Vapor pressure — (also known as equilibrium vapor pressure or saturation vapor pressure ), is the pressure of a vapor in equilibrium with its non vapor phases. All liquids and solids have a tendency to evaporate to a gaseous form, and all gases have a tendency to … Wikipedia

Penman equation — The Penman equation describes evaporation ( E ) from an open water surface, and was developed by Howard Penman in 1948. Penman s equation requires daily mean temperature, wind speed, relative humidity, and solar radiation to predict E. Simpler… … Wikipedia
Psychrometrics — or psychrometry are terms used to describe the field of engineering concerned with the determination of physical and thermodynamic properties of gas vapor mixtures. The term derives from the Greek psuchron (ψυχρόν) (… … Wikipedia
Boiling point — This article is about the boiling point of liquids. For other uses, see Boiling point (disambiguation). The boiling point of an element or a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the environmental pressure… … Wikipedia
Clausius-Clapeyron relation — The Clausius Clapeyron relation, named after Rudolf Clausius and Émile Clapeyron, is a way of characterizing the phase transition between two phases of matter, such as solid and liquid. It is commonly learned in class. On a pressure temperature… … Wikipedia
Nucleate boiling — is a type of boiling that takes place when the surface temperature is hotter than the saturated fluid temperature by a certain amount but where the heat flux is below the critical heat flux. For water, as shown in the graph below, nucleate… … Wikipedia
