  • Patent number: 6327890
    Abstract: A improvement for high precision ultrasonic chilled surface dew point hygrometry for measuring the density of condensation and the temperature at the same location on the surface of the sensor. The improvement for high precision ultrasonic chilled surface dew point hygrometry includes a piezoelectric substrate, and further having a conventional thermoelectric cooler connected thereto and a plurality of spaced heat sinks conventionally depending from the surface. Conventional acoustic devices are used to propagate surface acoustic waves and surface skimming bulk waves across the surface of the sensor. A series of the surface acoustic waves is used to measure the density of the condensation at a particular location on the surface of the sensor.
