Ground parking aircraft humidity levels linked to temperature changes, impacting flight safety.
The scientists studied how humidity changes around airplanes parked on the ground. They looked at different areas and how humidity and temperature are related. They created a way to calculate humidity characteristics and made models based on temperature. They found that humidity and temperature change at different rates, with humidity decreasing as temperature rises. The way the local environment changes is consistent compared to the outside environment. Sealing and temperature of the bays affect humidity levels. The predicted humidity values were close to the actual monitored values.
