Design engineering solution for humidity problem faced by metrology lab / Ridwan Imus

Metrology lab at Faculty of Mechanical Engineering UiTM Shah Alam had problem to control humidity. The relative humidity inside the lab now is around 80%- 90%. Heater had been installed before but humidity problem still exists. Metrology lab requires temperature about 20°C±1 °C and 20%-60% Relative...
