How to Calculate Dew Point Temperature?

Measure the air temperature and relative humidity

Use the Magnus formula:

( gamma = ln(text{RH}/100) + frac{aT}{b+T} )

( T_d = frac{bgamma}{a-gamma} )

Use constants:

( a = 17.27 )

( b = 237.7^circ C )

Substitute:

( T ) = air temperature in °C

RH = relative humidity in %

Calculate ( gamma )

Calculate dew point temperature ( T_d )

Convert units if needed:

( T_d(^circ F) = T_d(^circ C)times frac{9}{5} + 32 )
