In the torsion hygrometer, the rotation of the hygrometric element is a function of the humidity. Such hygrometers are constructed by taking a substance whose length is a function of the humidity and twisting or spiralling it under tension in such a manner that a change in length will cause a further rotation of the element. 1, record 1, English, - hygrometric%20element
