Evaporation of Water: Error in Formula?
This equation is also giving me inflated evaporation rates: Using: A = 9m2 V = 0.5m/s Pw (at 25 deg. C) = 11.76 mmHg Ps (at 50% RH) = 23.53 mmHg Gives: m-dot = 2.84 kg/hr At this rate my pool will empty almost as fast as I can fill it. I am using the following equations for...- t3sseract

Evaporation of Water: Error in Formula?
I am trying to calculate the rate (g/m2) of water evaporation given Temperature, Humidity, Air Speed, elevation. The best source of an equation for this I have found is from engineeringtoolbox.com, but I have found a possible error in their calculation. (I am in a far off land with no access...- t3sseract
