• Includes new 2023 U.S. TMY3 Bin weather data that includes 8760 hourly data for 1000s of cities in the U.S.

• Includes a brand new feature called "templates" that allow you to store an unlimited number of psychrometric chart "look-and-feels".

• Includes more intuitive user-interface features such as double-clicking over the chart to open the state point form and plotting a point where you just clicked.

• Works on the latest version of Windows

• Includes access to an online licensee portal for self-registration

HDPsyChart Help is Now AI-Enabled

We have trained a simple AI model on the HDPsyChart V9 user documentation, and it is now available as a chat-bot on the HDPsyChart help page. Click here to try it out.

You can also access it directly from the HDPsyChart V9 software by selecting "Help" and the "Help - Web" submenu option.

HDPsyChart V9 Online Training

We are asked time and time again about offering online training of the HDPsyChart software. We do indeed offer 1-hour Zoom training sessions for small and large groups.

Our training sessions usually cover the basics of psychrometrics (for those engineers new to the industry) and then delve into using the HDPsyChart software application, itself. These sessions are always interactive so questions and comments are encouraged throughout the entire training session.

Also, we often record these sessions so you can watch them on your own later on or share them with colleagues.
