Southeast PA | Background: Running a top dry with 48 vents. One on each roof sheet and 12 higher up on the roof. Each is basically the same size opening. 2 burner fans on the side of the bin. The 6 vents above the fans blow out and down, which then gets sucked back into the fans. It's probably 100-120° and 100% humidity. 6 of 48 is 12.5% of the air may be getting recirculated.
Questions:
Would heating it back to 180-200° bring rh down to about 6.25%? Rule of thumb is 20° temp rise cuts rh in half.
How much capacity am I losing (if any) by using that air instead of cooler, dryer air?
Would it be worth putting vents on those 6 that blow up into the air instead of down? It would also help keep the burner platform clean of sloppy wet beeswings.
