What you saying is that once you reach boiling point, whether under a vacuum or open to atmosphere, the only variables that play a role are heat energy input divided by heat of vaporization. I thought the amount of surface area also played a major role?

To further this Discussion. What equation would I use to qualify the evaporation rate of boiling water given a varying amount of energy input as well as a varying surface area?

So under a Vacuum you are assisting the evacuation of molecules on the surface of the water and allowing more molecules to vaporize. Assuming you could keep the water at a consistent temp of 322K, a consistent vacuum of 27.5 inHg., over a surface area of 24 Inches. What would the evaporation...

I am new to this site and would like to find some equations for water evaporation? I would like to understand more fully how placing water in a vacuum effects the rates at which it will evaporate? Any help would be greatly appreciated
