I have outdoor temperature and relative humidity transmitters that are inputs in a Controllogix PLC. I need Wet Bulb Temperature to determine how to control Cooling Tower/ heat exchanger bypass valves.

Ranges: Temp -20 to 120 deg F
RH = 0 to 100%

Does Anyone know the formula for calculating Wet Bulb Temp. from Dry Bulb Temp. and Relative Humidity???

Perl Scripts for what you want. Can probably adapt to Structured Text.
