Find Normand point. From dry bulb point "x" draw an imaginary line toward the upper left, parallel to dry adiabatic lines. From dew point temperature marked "." draw another imaginary line upward this time parallel to the mixing ratio line. At the intersection of these two lines, the plotter has placed another small dot. This is the Normand point. 1, record 2, English, - Normand%20point
