  function GetTDryBulbFromMoistAirVolumeAndHumRatio(MoistAirVolume, HumRatio, Pressure) result(TDryBulb)
    !+ Return dry-bulb temperature given moist air specific volume, humidity ratio, and pressure.
    !+ Reference:
    !+ ASHRAE Handbook - Fundamentals (2017) ch. 1 eqn 26
    !+ Notes:
    !+ In IP units, R_DA_IP / 144 equals 0.370486 which is the coefficient appearing in eqn 26
    !+ The factor 144 is for the conversion of Psi = lb in⁻² to lb ft⁻².
    !+ Based on the `GetMoistAirVolume` function, rearranged for dry-bulb temperature.

    real, intent(in)  ::  MoistAirVolume
      !+ Specific volume of moist air in ft³ lb⁻¹ of dry air [IP] or in m³ kg⁻¹ of dry air [SI]
    real, intent(in)  ::  HumRatio
      !+ Humidity ratio in lb_H₂O lb_Air⁻¹ [IP] or kg_H₂O kg_Air⁻¹ [SI]
    real, intent(in)  ::  Pressure
      !+ Atmospheric pressure in Psi [IP] or Pa [SI]
    real              ::  TDryBulb
      !+ Dry-bulb temperature in °F [IP] or °C [SI]
    real              ::  BoundedHumRatio
      !+ Humidity ratio bounded to MIN_HUM_RATIO

    if (HumRatio < 0.0) then
      error stop "Error: humidity ratio is negative"
    end if
    BoundedHumRatio = max(HumRatio, MIN_HUM_RATIO)

    if (isIP()) then
      TDryBulb = GetTFahrenheitFromTRankine(MoistAirVolume * (144 * Pressure) &
                                / (R_DA_IP * (1 + 1.607858 * BoundedHumRatio)))
    else
      TDryBulb = GetTCelsiusFromTKelvin(MoistAirVolume * Pressure &
                                / (R_DA_SI * (1 + 1.607858 * BoundedHumRatio)))
    end if
