La formule est : é = ew - Ap (T - Tw) où é est la tension de vapeur dans les conditions d'observation; ew, la tension de vapeur saturante à la température Tw du thermomètre mouillé (par rapport à l'eau quand le réservoir de ce thermomètre est recouvert d'eau, et par rapport à la glace quand il est recouvert de glace); p, la pression de l'air; T, la température du thermomètre sec; et A, la constante psychrométrique. Le facteur A peut être trouvé empiriquement pour chaque type donné de psychromètre. La valeur numérique de A dépend des propriétés des thermomètres et de la vitesse de l'air ventilant les réservoirs. 3, record 1, French, - formule%20psychrom%C3%A9trique
