Analysis of microclimate factors at Turda History Museum: relative humidity and temperature

Summary/Abstract: This study presents a detailed analysis of the relative humidity and temperature, as factors of the indoor microclimatic conditions in the Turda History Museum. Museum collections may evade the harmful impact of environmental factors thereon only through a rigorous control and strict monitoring of such factors. In this particular case, the climatic data (obtained by monitoring the relative humidity and temperature in the exhibition space), analysed in conjunction with other aspects, such as the visiting hours (the period when the museum is open to the public), the periods with a large influx of visitors, as well as the outdoor weather conditions point to the existence of two distinct periods. A period of low relative humidity, generally below 50% extends from November, once heating is turned on, until April, followed by a period when the relative humidity values return to normal limits that extends from May to October.
