Sammendrag	Psychrometric analysis is the study of humid air (air-water vapor mixtures) and its properties. It is essential for designing and analyzing air conditioning, ventilation, and dehumidification systems. Psychrometric analysis relates dry-bulb temperature, wet-bulb temperature, dew point, relative humidity, and specific humidity through carefully constructed charts and correlations.	The Stefan-Maxwell diffusion equation describes how multiple chemical species diffuse through each other in a mixture, accounting for interactions between all species pairs. Unlike Fick's law, which assumes species diffuse independently, Stefan-Maxwell theory captures the coupling that occurs when species with different diffusivities move at different rates. This is essential for analyzing gas separation, combustion, catalytic processes, and reactive distillation.	The Thermal Resistance Network method uses electrical circuit analogy to solve heat transfer problems. It treats heat flow as analogous to electric current, thermal resistance analogous to electrical resistance, and temperature difference analogous to voltage potential. This powerful conceptual framework enables engineers to analyze complex multi-layer heat transfer systems systematically.
