As a general rule of thumb good beer ie IPAs porters stouts

As a general rule of thumb good beer (i.e. IPAs, porters, stouts) should be served at 7-10 °C. Assume Panini Pete’s serves their beer at 7 °C. The temperature in the lounge area is 20 °C and the relative humidity is 50%, will condensation form on your glass? (10 points).

Solution

Step1: yes it will condense.

Simple Conversion Between Relative Humidity And Dew Point In Moist Air is :

Step 2 :

Well known fact that indicate the amount of moisture in the atmosphere in many different ways. Two of these are the relative humidity and the dew point temperature.

To convert between the dew point and relative humidity, all require a calculator or mathematical tables, and most involve exponentials or logarithms. Now a very easy rule of thumb for this conversion. Simply put, for every one degree Celsius decrease in the dew point temperature, the relative humidity decreases by 5%, starting at a relative humidity of 100% when the dew point equals the normal air temperature. This holds well for moist air, that is, as long as the relative humidity is above about 50%.

Putting this to use, it\'s easy to figure out the dew point, and thus the expected comfort level, directly from the relative humidity and the temperature: for instance, if it is 30 °C outside, and the relative humidity is 75%, then the dew point temperature will be about 25 °C. It\'s also easy to see how much could be gained from evaporative cooling - in this case, at most 5 degrees. \"Further, by adjusting the relationship a little to account for the effects of temperature, it is also simple to use the relative humidity to compute the altitude of cumulus cloud bases without a calculator to a good approximation, usually within about 100%\".

Step3:

a nice science experiment to demonstrate the principles of humidity: students can figure out the dew point by starting with a glass full of water at room temperature, slowly adding ice cubes until dew just begins to form on the outside, and measuring the temperature of the water at that point. By multiplying the difference between the dew point and the air temperature by 5, and subtracting from 100% they get the relative humidity, which can then be compared with the reading on a hygrometer.
