Relative humidity, as reported by the LI-8100A, is a calculated variable that is essentially the product of two measured variables: chamber temperature and water vapor mole fraction. Sometimes the LI-8100A will report impossible values for relative humidity, giving the appearance that something is wrong with the instrument’s infrared gas analyzer. More often than not, a…
