How is the humidity accounted for in the material properties?

Hello everyone,

I would like to know whether we can define the humidity using one of the material properties inputs, as there is no entry for it directly.

Best regards,

Hey Fillia,

Great question! Depends on what you are looking for, if you wanted to take into account the different material properties such as density and specific heat you can always customize the properties of your materials by clicking on the respective value and inputting a new one. There are plenty of online sources where you can find the different material properties of air at varying humidity levels, the main parameters that should vary are the specific heat and density.

On the other hand if you wanted to see how humidity impacts thermal comfort, our thermal comfort advanced results includes a field where you may input the relative humidity of the air.

All the best,
Victor
