Practical questions 1. Describe the methods of temperature measurement. Measure the ambient temperature. Use the provided thermohydrograph recording to evaluate the temperature parameters. 2. Use Assman's and digital psychrometers and appropriate tables to measure the humidity of air. Calculate the related values (absolute, relative and maximum humidity of air, saturation deficit, dew point) and evaluate the results from the health point of view. 3. Measure the air flow by means of a Katathermoeter and digital thermoanemometer. Evaluate the results from health point of view. 4. Measure the illumination intensity of the housing object. Calculate the illumination coefficient for the given case. 5. Calculate the required air exchange according to the production of water vapours in cattle for the given case. 6.
