What Does FWB Stand For?

FWB stands for Fahrenheit Wet Bulb

FWB, or Fahrenheit Wet Bulb, is a temperature measurement that reflects the cooling effect of evaporation and is critical for assessing humidity levels and thermal comfort in various environments. It is determined by placing a wet cloth around the bulb of a thermometer, allowing the evaporation of water to influence the temperature reading. This metric is commonly used in weather forecasting, HVAC systems, and agricultural applications to evaluate moisture content in the air and its impact on human and plant health.
