Abstract

Humidity is a key parameter in controlling drying processes and ambient conditions in many industrial manufacturing, storage and test applications. Air humidity is routinely measured at temperatures above 100 °C and at conditions that are often challenging due to temporal and local variations. Calibrations of humidity sensors do not provide appropriate representativeness of measurement conditions because they are limited to temperatures below 100 °C and static conditions. A European metrology research project HIT (“Metrology for Humidity at High Temperatures and Transient conditions”) is developing improved humidity measurement and calibration techniques to temperatures up to 180 °C and non-static conditions. This paper summaries developments of the project: calibration and test facilities for industrial hygrometers, studies on humidity control in specific microbial transient processes and a new measurement approach for water activity measurements.
