Wet-Bulb Temperature is the lowest temperature air can reach through evaporative cooling at constant pressure, reflecting both heat and humidity. In data centers it sets the theoretical limit for cooling towers and adiabatic and evaporative systems, so low wet-bulb climates favor efficient water-side economization. It is a primary input to site cooling and climate assessments.
