BACKGROUND Up to 70% of atopic asthmatics have a positive skin test to the dust mite allergen Der p 1. Reduction of dust mite numbers by lowering room humidity control is one suggested technique for reducing dust mite allergen levels to clinically acceptable levels. Trials of this technique in temperate climates have reported mixed results. It has been speculated that one reason for this is tha...

Focus on data packet loss and time delay problems in wireless greenhouse measurement and control system, and temperature and humidity were taken as the research objects, the model of temperature and humidity information transmission was set up by decoupling technology according to the characteristics of wireless greenhouse measurement and control system. According to related theory of exponenti...

In order to achieve feasible and copacetic low energy consuming building, a robust and efficient air conditioning system is necessary. Since heating ventilation and air conditioning systems are nonlinear and temperature and humidity are coupled, application of conventional control is inappropriate. A multi-input multi-output nonlinear model is presented. The temperature and humidity of thermal ...

Mediaeval churches hold substantial historical and cultural values, organs, altars, paintings that need to be preserved. Many of these churches have no climate control systems installed. Thus the indoor climate is mainly determined by the outdoor climate. Focus in this study is on the possibilities to improve indoor climate in originally unheated churches to prevent and protect churches from mo...

Temperature and relative humidity are as major factors that stimulate exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB). The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of environmental temperature and relative humidity on the EIB in the pre-test and 5, 10, 15 and 60 minutes (1 hour) after the activity in the exercise (EXEG) and control (CONG) groups. Among 60 adolescent male students of Sport and Ph...

Humidity is one of important environmental parameters, which refers to the water vapor content in the air. As one of the fundamental abiotic factors, humidity determines an environment where animals and plants can thrive, also influences the human life. There are three items commonly used to describe humidity, which are absolute humidity (AH), relative humidity (RH) and specific humidity (SH) [...

In this study, we have designed a compact sample chamber that can achieve accurate and continuous control of the relative humidity (RH) in the vicinity of 100%. A 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC) multilayer can be used as a humidity sensor by measuring its inter-layer repeat distance (d-spacing) via X-ray diffraction. We convert from DOPC d-spacing to RH according to a theory giv...
