice synthesizer and a radio. Dew point depression is computed by determining the adiabatic change in volume required to produce condensation. The change in volume is produced by rapidly expanding a test chamber. The measurement cycle concludes with a compression step to raise chamber temperature to at least freezing.
