Abstract
Computer algorithms to obtain properties of saturated and unsaturated moist air are presented in this paper. The saturated moist air properties are calculated by the methodology developed by J. A. Goff and S. Gratch for their ASHRAE tables (1967 Book of Fundamentals, The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers). Sample calculations were performed using a computer program based upon the algorithms presented herein and the results are attached.
