The Enthalpy logic block calculates the enthalpy of air given dry bulb temperature and either relative humidity or dew point temperature, as configured by the Setup attribute found in the Details dialog box of the block.

Table 1. Enthalpy Block Inputs and Outputs

Name

Data Type

Exposed for Connection by Default

Description

Default Value

Inputs

Dew Point Temperature

Float

Yes

Indicates the dew point temperature of air, which is the temperature at which moisture condenses out of the air. If the Setup property is DP, this input represents the air dew point temperature that is used to calculate Enthalpy. If the Setup property is RH, this input is ignored.

14 °C,

57 °F

Dry Bulb Temperature

Float

Yes

Indicates the temperature of air as measured with a simple thermometer.

25 °C, 77 °F

Elevation

Float

No

Indicates the distance above or below sea level. Below sea level is represented with a negative value.

0 ft, 0 m

Relative Humidity

Float

Yes

Indicates the relative humidity of air. If the Setup property is RH, this input represents the air relative humidity that is used to calculate Enthalpy. If the Setup property is DP, this input is ignored.

50%

Range: 0-100%

Outputs

Enthalpy 1

Float

Yes

Indicates the air enthalpy.

21.5 Btu/lb,

50.0 kJ/kg
