#humidity

Cigar-humidor maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the numbers behind storing cigars right, so you buy the correct humidor and keep it at the perfect humidity. The capacity endpoint works out how many cigars an interior holds: interior volume × a packing efficiency ÷ one cigar's volume, where a cigar is a cylinder of its ring gauge (in 64ths of an inch) and length — a 9 × 7 × 3 inch interior holds about 40 Toros (ring 50, 6 inch) at a realistic 0.62 packing, leaving room for air and a humidification device. The media endpoint sizes the humidification: about one 60 g two-way pack per 25 cigars, replaced roughly every two months, so a 40-cigar humidor wants two packs. The seasoning endpoint covers a brand-new humidor — its Spanish cedar must absorb moisture for about two weeks at 84 % RH (one seasoning pack per 25-cigar capacity, or the distilled-water wipe-down) before any cigars go in, or the dry wood will rob them. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for cigar-shop and tobacconist apps, humidor-maker product pages, cigar-aficionado and collection-tracker sites, and buying guides. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. For room humidity or dew point use a psychrometric API.

Moist-air (psychrometric) thermodynamics as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The dewpoint endpoint computes the dew-point temperature and the saturation and actual water-vapour pressures from a dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity, using the Magnus-Tetens relation over water, es = 6.112·exp(17.62·T/(243.12+T)) hPa — the dew point is the temperature to which air must cool for water vapour to start condensing. The humidity-ratio endpoint computes the humidity ratio (mixing ratio) W = 0.621945·Pw/(P−Pw), the specific and absolute humidity, the vapour pressure and the moist-air enthalpy h = 1.006·T + W·(2501 + 1.86·T) kJ per kg of dry air, at any total pressure (default sea-level 101325 Pa). The wet-bulb endpoint computes the wet-bulb temperature with the Stull (2011) empirical fit and the wet-bulb depression, the gap between dry- and wet-bulb that widens as the air gets drier. Temperatures are in °C, relative humidity in %, pressures in Pa. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for HVAC, building-physics, meteorology, drying, greenhouse and data-centre-cooling app developers, comfort and condensation-risk tools, and engineering education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is moist-air psychrometrics; for ASHRAE ventilation airflow use a ventilation API, for the WBGT heat-stress index a WBGT API and for the standard atmosphere an atmosphere API.
